Please listen to Gyani Inderjeet Singh jee Raqbewale talking about a couple of Purantan traditions, which have become rare among the Sikhs.

  • The use of Coconut in ceremonies
  • Applying of Tilak on foreheads/weapons

Why have puratan sampradas abandoned these maryadas?

Gyani ji is reading from a granth, have any of the puratan samprada done complete analysis of these texts to see if they are authentic or not.  Also, all maryadas mentioned in Puratan granths should be compiled into a separate granth so we can have all the maryadas in one place.

I might have seen a coconut at Nanaksar. Daas will ask the Head Paathi, if they keep a coconut (wrapped in a red cloth) or not during Akhand Paaths.

Some traditions/rituals are specific to certain sampradas. Like applying of blood to shastars (Nihangs), showering of flowers on Maharaaj (Nanaksar), etc.

Excellent suggestion. IMHO, elite Sampradai Gyanis need to get together and compile a granth with all puratan maryadas in it (if it has already not been done).

@paapiman Veer Ji excellent thread i will add things when i find time to time on here. 

 

I do remember that Sri Dasam Granth Sahib Ji was edited under the british rule as banis like Brahm Kavach,Ugardanti, Sri Bhagauti Astotar and many more were removed from the spgc version of Sri Dasam Granth Sahib Ji. The parkash of Dasam Granth used to be done alongside Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji as well. Only these maraydas survived in Sri Hazur Sahib, Sri Patna Sahib and Nihang Dals as they kept the banis preserved in their gutkas pothis etc. 

 

Sri Rehras Sahib was changed at Sri Harmander Sahib Amritsar as well along with Chupai Sahib was shortned.

 

Here is a katha link by Sant Baba Gurbachan Singh Ji Bhindrawale on Rehras Sahib
