Sabad Patshahi 10

Information

• These hymns are primarily composed in Braj and Hindi languages, with plentiful use of Sanskrit words, except sixth hymn, which is composed in Punjabi with some Persian words.
• Excluding the sixth, all other hymns have three Padash and Rahau placed in the beginning of the Shabads.
• Sixth hymn was composed at Machhiwara whereas others were composed at Anandpur Sahib. The ordering of hymns was given by Bhai Mani Singh.
• The only six Ragas present in Dasam Granth are in the title of hymns.
• These Shabads deal with futility of asceticism, idolatry and attachment.
• Shabad Hazare is a title given to collection of these Shabads. Though it is not present in main text and the meaning is not too clear but traditionally it is believed that each Shabad has the merit of a thousand. Some scholar link the word "hazare" word to the Persian word "Hazra".
