Nander, MH (KP) - During the Holla Mohalla Smagam, Panthic organizations with patronage from Takht Sri Hazur Sahib, officially released a professionally recorded Sri Dasam Bani Kirtan Video CD along with an audio CD containing in-depth interviews of fourteen prominent Panthic scholars.
Anti-Panthic heretics, including so-called missionaries, Kala-Afghanis, and their ex-communicated Spokesman and Darshan Mallee (ਦਰਸ਼ਨ ਮੱਲੀਏ) cohorts have routinely been parroting a myth that certain parts of Sri Dasam Granth were off-limits to Sikh women, or could not be read in public.
Bibi Kamaljit Kaur, the daughter of well known Kirtani Bhai Jasbir Singh Ji Ghorrayvah, had recently recited verses from Chandi-di-Vaar, Sri Charitro-Pakhyian, and vaars of Bhai Gurdas Singh Ji at the 2010 Akhand Kirtan Smagam in Indore. Some of those verses were then professionally re-recored by a commercial studio.
Media producer, Shamaroo Video, has distributed the professional studio recorded verses of Sri Dasam Bani by Bibi Kamaljit Kaur under the label “ਖੰਡਾ ਪ੍ਰਿਥਮੈ ਸਾਜ ਕੈ.” This is video was formally released on March 1st at Takht Sri Hazur Sahib in front of a large congregation. Takht Sri Hazur Sahib Jathedar Bhai Kulwant Singh Ji honored Shahbaaz Khalsa sewadars, including Bhai Kavneet Singh who briefed the sangat during the occasion about the purpose of the VCDs release.

It should be noted that Sri Dasam Bani CDs from that Kirtan along with the scholar interviews (which includes interviews with two female scholars) were also released by Chardhi Kala Time TV directors, Bhai Jagjit Singh Dardi, Bhai Hapreet Singh Dardi and the Shahbaaz Khalsa-GURSIKH organization. Thousands of copies of the above were handed out to the sangat in recent weeks.

The Sangat's enthusiasm for Sri Dasam Patshah’s Rachna was evidenced at the literature and media stall setup by the Shahbaaz Khalsa sewadars at the Holla Mohalla celebrations in Nanded, where VCDs, CDs and books on Sri Dasam Granth Sahib were in high demand.
Despite the ongoing attacks on Sri Dasam Bani by self-styled missionaries and other heretics, the noble effort by Panthic organizations and media outlets must commended for bringing Sri Dasam Patshah’s Bani back in to the mainstream media.
Realizing the interest the Sangat has expressed in Sri Dasam Bani based audio-videos, Sikh organizations now plan to release Sri Dasam Bani Kirtan CDs and VCDs in the near future by noted Sachkhand Sri Harmandir Sahib Hazuri Ragi Bhai Balbir Singh Ji and Hazuri Ragi Bhai Inderjit Singh Ji, and others.
