Talk:Deh Shiva Bar Mohe Eha

message: In Chopai, Guru Gobind SIngh cleared this fact ਮਹਾਂਦੇਵ ਕੌ ਕਹਤ ਸਦਾ ਸ਼ਿਵ ॥ ਨਿਰੰਕਾਰ ਕਾ ਚੀਨਤ ਨਹਿ ਭਿਵ ॥੩੯੨॥. Mahadev ko tum log SADA SHIV KEHTE ho, Sada shiv o nirankar hai jisko tum log pehchante nahi. This is proof that Hindu lady is not Shiva but Power of Nirankar or HUKAM is SHIVA.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.110.241.229 (talk) 03:42, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: If GURU GOBIND SINGh does not believe MAHADEV as SHIV how could he call HIndu lady a SHIVA?

message: Deh is the word for physical body in many Indian languages as well as it being the root word for body in many Indo european languages.  The translation was incorrect in that it assumed deh to mean 'to give' which is the translation to 'dey' (no h sound).  Siva is definately referring to the hindu mythological diety Siva.  However the mistranslation of Deh had caused the whole of the poem to lose meaning.  
If you read it as dey/to give the poem does not make sense.
it would then mean, 
'give me a boon lord shiva, dont be afraid to do the good deed, dont be afraid to go into battle, be confident in winning.' 
thus the whole poem would become a sermon to shiva to go into battle as well as to give you a varr/boon
all because of the mistranslation of one word 'deh'   — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gundarsemann (talk • contribs) 06:51, 25 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Deh is word for physical body 

message: The word is Shivaa not Shiva.  Shiva refers to the Godhead in its transcendental, unattached, form.  Shivaa however is in the feminine and refers to Shiva's Shakti (Durga).  Durga is Shivaa (double aa sound).
In this respect what Nabha Singh is said is correct
--
I just wanted to point out that the Sikh belief is that all Gods are the same, and that many references to Hindu Deities are made several times in the Guru Granth Sahib. We refer to God as Waheguru, but also, Allah, Ram, Krishna, and Shiva. God is Nirgun, and Hinduism has this belief, but personifies it with Vishnu or Shiva.
Nirgun found in many religions

thread_title: Siva = Shiva

message: Or... Allah or Yehova or Siddartha???, or one of the many other dozen other names ? If you disagreed with his teaching so much ???
Why was he addressing dumb Hindus ? I mean why not intellectual Jews or Druids or New Age Hippies or 3HO for Christ sakes ?
Did the name 'Shiva' become a hot potato during the 80's as with many other Gods names ?? Seems as if it did. And if it did its a shame that the authenticity of great works have become eroded, neglected, ignored at the expense of mid-term political agendas that have sweet FA chance of seeing the light of day. 
As far as the dumb hindu sense goes, the name'Shiva' ONLY existed in the Hindu sense
:All names are mentioned, in sggs, but to teach that none is what people think them to be. By the way hindus are not dumb Hindus or the dumb hindu sense. This reflects on your lack of knowledge of history. and i don't need to explain about the great ancient indian civilization. OkAjjay (talk) 04:41, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Maybe if I took the name 'WaheGuru' and changed its meaning

message: "I wonder why someone is trying hard to dispute few hundered year old history by insistting "this Siva is different from that Shiva". I guess need for modern day Sikhs to have a distinct identity as a separate tribe is so strong that they are not willing to see reason. The historical fact is that none of the Gurus claimed Sikhism (panth is not religion its a path, I hope sikhs don't negate Saskrit/Persian root of their own language) as separate religion; and all allegories and stories or spiritual guidelines they used and compiled in their books were being practices by Indians (Hindus which what gurus really were). There was no new philosophy or Gods' names introduced by any of the Gurus. I am sure they wouldn't be very happy if Gurus could see what their followers are doing today to their teachings.All Sikh scriptures are full with names like Govind (Vishnu), Brahma and Bhagwati. Now please don't say they are not what they are too. You want to call Shiva demi-god, your choice.. no skin off my back ! I am an athiest. But your need to negate history is almost childish. And BTW "Singh" was also not Dasham Guru's invention, it was already used by Rajputs just as "Khan" has nothing to do with muslims, it's just that every single idiot convert in Indian sub-continent wanted to change his family name to the honorarium used by Mongol tribes for their leaders."

message: It didn't by any chance come form the word 'Shiva' did it, because they are so coincidentally identical.
Where did the word 'Siva' actually come from then? Because as most people know, Siva is simply a different way to spell Shiva, the pronunciation is still SHIVA, as for your comment on the letter 'H', I think you will find that Roman Alphabets were not used in Medieval India or during the compilation of any of the Sikh books  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.196.3.218 (talk) 10:56, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Dear IP address (90.196.3.218), for anyone so bound on finding the truth as you pretend, the natural path should be to research and do a little homework before making outright claims on Wikipedia. As for the knowledge, AGGS (Aad Guru Granth Sahib), the Sikh scripture, calls the "ultimate truth" with many names but still does not believe in the Shiva that you are trying to portray here. For instance, whenever a Sikh Guru was debating/discussing with a Hindu they would talk referring to the "ultimate truth" in their (the Hindu) terminology and when they were talking/discussing with Muslims you will see them using Muslim terminology to make the debate/discussion easier for the other side. That aside,  Dasam Granth is not an appropriate reference as there is no consensus on its content. Many-many Sikh historians doubt its content were 100% from the pen of Guru Gobind Singh, composition "Deh ..." is one of those under scrutiny. Nevertheless, let me highlight it to you that if one starts finding the instances of "Shiva" and "Siva" in AGGS and put them all together to see what the Sikh Guru's and other quoted in AGGS are saying, you will not be very much happy about their views about "Shiv Shakti" etc. So I suggest, open your eyes and do some research. If you insist, we can start putting all those quotes on Shiv etc. from AGGS on this article page perhaps then it will be clear what the Guru's wanted to convey. A side note, all your edits on Wikipedia are coming from an IP Range in the same town area in the same country. I find that that IP Range is involved in very damaging activities on wikipedia like , for example, vandalizing  Guru Nanak article with bad language. Be warned, this IP Range is under radar!,  Regards, --RoadAhead Discuss 16:19, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
