Maha Kharag Singh Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 i think it was just added to which ever Satguru it gave a ring to like Satguru Raamdaas Dev Ji dont have a ring as Satguru Arjun Dev Ji does 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mithar Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 I've always thought that the 6th and 7th Guru's name would have equally sounded nice if it had "Dev" in the ending instead of Sahib. But Sahib also sounds just as good. Some people also add "Sahib" to the name of Guru Nanak Dev jee instead of "Dev". They say it as "Guru Nanak Sahib Jee". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ringdingding Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 have the latter 5 Gurus (6th -10th) got Sahib because of their temporal power, which was stressed by Guru Har Gobind Sahib with miri piri? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dynamic_Banda Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Dev sounds hindu, Sahib sound Muslim. Maybe as the moghuls became more settled and powerful in India, their terminology became more apparent and therefore the later Gurus were refereed to in the new terms ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SURYADEV Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Maybe its a modern thing because Sikhs did not want to use the names Bedi or Sodhi. I read on SikhSangat.com a while back that some sunday school teachers at gurdwaras discourage children from using DEV beacuase its too Hindu!!!! Wont be long before we start saying 'Bhai Sahib Guru Nanak Singh Ji' Then again the first guru is also known as Rimpoche Nanak Lama, Nanak Faqir, Baba Nanak Shah etc, etc depending on who they're followers are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
