Das Avatar

Submitted by admin24 on

This discussion stems from the Manuscript Page linked here.

I want to share another exciting discovery.

Our Manuscript hs0375 found in Ahmedabad area and completed in Samvat 1823 (AD 1767) has a work described as MOTO Das Avatar of Pir Shams in 582 verses (Gujrati script)

We have two Das Avatar of Pir Shams

Previously we discovered one Dasmu Avatar of Pir Hasan Kabirdin (524 verses in Khojki script) in manuscript hs0022

There is also one more in the Harvard collection of Indic manuscripts.

All this material demands more study and I hope the next generation will be able to study all of them and compare with earlier comments by Dr Gulshan Khakee and by Missionnary Bandali Haji.

Here is an article that discuss the concept behind the Das Avatar work and quote this manuscripts
