greeting Guru ji

What I found particularly interesting was this bit:

 

The Sikh desirous of Guru’s Darshan,
Should go and have the Darshan of Granth Jee,(14)
After ablution early in the morning,
he should judiciously undertake its three circumambulation,(15)
Dohira
With folded hands he should be seated, seeking my audience,
And after paying obeisance to Guru Granth Jee, listen to the celestial exposition.(16)

 

I just thought it was an interesting (somewhat lost?) tradition to make three circumambulations of SGGS.  Is this still done anywhere?

normally doing parikarma of Guru ji is a given in most gurdwarey but now some gurdwardey are designed in such a way that to do this is much harder than necessary  and distracting as stage is too close . I've only seen bazurg doing once around
