Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Folio of the Ragamala [alt. spelt as 'Raagmala' or 'Ragmala'] composition of the Kartarpur Bir. Kartarpur Bir (the word 'bir' refers to a manuscript or codex of a Sikh scripture, alternatively spelt as 'Kartarpuri Beerh', the word 'Kartarpur' refers to where the manuscript is kept) of the Guru Granth Sahib. The Kartarpur Bir is one of the three main recensions of the Sikh primary canon, the Guru Granth Sahib. This was the original manuscript prepared by Guru Arjan and his scribe, Gurdas Bhalla, and installed in the Golden Temple complex in the year 1604. This manuscript is held by the Sodhi descendents of Dhir Mal from the village of Kartarpur, Jalandhar district, Punjab, India. It is only displayed to the public once a year on the day of Vaisakhi (alt. spelt as Baisakhi).
