Like Dasam Granth Issue, Bhagat Bani was also one of controversial issue which was started by Teja Singh who was also against Dasam Granth. Bhagat bani was introduced to Guru Granth Sahib by Fifth Guru Guru Arjun Dev. Since it is part of Guru Granth Sahib a Sikh always interpret acc. to Gurmat. Since some parts of Bhagat Bani was considered which are following:

Bhagat Namdev Bani

Teja Singh Bhasauria targeted Bhagat Namdev’s work for according to his views this was not Sikh, but Hindu. One particular ‘Shabad’ (ballad) he hated occurs in 'Raag Bhairo'. Teja Singh is the same person who says that Dasam Granth was not Sikh scripture.

Saint Kabir

Kabir finds Niranjana to be the creator of the world; maya or woman. And this woman stands between man and god. She is there to entice him away from Him. Kabir composed no systematic treatise; rather his work consists of many short didactic poems, often expressed in terse vigorous language in the form of Padas, Dohas and Ramainis (forms of poetry in Indian languages). Besides his work recorded in 1604 A.D., in Guru Granth Sahib by Guru Arjan Dev, Nanak V and preserved inviolate since, two other collections exist - Kabir Granthavali, and Bijak. In his poems, he was quick to tell the illustrations of moral and spiritual truth in the incidents of everyday life and many of his similes and metaphors are very striking.

Question is if Kabir is against woman, and Gurmat treats woman equal to man. Why compositions of such person are added who himself is not khara acc. to Gurmat? Woman is characterised as "a black cobra`, thc pit of hell and the refuse of the world.

Bhagat Ravidas

Spokesman Supporter of Anti Dasam Granth Party

Saint Sain

ਵਾਰਨੇ ਜਾਉ ਕਮਲਾ ਪਤੀ ॥੧॥

Non Gurmat treats Kamla Pati as Vishnu. Kamla was Lakshmi and his husband was vishnu. So The line is used by some anti forces to proove that Bhagat Sain was follower of Vishnu and he is Dacrifice to lord of Lakshmi.

but Acc. to Gurmat Kamla Pati means the Husband of Kamla i.e Lakshmi or maya.
