[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 98125, member: 189"] Tony Ji, Bhagat Kabir Ji says.. Keso Keso KOOKEAYEAH...na soeayeh asaar Keso is the "Lord with Beautiful FLOWING hair... and Kookeayeah means SHOUT at the top of ones voice...( SIMRAN) why the need to describe his LORD as the one with long flowing beautiful hair..and why the need to use the word KOOK (Shout) about it... SGGS has thousands of references to ALL the Five Ks..but in symbolic ways because the TEN GURUS are ONE JYOT and not one will BREAK OFF and do something that the other NINE rejected/disagreed with/didnt want/discouraged it/thought it irrelevant. NO WAY..or we are injecting our own MANMATT into it and trying to find excuses and divide the TEN GURUS.
