Vāhigurū, often spelled Waheguru, joins an exclamation of wonder to the word guru, the dispeller of darkness. It is the gurmantra, the Name given at initiation, and Sikhs repeat it in simran. The greeting of the Khalsa, “Vāhigurū jī kā Khālsā, Vāhigurū jī kī fateh”, honours God as the owner of the community and its victory.
