Holy Books
Sikh Scriptures |
The Sikhs have two Holy Books for their guidance and revelation of their underlying beliefs and principles as laid down by the Ten Gurus. These Holy Scriptures are called
- 1. Sri Guru Granth Sahib and
- 2. Dasam Granth.
The Dasam Granth is a composition primarily of the Tenth Guru, Guru Gobind Singh. The word 'Dasam' in Punjabi means 'Tenth'.
The Sri Guru Granth Sahib is more than a Holy Book for the Sikhs. They honor this Holy Book as their Living and Perpetual Guru and accord it the same respect as they did their ten human Gurus.
