This is the name given to the tenth [[Bani]] in the second holy scriptures of the [[Sikh]]s called the [[Dasam Granth]]. This text spans from page 1355 to page 1356 of the 1478 pages of this holy book of the Sikhs. (Original text is over 1428 pages)

Khalsa Mahima(Pa: ਖਾਲਸਾ ਮਹਿਮਾ) is title of two poetic compositions written by [[Guru Gobind Singh]] in praise of the [[Khalsa|Guru Khalsa]] in poetry form.
* [[Khalsa Mahima (Dasam Granth)|Khalsa Mahima in Dasam Granth]].
* The other hymn is present in [[Sarabloh Granth]] and can be found in the [[Amrit Kirtan Gutka]] at [http://www.searchgurbani.com/main.php?book=amrit_keertan&action=shabadpage&ShabadID=1246 page 291] in Bisanpad metre explaining the meaning of Khalsa.

The summary of this Bani is narrated by Gobin Sadan:<br>
''"This has four verses. It delineates the glory that is associated with the Khalsa. Guru Ji explains the role of the Khalsa to the priests who had come to perform a yagna. He says that it is only through the Khalsa that all achievements have been possible for him."''


The summary of this Bani is narrated by Gobin Sadan at:
It is literally praise of the [[Khalsa]], it is a short poem by [[Guru Gobind Singh]] inserted at the end of the thirty-three Savaiyya in the Dasam Granth. The language of the poem is in ''Braj Bhasa'' (medieval Hindi) of the Mathura/Agra region. The poem recounts an incident which occurred during a Divali feast, which Guru Gobind Singh hosted  at Anandpur. On that occasion the former head of one of the discontinued Sikh manjis, the Hindu [[Pandit Kesho Gopal]], a [[Brahman]] who had not taken Amrit, was not invited to eat, until the Khalsa had feasted. Kesho felt slighted, because being a Brahman who had held a post as the Guru's masand he felt that he should have been served first and definitely not after the Khalsa had been feted.

Guru Ji explains the role of the Khalsa to the priests who had come to perform a yagna. He says that it is only through the Khalsa that all achievements have been possible for him."}}
In response Guru Gobind Singh recited his hymn exalting the Khalsa:
::"I have won my battles through the favour of my Sikhs,
::Through their favour have I been able to dispense largess,
::Through their favour my troubles have receded,
::And through their favour my prosperity expanded.  
::It is through their favour that I acquired knowledge.
::Through their favour I subdued my enemies,
::Through their favour am I exalted,
::There are, else, millions of such humble persons as me.  
::Let my body, my mind, my head, my wealth, and all that is mine
::Be dedicated to their service."  


==Khalsa mero roop hai khhas==
As in the hukamanaamaas, we see in this poem, the deep heartfelt feelings of Guru Gobind Singh Ji for the Khalsa Panth. One must remember that Guru Gobind Singh Ji was himself, a member of the Khalsa Panth, being the sixth man to be initiated, taking Amrit from the [[Panj Piares]].

Khalsa Mahima(Pa: ਖਾਲਸਾ ਮਹਿਮਾ) is title of two poetic compositions written by Guru Gobind Singh in praise of the Guru Khalsa in poetry form.

The summary of this Bani is narrated by Gobin Sadan:
"This has four verses. It delineates the glory that is associated with the Khalsa. Guru Ji explains the role of the Khalsa to the priests who had come to perform a yagna. He says that it is only through the Khalsa that all achievements have been possible for him."

It is literally praise of the Khalsa, it is a short poem by Guru Gobind Singh inserted at the end of the thirty-three Savaiyya in the Dasam Granth. The language of the poem is in Braj Bhasa (medieval Hindi) of the Mathura/Agra region. The poem recounts an incident which occurred during a Divali feast, which Guru Gobind Singh hosted at Anandpur. On that occasion the former head of one of the discontinued Sikh manjis, the Hindu Pandit Kesho Gopal, a Brahman who had not taken Amrit, was not invited to eat, until the Khalsa had feasted. Kesho felt slighted, because being a Brahman who had held a post as the Guru's masand he felt that he should have been served first and definitely not after the Khalsa had been feted.

In response Guru Gobind Singh recited his hymn exalting the Khalsa:

"I have won my battles through the favour of my Sikhs,
Through their favour have I been able to dispense largess,
Through their favour my troubles have receded,
And through their favour my prosperity expanded.
It is through their favour that I acquired knowledge.
Through their favour I subdued my enemies,
Through their favour am I exalted,
There are, else, millions of such humble persons as me.
Let my body, my mind, my head, my wealth, and all that is mine
Be dedicated to their service."

As in the hukamanaamaas, we see in this poem, the deep heartfelt feelings of Guru Gobind Singh Ji for the Khalsa Panth. One must remember that Guru Gobind Singh Ji was himself, a member of the Khalsa Panth, being the sixth man to be initiated, taking Amrit from the Panj Piares.

Such a man, in whose heart shines the full Divinely Radiant Light is a true a pure Khalsa.

He the Khalsa meditates on the Ever-radiant Light, day and night, and rejects all else but the one Lord from the mind.
He decorates himself with perfect love and faith, and believed not in fasts, tombs, crematoriums and hermit cells, even by mistake.
He knows none except the one Lord in the performance of acts of pilgrimage, charities, compassion, austerities and self-control.
