If there is any word that is misunderstood in the Sikh Scripture - the Aad Guru Granth Sahib (AGGS) and leads the Sikhs to accept ancient philosophy or Hindu Mythology, it is the word, ‘Oankar’ (EAMkwru), also pronounced by many Sikhs as ‘Omkar’ or ‘Aumkar’. The chief cause of this misunderstanding is the Bani known as "Dakhni Oankar" under Ramkali Raga appearing on page 929-938 of the AGGS. This Bani, in fact, is a discourse between Guru Nanak and a Pundit of OMKAR TEMPLE in South India. The various translations / interpretations of this Bani indicate that the word, EAMkwru, used in the title of this Bani and in the first Pauri (stanza) is mispronounced as well as is misunderstood.

abstract	If there is any word that is misunderstood in the Sikh Scripture - the Aad Guru Granth Sahib (AGGS) and leads the Sikhs to accept ancient philosophy or Hindu Mythology, it is the word, ‘Oankar’ (EAMkwru), also pronounced by many Sikhs as ‘Omkar’ or ‘Aumkar’. The chief cause of this misunderstanding is the Bani known as "Dakhni Oankar" under Ramkali Raga appearing on page 929-938 of the AGGS. This Bani, in fact, is a discourse between Guru Nanak and a Pundit of OMKAR TEMPLE in South India. The various translations / interpretations of this Bani indicate that the word, EAMkwru, used in the title of this Bani and in the first Pauri (stanza) is mispronounced as well as is misunderstood. The present study of the first stanza clearly indicates that Guru Nanak is talking about the philosophy of the Pundit of Omkar Temple. In rest of the Bani (from stanza # 2 to 54 including Rahaoo - Pause) Guru Nanak is clearing the confusion of the Pundit about nature and attributes of God. Guru Nanak explains to the Pundit that there is no Trinity (Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva) of God to which the word, ‘Oankar’ or ‘Omkar’, is implied. Guru Nanak further explains to the Pundit that God is ‘One and Only’; does not come into anthropomorphic form (AwjUnI); and no specific/descriptive (ikrqm) name can be coined for God since God is an ‘Eternal Entity’ and ineffable. The critical analysis of the first stanza of this Bani (EAMkwru) also indicates that the word, EAMkwru, has no bearing on the < , the original and unique logo coined by Guru Nanak, which is the first word of the Commencing Verse (commonly called Mool Mantra) of the AGGS. The AGGS starts with this logo, < . It is just ‘1 + Open Oora with its open end extended’, which should be pronounced as ‘Ek Oh Beant or Anant’ (One Oh). The mispronunciation of as Ek Oankar or Ek Onkar or Ek Omkar or Ek Oamkar or Ek Aumkar under the influence of ancient philosophy should be forsaken.
