Today I explore the origin of Five Names of Sant Mat (Panch Naam Mantra or Simran Words) and the connection to the Sant Dharam Das/Kabir Line of Masters (the People of the Anurag Sagar, a Kabir/Sant Dharam Das sacred text).

In some branches of Sant Mat and Radhasoami, part of the meditation instructions includes the use of five special names. These particular Five Names serve as the mantra -- sacred names used during meditation practice and simran/zikhr (remembrance).  These names appear in the Sar Bachan Poetry of Seth Shiv Dayal Singh, (Soamiji Maharaj, a.k.a. Sant Radhasoami Sahib, founder of the Radhasoami Satsang).  The consensus is that Seth Shiv Dayal Singh had been given instruction about the use of these Five Names or Panch Naam by his initiating guru Sant Tulsi Sahib.

These Five Names are in fact used by the Sant Tulsi Sahib satsang based in Hathras. Prof. David Lane, accompanied by Prof. Mark Juergensmeyer, recalling a visit to India and an encounter with Sant Prakash Das of the Sant Tulsi Sahib Ashram or Mandir: "...The Mahant we spoke with in Hathras (1978) said Tulsi gave out the Five Names.... He was part of Tulsi's lineage."

So, who was using the Panch Naam Mantra -- these Five Names -- prior to the time of Sant Tulsi Sahib? It's an important question as it may shed further light on the identity of Tulsi Sahib's guru and the origins of this spiritual path called Sant Mat. If Tulsi Sahib did not invent the usage of the Five Names himself, then it's rather likely he was continuing the practice he had learned at the feet of his own Sant Satguru, reflecting an even older tradition of Sants. It would be most informative to know the identity of this earlier Sant Mat path that represents the "people of the Five Names", if you will, those who had these names in their mystic vocabulary during earlier centuries.

The Panch Naam Words Traced Back to Kabir/Dharamdasi Texts

One of the Five Names is nowhere to be found in the Sikh world, however, the third name -- indeed all five of the names of Tulsi Sahib's Panch Naam mantra -- are to be found present in the Sant literature associated with Guru Kabir and Sant Dharam Das. I can not say with certainty when these Five Names were first adopted by a Kabir Sant Satguru (or Sant Dariya's Guru, Sant Dariya, or Sant Tulsi) as a mantra (simran words) in this Kabir line of masters, but I will say that these names, which are associated with the inner cosmology and Sound Currents of the Inner Regions according to the Sants are to be found in certain writings of the Kabir tradition, and in other Sant writings that make use of the literature of this Kabir tradition. The "people of the Five Names" and "the people of the Anurag Sagar" are one and the same community: the Dharamdasis (Sant Dharam Das line of masters). This is the source-group and Sant tradition for the Five Names that existed in India prior to the time of Dariya Sahib, Tulsi Sahib, and Seth Shiv Dayal Singh.

In Divine Love, Light, and Sound, At the Feet of the Masters,

The mad white supremicists in the notes, though. Y'all, the Black names we consider "weird" are often based on African/Muslim names, and also having the freedom to name in a previously enslaved culture is a Huge Deal. Yes, there are non-American white people who pronounce the Roman alphabet differently, but this is not that.

This is colonialist, British, Christian superiority in addition to the Need to be Special. English has, like, four girls names everything is a variant of.--Elizabeth, Anne, Jane, Catherine, basically Henry VIII's wives, with a hat-tilt to Jennifer in the past few decades.-- Add in some biblical names--which Rachels, Marys (take Margaret* to get it and you have everything from Maggie to Peggy), Rebeccas and Sarahs, maybe a Christina, and you have GENERATIONS of Germanic American Whites who got really tired of sharing a name, but are mostly pulling from nicknames of the above.

Names with meaning (adjectives/nouns) are associated with Actual Puritans (as opposed to our puritanical culture which is very Victorian). I think that (the nicknaming--oh, hey, Nicole**) is why we have an idea of what Looks Like a Name. There hasn't been really a generation that would've named that child Rifle directly.

This is a girl whose grandmother Barbara (b. 1960)*** named her daughter Jennifer B. (b. 1980) (to differentiate from Jennifer K. down the street) who then named her Kaycee (b 2000). (There's something in here re:phonics I'm sure, but I'm not a linguist.)

There are other names these days, of course. A lot of traditional male names or surnames became feminine' names and vice versa. I think more boys got those initially, but they didn't have many more first names--Peter, Paul, John, James, Henry, William--. I say all this as someone who loves having a uniquely spelled name. I'm a Chelsey--a very British name-- who would've been Chelsea, except my birth mother, a teenager in 1989, spelled it Chelsia and my parents dealt with it being pronounced "Chel-see-uh" for my first year, which I think is a product of said phonics thing. Four years later the first daughter stole my name ensured that didn't happen. I've never been able to find my name on a keychain, but I'd argue that shouldn't be possible in a country that's supposedly a melting pot (ha.)

I don't know what this is tbh, except to say this has NOTHING to do with the Northern European native populations being mentioned in replies, wtf, people?

*name people, tell me, does Martha come from Margaret??

**and it's how Wynonna Earp gave us Nicole Rayleigh Haught, so I'm not against it. Just aware.

***known as Babs!

stop saying white people don’t have their own culture this belongs to no one else

William Afton has top tier FNAF parenting skills

[andysanimation]

Movie with a trash little little bb girl who is a man in his 30-40s who needs a job, and has a difficult relationship with his child/sibling. Then gets a job as a night guard and everything seems fine, until the night, when the inanimate objects come to live and get quirky. But eventually understand each other and team up to stop the bigger evil.

The idea of William Afton genuinely loving his children is so much more interesting to me than the alternative, not just because it's more tragic and makes his motivations make more sense, but also because it's fucking hilarious.

You are about to be obliterated from this Earth by a six-foot-something zombie rabbit, and your last moments are spent terrified and deeply confused as he shows you pictures of his kids in a blood-stained wallet: a clearly haunted bear costume, a limitlessly unnerving chrome clown doll, and what looks like Grimace's corpse left to shrivel in the sun.

theyre scheming probably

Did you ever have a crush so big on someone that it was enough to make you fight the orders of the evil rabbit that posses you? Vanessa can relate.

Idk why but I'm slowly getting obsessed with this two, and I thought this meme was perfect for them. Tape Girl's amazing design was made by @chloesimaginationthings, an incredible artist!!
