[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 127003, member: 35"] Aman ji Thanks so much. Here is one reaction on my part. Both Singhs are in essential agreement that vast portions of the so-called Dasam Granth are not the work of Guru Gobind Singh. Dr. Kulbir Singh has proceeded very systematically and has given an analysis of the fraudulent nature of so many claims that 10th Nanak is the author. The critique offered by the late Dr. Baldev Singh is also convincing. He too, when one reads his work, is systematic and methodical in his approach. Dr. Baldev Singh however tears right into the analysis of Dr. Kulbir Singh -- in spite of areas where they agree. Their disagreement is about specifics that are clear and easy to spot. I have learned a lot from both of them. When scholars are basically on the same side of an argument, it is important to affirm some kind of academic kinship, and then go on to explore disagreements and individual reservations. Failure to do this leaves fragments of understanding here and there for novices to try to piece together. The cost has already been huge, because the "other side of this story" is very well-organized and very well funded. The disciples of McLeod have created a critical mass of literature that is heavily influenced by sanatan theory. They hit the ground running years ago, and run together on and off the Internet. For that reason their writing appears to dominate the discussion of Sikhism if one does not know where to look. The scholars within sant samaj, and their fellow travelers, are similarly unified. Their web sites proliferate. When a friend or colleague or student tells me they plan to spend some time during the summer break learning more about Sikhism, my heart sinks. I panic a little inside. Which sites will magnetize them? What impressions will they carry away? And finally there are the numerous and ever growing number of beautifully produced web sites full of Puranic mystique that appeal to the citizens of the Age of Aquarius. They are attracted to kathas of bir raas and kundalini rising which they claim to find in the mesage of our gurus. This has its own special cache. And it is all backed by political funding.

That is my concern. I think that some learned forum members need to go through each author's writing here and show where there is common ground between these two brilliant men.
