I really want to know if Narbud Singh's Bhatt Vahis are accepted as commandments. What is their historical value? And if Bhatt Vahis are accepted as the source , why is Dasam Granth discriminated against despite the existence of Mani Singh's letter? (Newston (talk) 10:49, 2 April 2011 (UTC))[reply]

What you are putting into the article are not proper references, it's original research. For example, you say that "However, It is not mentioned in the text of Guru Granth Sahib[1]or the Dasam Granth[2]" but neither of those texts are a list of commandments which makes the state disingenuous. Furthermore, your actual source for the statement are links to online versions of both texts with out page numbers. It's unreasonable to expect a reader to skim through both texts to confirm what you are trying to say.

Also you reverted some non contentious parts of my edit like replacing a picture and removing a dead link which is uncalled for.

To address your comments on the talk page I have to first point out that Wikipedia is not a place for doing original research. That being said the sources that I've read on this point are W. H. McLeod's book and Khushwant Singh's first volume. They both agree that the Guruship was passed to the Adi Granth, and Khushwant Singh points out that the Dasam Granth was not included on purpose^[1] ( I've misplaced Mcleod's book so I can't give a page number for it.)--Profitoftruth85 (talk) 20:58, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

These are words of Bhai Prahlad Singh situated in Rehitnama Bhai Prahlad Singh Rehitnama. These words were not written by Guru Gobind Singh. These are not present in Dasam Granth too. He may have uttered these words which was later copied down by Singhs in past.
