Nitnem Gutka of Guru Gobind Singh that became wet while crossing the Sarsa rivulet in December 1704 or 1705

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Nitnem Gutka ('gutka' is a Punjabi term that refers to a smaller extract of gurbani [compositions attributed to the Sikh Gurus, Bhagats, and others] in-comparison to a pothi, which is a larger extraction, but both are smaller than an entire Granth [complete volume or corpus]) of Guru Gobind Singh that became wet while crossing the Sarsa rivulet in December 1704 or 1705. While crossing Sarsa rivulet in full floods Guru Gobind Singh had a Nitnem Gutka (Sikh daily prayer booklet) in his waistbelt. This booklet became wet while crossing the river on this day on 20 December 1704 or 1705. The Gutka manuscript was conserved by the Sikh Heritage Foundation Hyderabad Deccan and Salar Jung Museum Hyderabad and retains the water marks of the Sarsa rivulet water damage as an important testament of Sikh history.
Date late 17th or early 18th century
