Guru Granth Sahib

The Guru Granth Sahib is published and held in trust by the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee, the body that administers the historical gurdwaras, and the text compiled by Guru Arjan with its final recension attributed to Guru Gobind Singh is cited here from that committee's own custodial printed edition. It is authoritative for the text the Panth itself authorizes as scripture; the history of how it was compiled and redacted over time is a separate, separately sourced historical question. It is cited by Ang, the standard page number of the uniform 1430 page printed edition, so a specific citation can be checked against any printing.
