Names and Pronunciations

As you begin to integrate your spiritual name into your life, it is important to use the correct naad (inner sound current) when speaking your name and when teaching others how to pronounce it.

Use the list below to find a recording of your name. (If you cannot find the sound bite of your name in the list below, please contact us.

We encourage you to use your spiritual name as your personal mantra. It is a powerful support to help you keep up and to elevate your spirit. Here is a simple way to integrate it into your daily life:

  1. Listen carefully to the recording of your spiritual name until you feel you can accurately pronounce it.
  2. Practice saying it correctly.
  3. Once you feel you have mastered the correct pronunciation, use your mobile phone to create a recording of your spiritual name.
  4. Listen to the recording on repeat, and meditate for 3, 11 or 31 minutes (or whatever timing feels right to you).
  5. Try this for 40 days. Do the best you can. Even if you don’t pronounce it 100% accurately, you will still receive benefits.

Note that there may be more than one correct way to spell your name. As most of the names are derived from Gurbani, Sanskrit, and other languages of the Indian subcontinent, there is not a direct transliteration into the Latin alphabet. You will find the most common spelling below.

Note that most of these spiritual names can be used by either a male or a female, except as indicated.

The surname “Singh” (male) or “Kaur” (female) is included after each given name.
Listen to the pronunciation of “Singh” or “Kaur”:
