Alot of this chandi, devteh, durga in dasam granth/ sarbloh granth etc.. leaves alot of people baffled in my opinion. Hence why we have people thinking that these granths are not of the gurus. On the flip side the other pro side blame the others for not understanding.

I think what needs to be done is explanations of such concepts.

Dhan Dhan Satguru Maharaj Guru Nanak Devji was not like these fake devi devte. If this picture of Nirankar Saroop Guru Nanak was painted in a Gurdwara/e then the painter was not true Sikh, he was a brahmin in disguise of Sikh. It was malicious acts of individuals with malicious intent which prompted great Sikhs of Guru to come together and start Singh Sabha. I myself have not seen any such picture in any Gurdwara and rest assured if i did i will remove it immediatly whatever the consequence. Guru Nanak was not worshipper of Ik Onkaar, He gave the world the truth about Ik Onkaar, Ik Onkaar is in this world of Guru Nanak. Sikhs of Guru believe only in Guru and the unseen, unborn Nirankaar. These Devi Devte are for fateless wretched souls who will burn in hell forever while the Guru will guide and save his Sikh from jamdoots (including Devi or whatever). The Devi and other stuff is for lost souls who are not blessed by Guru, and Sikhs of Guru are not one of them.

This passage of devi ustatt is a translation and does not represent Sikh Philosophy.

Have you read that passage in krishna avtar. If you had you would not have written the above.

This is ustat of akal purakh and not any eight armed devi of Hinduism.

Devi in Dasam Granth is parkirti. It is ignorance to interpret Dasam Granth with Hindu terminology.

Dasam granth is not that simple granth where literal meanings are applicable. It is full of metaphors.

The original poster had given the below mentioned passage from chandi charitra. He calls it devi ji ki ustat.

. He needs to read it carefully and not pick at random some verses.Here devi is reference to power of akal purakh.It is important to know what type of devi is described in that ustat.

Below is given those verses.It is Eulogy of God and not any devi of Hinduism or Durga.

ਰਚੋ ਚੰਡਿਕਾ ਕੀ ਕਥਾ ਬਾਣੀ ਸੁਭ ਸਭ ਹੋਇ ॥੨॥

रचो चंडिका की कथा बाणी सुभ सभ होइ ॥२॥

I may compose the story of Chandika and my poetry be all good.2.

Thy light is shining in the world, O Powerful Chand-Chamunda!

It is you who is creator of chandi, who ferries across the people; Thou art the redeemer of the earth and destroyer of the demons.

Thou art Tams, the quality of morbidity, mineness and modesty; Thou art poetry, latent in the mind of the poet.

Thou art the philosopher`s stone in the world, which transforms the iron into gold that it touches.4.

Excuse me, but I did not just put the title "Devi Ju Ki Ustat", but Maharaj himself wrote it.

There is the link to the post that I put up, if you have an issue with Gurbani, talk to Guru Gobind Singh Ji.

I dont doubt your intentions Bhai Jvala Singh Ji, but you have to realise that readers will surely get confused unless you explicitly make it clear to the reader what exactly Sri Guruji is referring to with the use of word 'devi'. A brief explanation along with the line by line translation would be helpful. just my advice.

Veer jee, In Sri Dasam Granth Sahib, stories are REWRITTEN which means some parts of the story are just translated, some parts edited and some new parts added. This praise of devi is just the translation and these are not the views of Guru Gobind Singh Sahib Jee.

We are still not able to comprehend inspite of analysis by PJS and then beautiful line given by gurvah.

PLease note devi meaning in dasam granth is not same as the meaning of Devi in hindu literature.

Devi of dasam granth is not eight armed deity of Hindu faith.So do not be misled by word devi in

Dasam Granth sahib. This is the mistake kala afghana sect also makes.

Devi of dasam granth is shakti of akal purakh which is ever present, has no beginning and has no end.

This shakti creates and subsumes these deities.

ਤਾਰਨ ਲੋਕ ਉਧਾਰਨ ਭੂਮਹਿ ਦੈਤ ਸੰਘਾਰਨ ਚੰਡਿ ਤੁਹੀ ਹੈ ॥

तारन लोक उधारन भूमहि दैत संघारन चंडि तुही है ॥

Thou art the chandi, the killer of demons; Thou art the redeemer of the earth.

ਕਾਰਨ ਈਸ ਕਲਾ ਕਮਲਾ ਹਰਿ ਅਦ੍ਰਸੁਤਾ ਜਹ ਦੇਖੇ ਉਹੀ ਹੈ ॥

कारन ईस कला कमला हरि अद्रसुता जह देखे उही है ॥

You are the primal power, you are the source of shiva's power, vishnu's, lakhshmi and parvati

Chandi charitra ukti bilas.

