[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 4082, member: 189"] Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki fateh. Reference to Veer Tejwant Ji's post above. His points are valid. ALL Sakhis must pass the KASWATTI of GURBANI. 1. ONLY GURU NANAK is AAD GURU.... from WAHEGURU. Therefore His GURBANI is from his entire life...becasue even as a child of five sitting in front of the Panda/Pandit/maulavi...GURU JI Ucharred Gurbani. 2. But from Bhai lehna Ji onwards...GURBANI is ONLY recorded when Bhai lehna Ji became GURU ANGAD Sahib Jee... 3. Bhai Amardass Ji was bestowed Gurgadhi at a very advanced stage after nearly 22 years of sewa/naam simran.....and His Anand Sahib and other Gurbani comes after Gurgadhi. 4. Guru Amardass Ji is said to have lifted up the CHILD Arjun ( Guru Ji's grandson) and sat him in his lap and prdicted that this child was Guru Ka Dohta..GURBANI ka BOHITHA... the grandchild of the Guru..SHIP of GURBANI. And that was Exactly what GURU ARJUN JI was to become later as His GURBANI is the MOST PROLIFIC after GURU NANAK sahib jee.. 5. The Words MEHLA Pehla , dooja, teeja, choutha, panjvaan, nouvaan etc is already an indication that this GURBANI is written by the respective GURU JI SAHIBAAN. 6. We have Gurbani Pharmaan that declares GURBANI is DHUR KI BANI.... as such it is imperative that DHUR KI BANI can ONLY come to a GURU...and not to a "person" who is not yet GURU...THAT wouldnt classify as "DHUR KI BANI" 7. The same criteria applies to Bhagat bani...MOST if not all the "bani" written by the bhagats especially kabir BEFORE he attained "GURMATT" is REJECTED by GURU JI.
