Wry,
The word is "Shabd" or "Shabda":Sound;Spiritual Sound; the Word. As soul
manisfests in the body as consciousness, the Word of God manisfests 
Itself
as Inner Spiritual sound. It is therefore synonymous with the "Sound 
Current"
within. It is the Word of the Bible; the Kalma, Ism-i-Azam or 
Bang-i-Asmani,
Kalam-i-Illahi of Islam; the Nad or Udgit ofthe Vedas; and also called 
Nam, Ram
Nam, Hari Nam, Gurbani, Bani, Ajapajap, Akathkatha, Har-jas, Har Simran, 
Dhun;
in the Granth Sahib, it is also called Guru. there are five Shabds 
within, the secret 
of which is imparted by a true Master.
