ਬ੍ਰਹਮੰ ਸੁ ਕਵਚ ਆਦਿੰ ਜੁ ਪਾਠ । ਦਿਨ ਰੈਣ ਠਾਂਢਿ ਠਾਟੰਤ ਠਾਣ । ਸਤਸੈ ਕਥਾਂਨ ਕਥਤੇ ਨਿਧਾਨ । ਜੋ ਗਿਨੈ ਸੁਧ ਬੇਦਾਨ ਜਾਨ ।20। ⁣

Brahm Kavach and other similar Banis would be recited day and night while standing with music, the 700 Saloks of the Markhandey Puran [which is the Chritar Chritar] was expounded on by the Treasure Trove [Guru Gobind Singh], which has also been carefully explained and understood in the Vedas. ⁣
