[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 142761, member: 35"] [B]On the Mina tradition itself, this is a good analysis.[/B] Here is part of the article [I][COLOR="DarkSlateGray"] 1.2 ... Public reading of pothis installed in the dharamsals had become an essential part of the Sikh liturgy.7 [B]T[U]he Sikh sources are unanimous in their view that during the pontificate of Guru Arjan the Sikh scriptural tradition had come under a serious threat of interpolation at the hands of Minas, the rivals of fifth Master.8 T[/U]he sources at our disposal point out that in order to purge the spurious writings as well as to prevent interpolation into the Sikh text Guru Arjan decided to compile and canonize the Sikh scripture into a volume popularly known as the Adi Granth which he duly installed in the Harmandir in 1604.[/B] [U]According to the Sikh tradition the final canonization of Sikh scripture occurred in 1706 at Damdama, Talwandi Sabo when Guru Gobind Singh incorporated the hymns of Guru Tegh Bahadur into it. [/U]The tradition holds that it was the Damdama volume which was invested with Guruship by Guru Gobind Singh upon his death in 1708 at Nanded in Maharashtra. .... and also 3.2.1. GURU HAR SAHAI POTHI : The Pothi that was in the possession of Sodhi family of Guru Har Sahai, a village near Ferozepur in Punjab, had been claimed to be the original one entrusted by Guru Nanak to his successor, Guru Angad. It is said that Guru Arjan had inherited it through his predecessors and subsequently it remained in the possession of Prithi Chand and his descendents.15 [B]Recently, it has been argued that even though Guru Har Sahai Pothi was not the original manuscript attributed to Guru Nanak, "it may have been a copy of the manuscript that represented the core of the Sikh scriptural corpus."16 A[U]lthough the Pothi is no more available for examination, however, its characteristic features reported by the scholars who had an opportunity to examine it from close quarters point to the contrary.[/U][/B][U][/U] and also... 3.2.2. On the basis of available evidence we can safely say that neither the text of the Pothi had belonged to the main tradition nor it was even remotely concerned with the sources of the Adi Granth. [U]There are strong reasons to believe that in order to enhance their socio-religious clout as well as to appropriate maximum public offerings; the Sodhi family of Guru Har Sahai had circulated the Pothi in their possession as the original one belonging to Guru Nanak.[/U] Contrary to their claim, this Pothi's movement from Guru Arjan to Prithi Chand or his son, Miharban, is highly suspect. .[/COLOR][/I] [/QUOTE]
