18. Guru Gobind Singh Ji Writes “Repeat The Naam SAT”

Dhan Dhan Parbrahm Parmesar
Dhan Dhan Satguru Parmesar ji

 

Satnaam ji

 

Kiram Jant Ji wrote a while back that "While N was having this experience (darshan of Guru Gobind Singh ji at the lake) she said that she could hear the Khalsa armies behind her all chanting ‘SAT SAT SAT SAT…’ "

 

It is interesting that 300 years later that majority of Sikhs associate only WAHEGURU WAHEGURU with Guru Gobind Singh ji and not SAT SAT SAT.  However with Guru ji’ kirpa we were shown this verse in our gutka by Guru Sahib Himself, confiming what Bibi N saw:

 

Guru Gobind Singh Ji writes the following Dohira that is in Artee

 

Aisay chand partaap tay
dayvan badhi-o partaap
teen lok jai jai karai
rarai naam sat jaap

 

After exalting Ad Shakti (God the Primal Power)
All divine beings were exalted.
The three worlds resounded with ‘Hail ! Hail !’
and the name (NAAM) of Truth (SAT) was repeated (JAAP).

 







Guru
Gobind Singh Ji wrote the following passage in praise of Dhan Guru
Nanak bringing the Great Mantra of SatNaam:-

ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ
ਨਾਨਕ ਅੰਸ ਕਲਾ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ, ਤਿਨ ਸੁਭ ਗ੍ਰੰਥ ਬਖਾਨੇ ॥

Satguru
Nanak is the true lineage (ans) and power (shakti) of the Lord,
He recited the pure scripture (granth).

ਨਾਮ
ਉਪਾਸਨ, ਨਾਮ ਅਰਾਧਨ, ਨਾਮਹਿ ਜਪੁ ਤ੍ਰਿਪਤਾਨੇ ॥

(In
the scripture it says) Worshiping the Name, Taking support of the Name,


and
reciting the name you shall be carried across (the terrifying ocean
that is the world)

ਸਚੁ
ਉਪਦੇਸ ਸੰਗਤਿ ਕਉ ਦੀਨਾ, ਬਸਤੁ ਨਾਮ ਨਿਰਬਾਨੇ ॥

Giving
the teachings of Truth to the Sangat,


the
Naam emancipated them



ਮਹਾਂਮੰਤ੍ਰ
ਤਾਰਕ ਸਤਿਨਾਮਾ, ਸੋ ਗੁਰੁ ਕੀਨੋ ਦਾਨੇ ॥੩॥

The Guru gave the
Great Mantra (MahaMantra) of “SatNaam”,


the
one which shall take you across (the ocean that is this world).
