Meaning of Waheguru
Different people have written different meanings of 'Waheguru'.
One is:
The word ‘Waheguru’ is combination of first character of the names by which god was called in different yugs (ages), i.e
W - Wishnu (Vishnu)
H - Hari
G - Gobind
R - Ram
As in gurbani each and every word has a meaning. Even if a word is spelled differently in Gurbani, has a different meaning. Gurbani is complete. We can not say: Even without this word the meaning of stanza (or line) will remain same and complete. Same way, except W,H,G,R the sounds aa( for WA), ae (for HE), u (for GU) and uu (for RU) must also have some meaning. The word 'Waheguru' has a deep meaning.
My guru, Sant Gurnam Singh Ji taught me, so I believe it.
WA = Wah = Wow = Astonishing
HE = Everywhere/Anywhere
GU = Dark
RU = Light
He taught me Waheguru is he who can illumine (anything) anywhere by vanishing dark in an astonishing manner.
Understanding technically:
To produce light one need a source, like electricity-electric bulb, fuel-flame, sun, etc. We need a SOURCE. We can not imagine light without a source. We can not produce it from nothing. But he can. So, the WA in Waheguru.
As he can produce light from nothing he can do it anywhere, as we do not require a specific conditions (or source). So, the HE in Waheguru.
Only one of GU or RU can exist. Once RU is produced GU will vanish.

the muslims say that god has 99 names (hence the rosary beads being 99 segments) the hindus thort that the saints of each time WERE gods THEMSELVES and started to pray to them (as it is written in the scripture of the sikhs >me<) and they didnt say anything i.e. vishnu (vaasdev) hari krishan, gobind (gopal) and raam didnt say, hey, god is the one who has gave me these powers, pray to him, but insted they all said follow me >subh aapne aapna dharam chalaia siri dasam pita ji di bani, theres much more like this in bhai gurdaas jis vaara and siri guru granth sahib ji<.
our guru, never said that they are not the names of god. in this time of kaljug, people were forgeting god, so since god has an infinite number of names (as, in effect, he can create a new name for himself as and when he wants). the most remembered people (as there were lota of saints in each jug) i.e. raam, vaasdev (vishnu) and so on, the starting letter of each of their names were combined to form the word vaheguru.
as sikhs, we do not pray to these devi type 'gods' (as they were reincarnited, and god cannot be reincarnited) but rather recognise
vaheguru to be this vibration that we must hop onto. i frequently say, hop onto the naad! you will feel like you have always ment to feel.
so vaheguru is the vibration of god, and we are not really supposed to find this vibration, but rather 'hop' onto this vibe. (i suppose that we could say that we have found it.. but u no...)
to try and break down vaheguru in its constituent letters and syllables will only get you 70% of the way, and you willl finish your life in the process.
look to god, and nothing else. if you get stuck, go to your guru granth sahib, if you dont understand anything, go to the saints, if you dont understand anything that the saints have said like the concepts then go to saadus(bhagats).
gurfateh.
our sikhi is start from dhan dhan shri guru nanak dev ji sahib, with only true updesh, and then our all dhan dhan guru sahib ji gave us the devine message.
all sikh requested dhan dhan guru gobind singh sahib ji that how they meditate, what we call the name to god, so guru sahib gave us waheguru
guru mantar to all khalsa panth,
our guru is dhan dhan guru granth sahib ji, and guru mantar waheguru,
now we people just try to meaning of wahe guru, we are innocent & clever and gave our thought with such names, so i think that time our guru sahib is as god to us, so sahib gave us wahe guru, think carefuuly why says WAHEE, WAHE mean very sweet wah wah naam is like amrit, naam is so sweet we cant describe the sweet of naam, so guru sahib gave us wahe guru guru mantar, our guru is dhan dhan god is dhan dhan wah wah wahe guru , with guru grace human than come to know that what is naam, anand pia meri maye satguru main paya satguru ta paya sahej seti man vjiya vadaya,
if i hurt anyone so sorry

