The Adi Granth installed in the Harmandir

The scripture compiled by Sri Guru Arjun Dev Ji, written out by Bhai Gurdas, is ceremonially installed in the Harmandir with Baba Buddha as its first custodian.

The compilation drew on the Goindwal pothis and other collections, added Sri Guru Arjun Dev Ji's own hymns and those of the bhagats, and excluded compositions he judged spurious.[EoS][EoS][EoS][Mann]
