Sabad Hajare Patisahi 10 - Sabad 05: Creator Ruler | The Sikh Cast | SikhRI

Introducing Sabad Hajare Patshahi 10, new translations and commentaries of Guru Gobind Singh Sahib's composition. Harinder Singh (Innovation Director) and Jasleen Kaur (Research Associate) discuss their learnings and challenges while engaging with the words of this composition. The unique contexts and subversions these compositions reveal are a treat for those who yearn to get to know Guru Gobind Singh Sahib and those who yearn to celebrate Guru Gobind Singh Sahib. In the fifth composition of the “Sabad Hajare Patisahi 10” (popularly Shabad Hazare Patshahi 10) series, Guru Gobind Singh Sahib emphatically declares that anyone created or formed by the 1 cannot be confused with the 1 and must not be accepted as the 1-Creator. Guru Sahib crumbles the power and magic of the multiple gods and states only the 1 can be termed the Supreme Ruler. In this sixth podcast, Harinder Singh and Jasleen Kaur explore Guru Gobind Singh Sahib’s utterances on the Creator Ruler, and his guidance of considering IkOankar as the only true Ruler. They contextualize this composition in the larger popular context of attaching allegiance to or identifying with smaller rulers and incarnations of deities and demons. Sabad ਕਲਿਆਨ ਪਾਤਿਸਾਹੀ ੧੦ ਬਿਨੁ ਕਰਤਾਰਿ   ਨ ਕਿਰਤਮ ਮਾਨੋ॥ ਆਦਿ ਅਜੋਨਿ ਅਜੈ ਅਬਿਨਾਸੀ   ਤਿਹ ਪਰਮੇਸੁਰ ਜਾਨੋ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ॥ ਕਹਾ ਭਯੋ ਜੋ ਆਨਿ ਜਗਤ ਮੈ   ਦਸਕੁ ਅਸੁਰ ਹਰਿ ਘਾਏ॥ ਅਧਿਕ ਪ੍ਰਪੰਚ ਦਿਖਾਇ ਸਭਨ ਕਹ   ਆਪਹਿ ਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਕਹਾਏ॥੧॥ ਭੰਜਨ ਗੜ੍ਹਨ  ਸਮਰਥ ਸਦਾ ਪ੍ਰਭ   ਸੋ ਕਿਮਿ ਜਾਤਿ ਗਿਨਾਯੋ॥ ਤਾ ਤੇ ਸਰਬ ਕਾਲ ਕੇ ਅਸਿ ਕੋ   ਘਾਇ ਬਚਾਇ ਨ ਆਯੋ॥੨॥ ਕੈਸੇ ਤੋਹਿ ਤਾਰਿ ਹੈ ਸੁਨਿ ਜੜ੍ਹ   ਆਪਿ ਡੁਬ੍ਯੋ ਭਵ ਸਾਗਰਿ॥ ਛੁਟਿਹੋ ਕਾਲਫਾਂਸ ਤੇ ਤਬ ਹੀ   ਗਹੋ ਸਰਨਿ ਜਗਤਾਗਰ॥੩॥੧॥੫॥ Translation Creator Ruler ‍What is the Ruler? Kalyan Sovereign 10 Do not accept anyone else created as the Creator. Consider the First, the Unborn, the Unconquerable, and the Imperishable as the Supreme Ruler. Pause-reflect. So what if many came as incarnations in this world, so what if Hari-Vishnu-Krishna killed ten or so demons? Proclaimed himself to be brahma-creator after showing many plays. The Divine is ever capable of destroying and carving; how can that 1 be shown and measured? This is why no one can save themselves from the strike of the sword of All-Death. O ignorant! Listen, how can the one who is drowned in the world-ocean ferry you across? When you take refuge in World-Source, only then will you be free from the noose of death.
