[Guest s133k_s1kh]

they were long but not that long lol ....

and how would u knw dat ??

[jassa]

6 - 7 times bhai santokh singh jee quoted in whole itehas of dasme pitta that guru sahibs hands touched there knees or at places that there arm were streached till knees .... never say they were longer then that .....

[Bir_Ras]

by shin im talking about the bi just after the knee. See the reason i say this is because thats what was in the sakhi. It was in punjabi and apparantly his hands did reach just past his knees.

[king singh]

amazing... so no one really knows gurujis height? any more info about guru gobind singh ji?

[jayd]

Everything in the human body is proportional, i.e. there is a certain ratio between height, size of feet, size of hands etc etc.

Guru Gobind Singh Ji's chola, clothes, shoes, gloves, turbans, and weapons, are preserved to this day. If some one takes these items and does some research, it is possible to find out the exact body shape of Guru Gobind Singh Ji.

On a related note, couple of years ago, the BBC used some forensic techniques to come up with what Jesus looked like:

most of must have heard about chamkaur sahibs jung .... one teer of dasmesh pitta bypass through at least 10 enemy warriors covered with iron shields .... before its stoped ... dasme pita can kill 10 people with 1 teer ... i have also learned that guru sahibs teer can pass through elephants .... and its not a karamat ... just shaster videya and a special kind of bow ...

the kaman guru sahib use is known as 9 tanka kaman ... a 9 tanka kaman is take a long wodden rod around 7 - 9 inches thick and can be of 6 - 8 feet in height should be very solid .... oil it ... then tie 9 maan weight on both side and exactly from the center hang it ... weights pulling it down from both sides .... after few days there will be a very little bend in that wooden rod ... now tie a leather chilla over it .... thats a no tanka teer ....

just imagine the muscle power of guru sahib ..... and those kind bows weighs arond 50 - 60 kg ....

only guru sahib know about there shasters we can only try and find out and that may be wrong.... so forgive me....

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Where did this information come from?

[savinderpalsingh]

WaheguruJiKaKhalsa!!WaheguruJiKiFateh!!

i even heard in a katha that

some singhs tied the bow to something fixed

and on the string below they attached weight

even when bow was not fully drawn the weight was above 250kgs

i dont doubt my Dasam Pitah

he had enourmous strength and a lot of abyas /training

[Annahadveer]

I am really a logical person and do not believe in Kramat's as per philosophy of Sikhism. The reason to say it was the information that I am about to share it might make few people doubt the authenticity of it....

Dashmesh Pita's Bow was 9 tanka....

1 Tanka = 25 kg

I believe that "tanka" is not a term of weight but force required to operate it.

The force required to operate such bow is 224 kg per square inch.

My sources are chosen after finding about the person who provides me with the knowledge and the scripts, so I am 100 percent positive that my sources are correct.

please choose your sources with care......as what you say effects lot of people......I recommend Dr Sukhpreet Singh, whos is Doctor by profession and most knowledgeable person that I have ever known. Who have spent years researching the documents in history and know 7 languages , which means he is really clear on the meaning of every single word.
