| | | | | Translation regarding 'Word of the Shabad'
Gurfatehji
I am referring to Ang 64. ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਕਰੇ ਭਗਤਿ ਕੀਜੈ ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰ ਭਗਤਿ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥

Gurmukẖ kirpā kare bẖagaṯ kījai bin gur bẖagaṯ na ho▫e.
By God's Grace, the Gurmukh practices devotion; without the Guru, there is no devotional worship
ਆਪੈ ਆਪੁ ਮਿਲਾਏ ਬੂਝੈ ਤਾ ਨਿਰਮਲੁ ਹੋਵੈ ਕੋਇ ॥
Āpai āp milā▫e būjẖai ṯā nirmal hovai ko▫e.
One who merges his own self into Him understands, and so becomes pure.
ਹਰਿ ਜੀਉ ਸਚਾ ਸਚੀ ਬਾਣੀ ਸਬਦਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਾ ਹੋਇ ॥੧॥
Har jī▫o sacẖā sacẖī baṇī sabaḏ milāvā ho▫e. ||1||
The Dear Lord is True, and True is the Word of His Bani. Through the Word of the Shabad, Union with Him is obtained. ||1||
The last line says 'True is the Word of His Bani'. and 'Through the Word of the Shabad', but I'm looking at the Gurmukhi and I don't see the word 'Word' anywhere in there.
So why has Dr Sant Singh Khalsa inserted this word (pun intended)? If I am mistaken, and the word 'Word' indeed belongs there, please correct me.
To me it just seems to add another concept that doesn't need to be there and creates confusion.
Many thanks