Bhul chuk maaf
Waheguru ji ka khalsa wahe guru ji ki fateh
just by denying our source and closing our eyes and chanting SUn has risen is not going to take away the negative impact of venom we are spewing.
Waheguru is formulated by sri guru Ramdasji and it has been clearly indicated as
W - Vasdev (Vishnu)- Satyug
H - Hari - Dwapar yug
G - Gobind - Kali Yug
R - Ram - Treta Yug
Whatever You people are discussing here is teh result of dirty minds of akalis
Who have been preaching That we are close to Muslims
If we were so close to Muslims why did not produce any guru. ALl our Gurus were born To Hindu Mathers>
Real name of Guru Teg Bahadur was Tyagmal
And Guru Gobind Singh was Gobind rai
Banda Bahadur _ Madhodas
Father of Guru Nanak Devji was Kalyan Das Mehta and not any mohamed or salim
Bhai Matidas was Pundit Matidas not Mulla matidas and
Guru teg bahadur neh shahidi diti si hindu dharam vastey not what akalis are propagaiting
Dashmesh Pitah was stabbed by a Moslem Bodygaurd after whic Dashmesh Pitah said "NEVER BELIEVE IN MUSLIMS"
The Divinity of akal Purukh will never fade away with this akali propaganda and instead it will fade away with time
EK Omkaar is base of universe
Veer Gurnaam Singh Ji,1st point,
Waheguru de asli arth Bhai Gurdas Ji ne apni Vaara che likhya ve,W(Wasudev),H(Hari),G(Gobind),R(Raam),
2nd point, Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji to elawa, Maanavta(Humanity) da koi hor Guru nahi ho sakda, Kyonki Guru Gobind Singh Ji ne Hukam ditta hai, agar koi Guru karna chaahe, te kisi Insaan nu Guru ni Manna, aap ji ne keha ji mere Guru (Sant ....), jo v, ohna nu Guru mannan da koi matlab hi nahi, Guru Granth Sahib de Equal hor koi v nahi
Bhul chuk d maafi
Thanks,
WaheGuru is actually "Waah - E - Guru".
"Waah" and " - E - " are separate, not together.
While speaking, "- E -" gets carried on to the previous word, "Waah".
Using " - E - " is a persian and urdu way of writing.
Examples are
"Dard - E - Jigar", Jigar KAA Dard, or Pain OF Heart
"Noor - E - Husn", Husn KAA Noor, or Light OF Beauty
"Surat - E - Haal", Haal KI Surat, or Face OF the Situation
"Wazeer - E - Aazam", Aazam KAA Wazeer, or Wazeer or the World
etc.
The " - E - " establishes an "of" relationship ( works as a 'kaa', 'kae', 'kee' vibhakti ).
Thus,
"Waah - E - Guru" is GuruJi ki Waah, or Waah OF Guru.
The feeling expressed by "Waah" is of sudden amazement, happiness, and appreciation combined together.
In english, we may truly translate Waah-E-Guru as
- All praise to The Guru,
- Hail The Guru,
- Praise The Guru,
etc.
Please also see :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waheguru
" Bhai Santokh Singh, in Sri Guru Nanak Prakash (pp. 1249–51), reporting Guru Nanak’s testament to the Sikhs has thus explicated "Vahiguru": "
FINALLY I UNDERSTAND WHAT GOD IS, WE SEE GOD THROUGHT KNOWLEDGE, WE HEAR GOD THROUGHT KNOWLEDGE, WE FEEL GOD THROUGHT KNOWLEDGE....ASPER GURU NANAK "GOD" IS FORMLESS, CANNOT BE SEEN OR TOUCHED...GOD IS KNOWLEDGE..OUR GURU NANAK GUIDE US TO RESPECT OTHER RELIGIONS SCRIPTURES(KNOWLEDGE)
May i have an explanation of the four letters in regards to the ages of time that give understanding to each letter of Vaheguru.
Thanks for sharing the meaning.
I would also like to know the meaning of waheguru Ji da khalsa waheguru Ji Di fateh.
Thanks
Wa hai ye guru....thas waheguru believe it or not....

Read Guru Granth Sahib
Here it is the Text on Wahe Guru.
https://www.searchgurbani.com/bhai-gurdas-vaaran/vaar/1/pauri/49
Before You proceed further As per Hindu Upanishads and other Books on Hinduism the All Supreme Formless God is Vishnu-Narayana, the Supreme Cosmic Spirit who maintains complete control over the Universe and all the sentient beings, is perfect, omniscient, omnipresent, incorporeal, independent, the creator of the universe, its active ruler and also its eventual destroyer. He is causeless, eternal and unchangeable.
It is this God (Narayan) whom Guru Nanak Worshipped and it is this supreme formless God that the Guru Granth Sahib Refers.
And it says the Last thought of a man before his death should be of the Supreme God Narayan.
ਅੰਤਿ ਕਾਲਿ ਨਾਰਾਇਣੁ (NARAYANA) ਸਿਮਰੈ ਐਸੀ ਚਿੰਤਾ ਮਹਿ ਜੇ ਮਰੈ ॥
ਬਦਤਿ ਤਿਲੋਚਨੁ ਤੇ ਨਰ ਮੁਕਤਾ ਪੀਤੰਬਰੁ ਵਾ ਕੇ ਰਿਦੈ ਬਸੈ ॥੫॥੨॥
