Jeh jeh kar jas jag andar mandar bhag jugat Shiv rehta – Sawaiyee – Ang 1407

SGGS Angg 1407.

Sawaiyee (Swaiyye) Mehle Panjve Ke.

Of the 21 Swaiyye in praise of Guru Arjun Dev Ji, 12 Swaiyye are by Bhatt Kalsahar Ji.

This is the 6th Swaiyya by Bhatt Kalsahar Ji.

Bhatt Ji says Guru Arjun Dev Ji had:

“Jeh jeh kar jas jag andar mandar bhag jugat Shiv rehta”

His (Guru Ji’s) victory is proclaimed all over the world; His is a blessed Home: He remains united with the Lord.

“Shiv” here does not refer to the deva shiva but to the Jote (God) within all of us.

The Swaiyyas are written in present continuous tense, (not past tense) as the Satgurus are..

“Satgur mera sada sada na aave na jaaye; oh Abhinasee Purakh hai sabh me rehiya samaiyee” (Ang 758).

The Bhatt Sahib further states Guru Arjun Dev Ji found the Perfect Guru by great fortune and stays attached to Him, and endures the load of the earth.

“Gur Pura payo badbhagi liv laagi medan bhar sehta”

Guru Ji is the Destroyer of fears, Eradicator of pains of others, Kalsahar the Bard sings Your Praises.

“Bhay Bhanjan par pirr nivaran Kalsahar tohe jass bakta.”

Guru Ji is from the Sodhi family, the son of Guru Ramdas; He holds aloft the Banner (Flag) of Righteousness and is a Saint of God.

“Kul Sodhi Gur Ramdas tan Dharam dhuja Arjun Har bhagta.”
