Satnam Satnam WaheGuru ji meaning:
Waheguru is a term most often used in Sikhism to refer to God, the Supreme Being or the creator of all. It signifies „Wonderful Teacher” in the Punjabi language, but in this case is used to refer to God.
Waheguru is the primordial Mantra. The first mantra. The word Vaheguru is made up of 2 words: Vaah(e) and Guru. Vaahe or Vaah is an euphoric expression of wonder and awe. Therefore it is often translated as wondrous or wonderful. Guru derives from 2 words. Gu signifies darkness, and Ru (Roo) signifies light.
Therefore Guru means that power, being, and presence, which dissipates darkness and brings light, in other words Enlightener. Cumulatively, the name implies wonder at the Divine Light eliminating and purifies spiritual darkness.
It might also imply – Hail the Lord whose Name eliminates and purifies spiritual darkness. Hence, the two words constituents of Vaheguru (Vaahe and Guroo) implies that consciousness state of wondrous ecstasy and offering homage to the Divine Creator Being.
Guru Gobind Singh, the 10th Guru of the Sikhs (1666-1708), used „Waheguru” in the invocatory sacred formula („Ik Onkar Sri Waheguru ji ki Fateh”, besides the more traditional „Ik Onkar Satguru Prasada”) at the starting of some of his compositions as well as in the Sikh salutation („Waheguru ji ka Khalsa Waheguru ji ki Fateh”).
Sat Nam is a potent mantra frequently used in Kundalini Yoga and amongst its practitioners.
Sat signifies Truth. TRUTH, in this context points to the Almighty. One that is immmortal. The one that is, was and will be existing forever. Everything that is mortal is false and has no real substance.
Naam means Name. Name of God, in real and more deeper sense it does not reflect a word, it is His Existence. Every religion and traditional spiritual path reveals different names of the Divine.
