I am posting the 'Shabad' for a specific query. I am told by my wife that following ‘shahabd’ is also to be recited as a prayer to keep away the evil spirits. I am not aware of this and would like comments of learned members on this. It is called as –'sulhi-paath'. and appears on ang 825.[;Seems to be controversial to me and have formed no opinion on this as yet and do not do it as a Paath.]
