It is pertinent to note that when and where is the first mention of each type of Ghar in Sri Guru Granth Sahib.

It is intriguing that although bani of Jap starts from SGGS 1, yet the first mention of Ghar is w.e.f. SGGS 14. The initial pages i.e. SGGS 1 to SGGS 13 are termed as initial pages and the bani/sabads on these pages are termed as initial bani.

This issue and its significance is elaborated in a separate chapter in this book.

Once Ghar is mentioned in first heading at SGGS 14, all sabads and chhants, thereafter, are necessarily in some Ghar.

Hereunder, is the list of Ghar of sabads, with SGGS page of their first mention in Sri Guru Granth Sahib;