Obviously Guru sahib means akal purakh when he writes ab devi ji ki ustat.

    • I was searching igurbani.com which gives correct pronunciation of Gurbani. I can’t remember all of it at once. I guess it relies on more practice, like more Sehaj Paths. The meaning becomes clearer. I have noticed slight variants in it. This could be because it’s written in old Punjabi.  
    • Veer Manpreet Singh, a lay preacher, claims that -Sikhs aren't supposed to worship Guru Granth Sahib ji. -We are only supposed to worship God as is written in Guru Granth Sahib ji. -We only "revere" Guru Granth Sahib ji.     He says a lot of other things in this video, some are good refutations of Hindu superstitions, but the reformers often go too far. Anyways, what he is saying about not worshipping Guru Granth Sahib ji is totally wrong. The reason is Guru Granth Sahib ji is Guru. Guru is Satguru. Satguru is God. We worship God. Therefore, we also worship Satguru (Guru Granth Sahib ji).   There are innumerable verses in Gurbani equating God and Guru. ਗੁਰੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਗੁਰੁ ਡੁਬਦਾ ਲਏ ਤਰਾਇ ॥੨॥ The Guru is the Supreme Lord and the Transcendent Master. The Guru floats (saves) the drowning one. p49   ਗੁਰੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਏਕੋ ਜਾਣੁ ॥ Know the Guru and God as One. p864   ਗੁਰ ਨਾਲਿ ਤੁਲਿ ਨ ਲਗਈ ਖੋਜਿ ਡਿਠਾ ਬ੍ਰਹਮੰਡੁ ॥ There is no one at par with the Guru. I have searched and seen the whole universe. p49 (If the Guru is the greatest in the whole universe, shouldn't we worship the Guru?)   I'd like to ask Manpreet Singh what is worship? Any reasonable definition would include obeisance, remembrance, and praise. Those are exactly the same things Gurbani says to do regarding Guru! Remembrance and obeisance: ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਅਪਨਾ ਸਦ ਸਦਾ ਸਮ੍ਹਾਰੇ ॥ Ever, ever, I think of the True Guru, ਗੁਰ ਕੇ ਚਰਨ ਕੇਸ ਸੰਗਿ ਝਾਰੇ ॥੧॥ and the Guru's feet I brush with my head's hair. p387   Praise: ਗੁਰੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਆਪਿ ॥ The Guru himself is the transcendent Lord and the supreme master. ਆਠ ਪਹਰ ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰ ਜਾਪਿ ॥੪॥੧੬॥੬੭॥ Throughout the eight watches of the day, O Nanak meditate thou on the Guru. p387   In fact, Gurbani says the way to find God is to worship (puja) of Guru: ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਕੇ ਚਰਨ ਧੋਇ ਧੋਇ ਪੂਜਹੁ ਇਨ ਬਿਧਿ ਮੇਰਾ ਹਰਿ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਲਹੁ ਰੇ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ Washing and bathing the True Guru's feet, worship thou them. In this way thou shall obtain my Lord Master. Pause. p1118   Could it be any clearer that we are to worship Guru ji?
    • Bro, reciting a shorter Chaupai Sahib is hardly "anti-Dasam". It's fine to argue that the longer Chaupai is more traditional, but the short one isn't anti-Dasam. That's like claiming shorter Rehras is anti-Guru Granth Sahib ji just because there are fewer selections from Guru Granth Sahib. It might not be traditional, but it's not anti-Guru Granth Sahib. I prefer the longer versions, but let's not exaggerate. Every tradition has a slightly different Rehras version. Nanaksar vs Taksal vs Nihangs and so on. The basic template for Rehras is at the beginning of Guru Granth Sahib ji. Later, Chaupai Sahib was added and Anand Sahib always follows as the end of a process. Then some sangats added more saloks to start Rehras and others were added at the end. Some additional selections from Dasam Bani were also added, but it wasn't the same ones for every sangat. The important thing is to not hate on each other for these variations.
    • Umm, so you're upset that this jatha did Chaupai the same way it's being done at Harimandar Sahib for 100 years? Shouldn't you be upset at the manager of Darbar Sahib? I'm not saying that Sikhs who are aware of certain issues shouldn't do the longer Chaupai, but there are only so many battles you can fight. Instead of calling some jatha traitors because they're doing the (for better or worse) "standard" Chauapai published by the SGPC, it would be better to change things from the central point. You can't fault the average Sikh for picking up the average Gutka and doing paath.
    • It's the same here in Toronto. Alot of the gudwaras here are political orientated and get tons of funding from the government-probably want them stay hush hush with all the BS that has been happening with India.  These guys are skewing gurbani. A complaint was sent to a ragi singh a couple of days ago in regards to a hukamnama.
