[edit] Merge with Aum

This article should not be Merged with Aum. Ek Onkar is distinct, although it does have a common basis in Aum, it means something different. 128.86.146.48 16:57, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Issues referring to current version of article

  1. ੴ is different than "Onkar" unlike the way this article in current form is trying to portray, please refer AGGS.
  2. Furthermore, it would be wrong to say "Omkar" is a variant of ੴ or vice versa as Omkar refers to Trinity system in which Guru Nanak (the creator of the opening verse of Japji ੴ ) did not believe.
  3. ੴ has nothing to do with Sanskrit like the article is portraying currently. Guru Nanak had rejected Sanskrit and rather chosen Punjabi for his work. The second letter in ੴ is "urra" a Punjabi letter. ---- A. S. AulakhTalk 23:57, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
