Raag Suhi

Sikh history records that on 30 August 1604, Pothi Sahib was installed at Harmandar Sahib by Guru Arjun Dev Ji. The 1st ever Granthi Sahib of the Sikh Panth was the revered Baba Buddha Ji.

The first ever Hukamnama for the Sikh Panth was this amazing Shabad, a Shantt from Raag Suhi.
The Divine Hukam covers the situation with unerring accuracy.

The Shantt starts with this amazing line.

“Santa ke karaj Aap khaloyia Har kam karavan aaya Raam.”

The Lord Himself has come to complete the tasks of His Saints.

“Dharat suhavi taal suhava vich Amrit jal chaiiya Raam.”

This is Dhur Ki Bani. It refers to the inner avastha of a Saint (Guru). Gurbani however tells us “Jo antar so bahar anant”
i.e. what is inside us is also outside.
