Summary

DescriptionFolio of a manuscript of 'Matra Sahib', attributed to Sri Chand (5).jpg
English: Folio of a manuscript of 'Matra Sahib', attributed to Sri Chand. Written in Gurmukhi script [in larivār form].
Manuscript of the 'Matra Sahib' attributed to Baba Sri Chand, son of Guru Nanak Dev and founder of the Udasi sect. Digitized by the Panjab Digital Library (acc. no.: MN-000797). It narrates a discussion between the Siddhs [Siddhas] and Sri Chand in Achal Batala on the day of Mahashivratri. Matra Sahib is the scripture of the Udasi sect. They attribute it to Baba Shri Chand. They often do prakash of it, similar to how mainstream Sikhs do prakash of Guru Granth Sahib. Most of their prayers, like their Aarti, come from this scripture. Matra Sahib is read by the Udasis every night. It is believed to have been written by Baba Sri Chand, and narrates a conversation between the yogis and Sri Chand at the Shivrati festival. The Matra Sahib is a spiritual composition by Baba Sri Chand Ji regarding the Udasi order and contains the intrinsic teachings given to the followers of the order.
