TEXTUAL ANALYSIS<br />
Dr.Jaggi,s Book (<strong>Dasam</strong> Granth Kartitav-Authenticity,1966) documents different Birs<br />
having many variations in the total number <strong>of</strong> compositions. Some are missing in<br />
comparison with published Birs. <strong>Textual</strong> analysis also shows CHHAND COUNT<br />
VARIATIONS .This clearly shows that this Granth has no established text test but<br />
has rather evolutionary text. I am hereby producing charts from Jaggi (1966) in English.<br />
