GURU GOBIND SINGH ji had ordered us to worship guru granth.but now a days we are comparing it with the 'dasam granth'. in my view and what ever history i had read about guru ji they had written certain banis but not compiled any granth named 'dasam granth' .his order 'GURU MANYO GRANTH' SHOULD BE OBEYED OR we should start worshiping dasam granth as it is beimg started by some BABA'S in punjab???

The Dasam Granth is the compiled writings of the Tenth Master, Guru Gobind Singh. The Dasam Granth is installed on the Palki Sahib at Hazoor Sahib along with the Siri Guru Granth Sahib. I do not believe that we are placing the Dasam Granth higher than the Siri Guru Granth Sahib.

Keep in mind that the Guru lives in the Siri Guru Granth Sahib and also in the Sadh Sangat. We worship the "word of the Guru", Gurubani through singing and listening to recitation. Since many of Guru Gobind Singh's bani's are part of our daily Nitnem....we are meditating and using the bani of the Tenth Master in our worship even though it was not placed in the Siri Guru Granth Sahib. Guru Manio Granth is our dictate and still our focus.
