BIBEKBARDHI, (bibek= discrimination or discipline, bard/if = ocean; by implication, "guide to Sikh religious practice") is a collection of rahit namas or codes of conduct compiled in AD 1877 by Pandit Bhagvan Singh, a Brahman who converted to Sikhism under the influence of Baba Sumer Singh, celebrated high priest of Takht Sri Patna Sahib. The work has never been published and the manuscript, believed to be written in the compiler`s own hand, is preserved at the Dr Balbir Singh Sahitya Kendra at Dehra Dun. The manuscript comprises 140 sheets, written on both sides, of plain handmade paper of approximately foolscap size. Paper, obviously procured at different times, ranges in colour from off white to light cream.
