Wahe Guru by Rev. Yolanda - 5th fret- Am/Em/Dm/E shapes Intro is a drone sound with Spoken verse: We are expressions of the greatest of the greatest The Sacred Mystery that eliminates the darkness from our minds and turns us toward the light of Love. We are blessed with this Glorious journey! 5th fret- Am- Song starts with chorus: Backgrounds: “Wahe Guru-Wahe Guru” Lead: “Wahe Guru Ji Kal Khalsa. Wahe Guru Ji Ke Fa Te Fa Te.

Em Waheguru ji ka khalsa Am Waheguru ji ke Fa tae Fa tae. As a Greeting: For someone to come up to you and say Waheguru Je Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ke Fateh is a compliment in a sense because the person who says it to you is literally saying you are a pure one of God. YOU are a Glorious Creation. waheguru ji ka khalsa means purity belongs to waheguru, the creator. Fateh means victory. We are only victorious if we learn, love and follow Guru’s order, if we see God in all, without any of these lust, anger, greed, attachments, ego, hate, anger, back stabbing, steeling, lying, cheating, misleading, misrepresenting. Thus waheguru ji ki fateh means that if we become pure and become khalsa then any victory we attain; we are saying to our Guru Sahib Ji that this victory that He gave us belongs to Him. Once we follow Guru’s order and become khalsa, only then we will be blessed with His victory.

Dm Am I feel the love of dear friends and release anxiety. Dm E Then I remember who I am, And I become the We. chorus out- Am G Am Rakhay Rakhanhaar Language: Gurmukhu Rakhe Rakhanhar. This is the most powerful Mantra that can be practically applied for protection. I have used it many times in my life. The beautiful thing is that it is a Mantra for protection that not only surrounds you with protection but your entire community. People don’t understand the level of protection that I am talking about; it is real and strikes down any negativity coming your way. It is essentially a very sweet and beautiful Mantra. Many musicians will choose beautiful and lovely tunes naturally because of the energy that this Mantra vibrates. However, the effect is like a steel sword as used by the fiercest warrior you can imagine. This combination of sweet and fierce actually protects our innocence. For this reason I chose a rock and roll version based on Rocky Horror's “Time Warp”. Rocky Horror Show came into my life in high school, when I needed protection from the world around me. I used the song “Time Warp” as a touchstone to my own authenticity. The dance and song was like a ritual of protection for me. https://www.3ho.org/articles/what-i-know-about-aquarian-sadhana Translation: God Himself is looking out for us, gives us the light, and takes care of our affairs. God is merciful, and never forgets us. God guides us, giving us good people to help us. God does not allow hurt to come to us. I take comfort in the thought of God. When I remember God, I feel peaceful and happy and all my pain departs.
