Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji

I was told this story that there was one Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji which when read would make the reader blind. I’m not sure this is true I would like it clarified. It was said that the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji was not finish in the writing stage and something had stole it, so some sort of ‘curse’ was done over whoever would read it, resulting in them losing their eyesight.

Is this true, or has this been made up? Apparently, it was called the Daasam Granth

thats just an insult on Guroo Sahib, guroo sahib ji isnt a book, saying that "reading" a certain saroop of Guroo Granth Sahib Ji Mahraj can cause u to go blind, is like saying that hearing Guroo Gobind Singh Ji speak can cause u to go blind, its a really disrespectful thing to say. Please say who is spreading such an idea, it is important to know.

Dasam Granth is NOT a Saroop of Guroo Granth Sahib Ji, it is a collection of sum of Guroo Gobind Singh Jis banis, with literature by other authors as well,but lets not go into that...

The way I heard it was:

It was the Adi Granth composed by Guru Arjun Dev Ji was stolen by some people. This was during Guru Gobind Singh's time, and he re-read it by heart and had it rewritten. There was only one change; one word from Khalasaa, to Khalsaa--I'm not sure why, I heard a few different reasons, maybe to make it different from the one that was stolen, maybe it was actually just an error, or maybe he just felt like it was better for some reason, I dunno. Anyways, then he said that whoever read that one would go blind, and supposedly to this day nobody has done so.

It's just what I've heard, I also don't know if it's true or not.

saroop wasn't stolen, it was kept by someone and when guru gobind singh jee asked for saroop to be returned, the asnwer given was "if he really is nanak's jot then can he not make another saroop?" and guru sahib did so. this bit is correct.

i have never heard of this. what i've come across is that "kartarpur" (i think) saroop was not complete.

i have heard this as well. but for some reason i dont want to beleive in it

I dont think that it goes that way!! i mean the part about re-writting the Guru Granth Sahib...

Most of the Guru Granth was washed away while Guru Guru Gobind Singh Ji was crossing the Yammuna River in Paunt after being ambushed. So he re wrote most the Guru Granth Sahib of his mind...

Sat Sri Akal;

The bani written by Gurus is mostly written only in praise of God. In sikhism there is no place for any superstition, so my friends it is just a myth.

The bani was washed away in Sutlej when Guru gobind singh was crossing it, so they have to create again.

If anyone thinks reading any saroop can make any person blind, it is just ignorence and you have no understanding of God.

As we read bani only in praise of God (except nihangs who read dasam granth too), it is very ironic that people thinks that reading bani from a saroop will make them blind.

So we should not indulge in spraeding myths, and just ask yourself whether any bani can do any bad to anyone?????????

never fear any bani of Guru written in any saroop will only help people (of all religions) and can never do any wrong. If we have even slight fear it is our doubt on our Guru and it is a wekness in our character.

regards.

One of the most nonsensical things I have heard in association to SGGS.

The whole philosophy of the SGGS is against such madness and illogical happenings, magic and miracles.

More evidence of Sikhs who cant understand the basics.

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
