The original bir written by Bhai Mani Singh Ji, which Guru Gobind Singh Ji dictated at Sri Damdama Sahib - is called the "DAMDAMI BIR" (the current day Guru Maharaaj da saroop, which included the Ninth Guru's Baani).

That particular Bir was taken by forced by Ahmed Shah Abdali, when he came from Afghanistan to attack India. No-one knows what he done with it. He could have taken it to Afghanistan or he could have burnt it.

However, Baba Deep Singh Ji (under Guru Gobind Singh Ji's instructions) had made four copies of the Damdami Bir. THese four copies were sent to the following Gurdware:

1/ Takht Sahib, Sri Akaal Takht Sahib

2/ Takht Sahib, Sri Keshgarh Sahib

3/ Takht Sahib, Sri Patna Sahib

4/ Takht Sahib, Sri Hazoor Sahib

Whether you can view these Birs at those Gurdwaras - i don't know. Perhaps someone who has been to these Gurdware and scene Maharaaj de saroop or talked to sewadaars from these Gurdware can put some light on this area.

Hi Guys,

Wasn't Baba Deep Singh fluent in both Arabic and Farsi(Persian?) he wrote the SGGS in one of the 2 languages I beleive so it could be used by the Sikhs in the Middle East. Does anyone know if any copies still remain present day?

Also, as of my understanding, because of the Iraqi regime, the gurdwara in Iraq is not allowed to serve langar =|

Can anyone confirm this, because this is the first time I've heard it. I allways thought the original copy was at Harmandar sahib.

Anybody?
