Takhat Sri Damdama Sahib Talwandi Sabo, Bhatinda, is the fifth seat of the authority of Sikhs. This place owes its importance to the literary work of Guru Gobind Singh Ji done here during his stay in 1706.

It was at Damdama Sahib that Guru Gobind Singh Ji prepared the revised and authentic version of the Adi Granth which is now being honored by the Sikhs as Guru Granth Sahib Ji, their perpetual Guru or spiritual guide or teacher. He added to the original version prepared by Guru Arjan Dev Ji the verses of Guru Teg Bahadur Ji. A large number of new converts joined the fold of the Khalsa here. Guru Gobind Singh Ji stayed at Damdama Sahib for nearly a year.

One of the Five Takhats or Seat of Authority of the Sikhs. This takhat is situated at Batinda in Punjab, India and is the place where Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth Guru of the Sikhs prepared the full version of the Sikh Scriptures called Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji in 1705. The Damdame Wali Bir or Damdami Bir as it is sometimes called was completed here by Guru Gobind Singh Ji. It was transcribed by Bhai Mani Singh Ji. The hymns of Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji , the ninth Guru and father of Guru Gobind Singh Ji were added into the Bir.
