A beautiful painting of Guru Arjan Dev Maharaj, dictating Bhai Gurdas Ji while compiling the Adi Granth Sahib Ji.
The Harmindar Sahib (Golden temple) was completed in 1601. Guru Arjan Dev Ji decided to enshrine the spiritual wisdom of the Gurus and saints in a holy scripture which would be installed in the Harmindar Sahib. A monumental task undertook with complete humility, Guru Ji collected the hymns of the preceding Gurus and those of Hindu and Muslim saints and added his own and compiled the Adi Granth Sahib Ji.
A total of 5894 hymns in 1430 pages, of which 976 are of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, 61 by Guru Angad Dev Ji, 907 by Guru Amar Das Ji 679 by Guru Ram Das Ji , 2216 by Guru Arjan Dev ji and 937 by Hindu and Muslim Bhagats /saints and bards. Later Guru Gobind Singh Ji added 118 hymns of Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji.

Abhijit Anand"Three things have been put into the vessel- truth, patience, and meditation.
The ambrosial Name of God, the support of all, hath also been put therein.
He who eateth and digesteth it, shall be saved.
This provision should never be abandoned; ever clasp it to your hearts.
By remembering God's feet, we cross the world of Maya; Nanak, everything is extension of God."
(Mundawni Mohalla 5, p-1429)
Thanks For sharing Puneet ji!..
What a wonderful example of humility was portrayed by Panjvi Patshahi...
...When Baba Mohan (Guru Amar Das' son) refused to give the 2 pothis to Guruji,.. Guruji sat at the street below Mohan's attic serenading him on his tambura. Upon hearing the hymns sung by Guru Maharaaj, Baba Mohan came downstairs with the pothis and presented these to Guruji. As says the Gurbilas, the pothis were placed on a palanquin bedecked with precious stones. The Sikhs carried it on their shoulders and Guru Arjun walked behind barefoot. He refused to ride his horse, saying that the pothis were the very spirit of the four Gurus—his predecessors.

Shrinivas TilakHi Puneet:
October 2008 will mark the 300th anniversary of the "Declaration of the Granth as the Guru." As someone interested in hermeneutics my question is what is the hermeneutical significance of Guru Gobind Singh's action. Did his action invest semantic autonomy to the Granth itself thereby doing away with the need for the appearance of future Gurus? -

Guru Gobind Singh Ji passed on Guruship to "Guru Granth" and "Guru Panth". Physical appearance was never Guru of Sikhs.
