Summary of Sarbloh Granth Sahib Ji

See photo ‘Table of Contents’ at end of document and Mahan Kosh (under ‘Sarbloh granth’) for reference


First Chapter – ਪਹਿਲਾ ਅਧਯਾਯ
The first chapter contains the praise of Māhā Māyā, and Māhā Kāl. After losing to the demons, the Devtian (Gods and Goddesses) came under the protection of the Devi (Chandi). The Devi defeated the demon army and its leader Bhīmnād.


Second Chapter – ਦੂਜਾ ਅਧਯਾਯ
Bhīmnād’s wife prepares to become a Satī while his brother, Bīrjnād, prepares to wage war against all the Devtian. Indira then sends letters to all the Devtian asking for assistance in the war.


Third Chapter - ਤੀਜਾ ਅਧਯਾਯ
The demons got the upper hand on the gods and goddesses. Vishnu then sends Nārad as an ambassador to Bīrjnād. Bīrjnād would not listen and prepared for battle. At the beginning of the battle the 11 armies of Bīrjnād that were on foot were destroyed.


Fourth Chapter - ਚੌਥਾ ਅਧਯਾਯ
A great battle full of terror is occurring. Giving Vishnu’s ambrosial nectur (amrit) to the Devitan they re-gained life. After Indira captures the demons, Bīrjnād attains victory and captures/imprisons Indira.


Fifth Chapter – ਪੰਜਵਾ ਅਧਯਾਯ
After the Devtian experienced great pain in the battle they went before Akal Purkh and pleaded for help. Akal Purkh manifested himself as Sarbloh (all light). Sarbloh avatar made Ganesh his ambassador and sent him to Bīrjnād. Ganesh’s pleads fell on deaf ears and the war was started. The gods and goddesses used all their power to call on Sarbloh to help them. By getting Sarbloh's darshan all the Devtian and Demons were immersed in bliss. Bīrjnād then begins to praise Sarbloh. Sarbloh becomes a frightening form and has a great battle full of terror with Bīrjnād, in which Bīrjnād is defeated and killed.

there is no difference between mahakaal(akaal) and mahakali.Mahakaal and mahakaali are the same a akaal.This is clearly stated in dasam granth where sri mahakaal(akaal) is the sword of mahakali.Hence both mahakaal ji and mahakali ji are the same. both are the same nirguna akaal but also take sargun form.Akaal is only an epithet of mahakaal.guruji clearly worshipped both mahakaal and durga as formless as well with form


“You are the wife of Rudra with blood-saturated limbs; You are the chopper of all, but You are also Pure and Bliss-giving goddess; You are the mistress of activity and harmony; You are the alluring deity and the sword-bearing Kali.52.


“You are the killer of Mahishasura; You are kali, the destroyer of Chachhasura and also the Sustainer of the earth; You are the pride of he goddesses, the carrier of sword in the hand and Durga, the Giver of Victory.54.

ਪਿੰਗਾਛੀ ਪਰਮਾ ਪਾਵਿਤ੍ਰੀ ॥ ਸਾਵਿਤ੍ਰੀ ਸੰਧਿਆ ਗਾਇਤ੍ਰੀ ॥ ਭੈ ਹਰਣੀ ਭੀਮਾ ਭਾਮਾਣੀ ॥ ਜੈ ਦੇਵੀ ਦੁਰਗਾ ਦੇਵਾਣੀ ॥੫੫॥

Pingadchhiparmaa Paavitree|| Saavitrisandhiaa Gadetree|| Bhai Harnibhimaa Bhaamaanee|| Jai Devidurgad Devaanee||55||




“You are the one who ferries across the ocean of the world; you are the one who roams and crushes everyone; O Durga ! you are the cause of the creation of all the worlds and you are the remover of the suffering of Indrani.57.


समोही सरबं जगतायं ॥ निंद्रा छुधया पिपासायं ॥ जै कालं रात्री सक्राणी ॥उधारी भारी भगताणी ॥६१॥

“O goddess ! You have engrossed all the world in sleep, hunger and thirst; O KAL ! You are the goddess like Ratri and Indrani and the redeemer of the devotees.61.


Hence durga is the same as kaal(akaal)
