Adi Granth is Scripture of Gurmukhs which is revered in widely known religion called Sikhism. Adi Granth Contains Banis of 36 Gurmukhs who have written their experiances and exposed fake rituals and told way to attain God. It's Granth of Spirituality. In Gurbani, the words are composed in language which is understandable by people of word. These words will vanish but the message behind it will remain eternal truth.

To Explain Different aspects Gurus have used various terminologies and various aspects and idioms from society to explain spiritual wonder. Some of them are not directly explainable in society buit we have to do it's interpretation and give end result to Sangat. Some words are those which could not be explained directly in society.

IT IS AMAZING TO SEE, EVEN BRAHMGYAN CAN ALSO BE GIVEN IN SUCH LANGUAGE

Brahm Gyan using Husband Wife Relations

ਉਤੰਗੀ ਪੈਓਹਰੀ ਗਹਿਰੀ ਗੰਭੀਰੀ ॥
O you with swollen breasts, let your consciousness become deep and profound.

ਸਸ੝ੜਿ ਸ੝ਹੀਆ ਕਿਵ ਕਰੀ ਨਿਵਣ੝ ਨ ਜਾਇ ਥਣੀ ॥
O mother-in-law, how can I bow? Because of my stiff nipples, I cannot bow.

ਗਚ੝ ਜਿ ਲਗਾ ਗਿੜਵੜੀ ਸਖੀਝ ਧਉਲਹਰੀ ॥
O sister, those mansions built as high as mountains -

ਸੇ ਭੀ ਢਹਦੇ ਡਿਠ੝ ਮੈ ਮ੝ੰਧ ਨ ਗਰਬ੝ ਥਣੀ ॥੧॥
I have seen them come crumbling down. O bride, do not be so proud of your nipples. ||1||


ਅਜ੝ ਨ ਸ੝ਤੀ ਕੰਤ ਸਿਉ ਅੰਗ੝ ਮ੝ੜੇ ਮ੝ੜਿ ਜਾਇ ॥ ਜਾਇ ਪ੝ਛਹ੝ ਡੋਹਾਗਣੀ ਤ੝ਮ ਕਿਉ ਰੈਣਿ ਵਿਹਾਇ ॥੩੦॥


ਕਾਇਆ ਹੰਸ ਪ੝ਰੀਤਿ ਬਹ੝ ਧਾਰੀ ॥ ਓਹ੝ ਜੋਗੀ ਪ੝ਰਖ੝ ਓਹ ਸ੝ੰਦਰਿ ਨਾਰੀ ॥ ਅਹਿਨਿਸਿ ਭੋਗੈ ਚੋਜ ਬਿਨੋਦੀ ਉਠਿ ਚਲਤੈ ਮਤਾ ਨ ਕੀਨਾ ਹੇ ॥੬॥


ਦੋਹਾਗਣੀ ਪਿਰ ਕੀ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣਹੀ ਕਿਆ ਕਰਿ ਕਰਹਿ ਸੀਗਾਰ੝ ॥
The forsaken soul-brides do not know the value of their Husband Lord; how can they decorate themselves?

ਅਨਦਿਨ੝ ਸਦਾ ਜਲਦੀਆ ਫਿਰਹਿ ਸੇਜੈ ਰਵੈ ਨ ਭਤਾਰ੝ ॥੫॥
Night and day, they continually burn, and they do not enjoy the Bed of their Husband Lord. ||5||




Speak Rude to Manmukhs

Adi Granth is not bound to terminologies, where Gurbani is showing love for gurmukhs and god their it is also speaking against Manmukhs in amazing Tone for eg.

ਕੂਕਰ ਕੂੜ੝ ਕਮਾਈਝ ਗ੝ਰ ਨਿੰਦਾ ਪਚੈ ਪਚਾਨ੝ ॥
Those who practice falsehood are dogs; those who slander the Guru shall burn in their own fire.


ਜਿਨ ਹਰਿ ਹਿਰਦੈ ਨਾਮ੝ ਨ ਬਸਿਓ ਤਿਨ ਮਾਤ ਕੀਜੈ ਹਰਿ ਬਾਂਝਾ
The Lord's Name does not abide within their hearts - their mothers should have been sterile.


ਅਸੰਖ ਚੋਰ ਹਰਾਮਖੋਰ
Countless thieves and embezzlers.


on other side Gurbani states:

ਇਕ੝ ਫਿਕਾ ਨ ਗਾਲਾਇ ਸਭਨਾ ਮੈ ਸਚਾ ਧਣੀ ॥
Do not utter even a single harsh word; your True Lord and Master abides in all.

ਹਿਆਉ ਨ ਕੈਹੀ ਠਾਹਿ ਮਾਣਕ ਸਭ ਅਮੋਲਵੇ ॥੧੨੯॥
Do not break anyone's heart; these are all priceless jewels. ||129||

Now, Mostly it is preached that one should not utter harsh words but what Guru Sahib done in Above quotes are nothing more then Harsh. Remember when it is required then the truth have to be spoken weather it is harsh and The word is picked from society to compare like in above who those are away from Gurmat are DOGS.

Words Not Spoken in Public

Gurbani have also words which are not commonly used among Sangat, or can't defined among sangat, though it is converted into most acceptable form by Preachers so that stress should go basically on message.

for example:

ਜਿਉ ਜੋਰੂ ਸਿਰਨਾਵਣੀ ਆਵੈ ਵਾਰੋ ਵਾਰ ॥
As a woman has her periods, month after month,

ਜੂਠੇ ਜੂਠਾ ਮ੝ਖਿ ਵਸੈ ਨਿਤ ਨਿਤ ਹੋਇ ਖ੝ਆਰ੝ ॥
so does falsehood dwell in the mouth of the false; they suffer forever, again and again.

In Above Lines Dhur Ki Bani through Guru Nanak is taking Example of Periods of woman which is not at all preached among common public, The knower of Gurbani and other readers are directed to take their Bhaavarth.


ਮਾਸਹ੝ ਬਾਹਰਿ ਕਢਿਆ ਮੰਮਾ ਮਾਸ੝ ਗਿਰਾਸ੝ ॥

Though ਮੰਮਾ word is considered as vulgar in Punjabi society and in India and Pakistan. The word is not used in normal language. Though Some Ragis etc. feel shy to sing these lines in public. Even Interpreters gives Bhaavarth of whole Shabad, instead of going into meanings of single words
