Guru Ji said – “Sab Sikhan ko hokam hai Guru Manyo Granth” meaning “All Sikhs are commanded to take the Granth as Guru” So today if asked, the Sikhs will tell you that they have a total of 11 Gurus. Guru Gobind Singh said before his demise that the Sikhs were to treat the SGGS as their next Guru. The SGGS was given the Guruship by the last of the living Sikh Masters, Guru Gobind Singh Ji in 1708. The holy text spans 1430 pages and contain the actual words spoken by the founders of the Sikh religion ( the Ten Gurus of Sikhism) and various other Saints from other religions including Hinduism and Islam. The Sikhs treat this Granth ( holy book) as a living Guru. Guru Granth Sahib or Sri Granth Sahib Ji or SGGS for short, is more than just a scripture of the Sikhs.
