Dear Bablir Singh ji Satsriakaal!
I dont know answer to your question as there seems to be too many references of Raam in Guru gRanth sahib and also I think I havent read all of Guru Granth Sahib so basically dont know?
What I know is common understand of Viakhiakaar and Preachers is that its used in Two Context most as Attribute of God but also as refering to personality called RAAM that is also part of Epic RAmayana in Hindu Mythyology
But this seesm to creating Duality in my mind and Ithink Guru should Dispel Duality and not create one So I m not sure on this One
any way I also have query for you . I ope you will will help me !
Help me understand First line to thi s Shabad from GuruDev
