Akal Ustat with Audio

Akal Ustat

Akal Ustat is the name given to the second Bani in the second holy scriptures of the Sikhs called the Dasam Granth. This text spans from page 33 to page 94 of this holy book of the Sikhs.

It is composed of 271 verses, and is largely devotional in nature.

The word "Akal" means the "timeless primal being" and the word "Ustat" means "praise". So together the words "Akal Ustat" means the "praise of the Almighty God". Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth Sikh Guru writes praises of God with love and dedication saying that God is worshipped by various peoples in many different ways and with varying names.

Guru Gobind Singh himself signed this Bani. The bani starts with blessings of God.

In the Akal Ustat, the Guru describes Almighty God in all His glory by making use of metaphysical references and the masterful use of imaginative language and image creating phrases. The extended similarities and comparisons are so lucid and clear that the reader gets riveted to what is been narrated. "There are millions of Indras and incarnations of Brahma, Vishnu and Krishna. But, without worship of God none are accepted in His Court." (stanza 38).

There is a Funny fact at end of Akal Ustat, i.e Guru Sahib haven't wrote last stanza complete but left the last line to show that i am tired his praise could not be finished. After Giving Such divine wisdom Guru Sahib did this.

At various points, in this composition Guru ji has spoken out against the caste system. Perhaps no other writer has so boldly and fearlessly negated caste distinctions, the name of Guru Gobind Singh will always stand out in history for this courageous and bold attack on the caste system.

The false belief of some people that by virtue of belonging to a particular religion, region, history, culture, colour or creed they are superior to others is strongly refuted by the Guru. Instead, he has very clearly and firmly stated that "all human beings are one".
