Anand Sahib

[Kurbaan tere Naam noo]

I was listening to the Chardikalla Jatha's kirtan program and they came out with this really good point about Anand Sahib...why do we read 1-5 pauris and then jump to the 40th pauri?

I don't see a short version of the Anand Sahib within Guru Granth Sahib Ji, does that mean we should actually read the full baani within Rehras Sahib?

What are your views on this topic?

with rahiras sahib i believe we do the short version for 'bhog'

even when doing bhog of food at Gurdwara the person doing it should be doing the short version of anand sahib...it is usually done when there is degh made as well.

But there is no actual evidence or rehatnama, which states that we should read 6 pauris of the Anand Sahib. In America, the white sikhs actually recite the whole of the Anand Sahib, as they were directed by Harbhajan Singh Yogi to do so...wel that's what i've been told. I just think Sikhs have shortened the baani either because of time or that they can't be bothered to do the full version.

i dont think so...Im prety sure Ive specifically seen that only 6 pauris are suppoesd to be read for bhog.

Waheguroo jee ka Khalsa!

Waheguroo jee kee Fateh!

I've often wondered about that myself. Out of couriosity, then do the 3HO sikhs do the full Anand sahib with Rehras Sahib and after keertan?

thanks :lol:

Yeh from what i know of, i think that they do the full Anand Sahib within Rehras and before the Ardas!

Hmmm...interesting!
