Yes that was original Granth by Guru Arjan Dev in 1604. The original one still exists.

10th Guru added 116 hymns of his father. This is called copy of Damdama and declared Guru.

In the Damdama Saroop the Salok 54 in Salok Mahalla 9 is by Guru Gobind Singh Jee. Older versions have Mahalla 10 written.
 

Also the word Khalsey is by Guru Sahib.

Guru Arjan Dev Ji* bro. I know it's probably an honest mistake but I see many Singhs adding Maharaj and Sahib on the first and last Gurus but then completely forget to even add "ji" on the others lol.

Perhaps it got the name "Adi Granth" after Guru Gobind Singh Ji compiled the final version and passed Gurgaddi onto it? Just because "Adi" ofc means "half" in Punjabi so maybe people started calling it "Half Granth" after the new "full" version was compiled?

Reddit bro. We've covered all the major topics on here a long time ago. All that's left now is more modern news, which is more convenient to share on Reddit due to being able to upload more media and plus there are more people there anyway. Then people don't need loads of different passwords for numerous forums as it's all in one place

We're still here bro don't worry  . The Singhs on Reddit aren't as nice or knowledgeable as those on here, I don't really like them. For me, this site was a staple of London singhs back in the 2000s which I love. Back when we repped Patkas, Shahi Turbans and Dumalla Sahibs instead of a little black durag tied w a patka cos we're scared to look like real Singhs with a joora on our heads like Maharaj told us to and rep the panth
