Bani Mahala 9 - Rag Gauri

Rag Gauri

In the Guru Granth Sahib, there are fifty-seven saloks and fifty-nine Sabads revealed by Guru Teghbahadar Sahib (1621-1675). While the saloks are recorded without any prescribed rag (musical mode), the Sabads are recorded under fifteen different rags. Under Rag Gauri, the Guru has revealed nine Sabads, which are recorded on page 219-220 of the Guru Granth Sahib. Out of these, seven Sabads comprise of two stanzas each and two Sabads comprise of three stanzas each. The stanza of rahau in each Sabad is separate from these stanzas.
