i am a bit confused at what you are saying, but if ur saying what I think you are saying.
yes and no. depends on your own sharda. Putting the picture here though was as a seva to sangat to show the beadbi happening at the museum. Also, just showing a pankti of japji sahib does not make the picture a bir of guru sahib. guru sahibs bir is a puran saroop that contains all of the jot of gurbani and the gurus.
there are many people who will make sure they have covered their heads, taken
shoes off and washed hands before viewing gurbani on a computer, there are others who dont. this is then a personal choice. but it is not a complete puran bir of guru sahib either way.
So are you saying that partial displays of Gurbani are OK and do not constitute Be-adbi?
If so, then this totally goes against the argument being deployed to get the display of the Dasam Granth being removed where it is being argued that regardless of the the status of the Dasam Granth as a whole it contains Banis such as Jaap Sahib, Swayye and Chaupi and so should be removed from display. If this is the case then why is it OK for someone to post pangti's from Jap Ji where anyone can read them regardless whether they are wearing shoes, have head covered etc., but its not OK for Dasam Granth to be displayed at British Library?
I'm just trying to understand why we have double standards for when Gurbani is in different forms.
On the same point. Copies of the Guru Granth Sahib can be downloaded in pdf format from the Internet. This can be done by anyone, Sikh, Muslim, Hindu, Christian, Atheist. Should we not also control this so that these copies are not subject to Be-adbi? After all, does a copy of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib cease to be a Guru just because it is in soft format rather than a bound hard copy?
What are we going to do about these copies of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib that are lying on people's hard drives? What is the correct Rehat when reading these? Should we put a Rumallah over the screen when we double click on the file? How do we enforce this?
