Talk:Gurmukh Kaur Khalsa

620:"Gurumukh" (which in the vernacular gets pronounced as "gur-mukh") does not mean to possess true knowledge or, more so, "yoga teacher." The word "gurumukh" is composed of the words "guru" (spiritual master) and "mukh" (face, from Sanskrit "mukha"). A gurumukh is a sikh (pupil) whose face is always facing the guru – in other words, a faithful disciple. "Possessing true knowledge" may be a very extended elaboration, but in Indian language, "gurmukh" is never used to mean "yoga teacher." Historically, the Panjabi word "gurmukh" is mostly used in the Sikh faith, and mostly refers to the nine Nanaks who were faithful disciples of their predecessors. 359: 341: 430: 409: 511: 490: 174: 156: 265: 244: 125: 32: 184: 680:, I don't see any reason not to add something like this if you can find a reliable source to back it up.

Any advice? I don't believe it qualifies simply as "trivia" since it seems that she had

I need someone to check page number in the book "Bountiful, Beautiful, Blissful: Experience the Natural Power of Pregnancy and Birth" by the subject of the article. I filled in and combined several duplicate refs to this book but now I see that we also reference a different edition of the same book.

Just read this page for the first time today, and found it confusing, and am wondering if there are any objections to my working on it to improve its clarity. The lead sentence should have the various names - birth name, Kaur Khalsa, Gurmukh, as well as date of birth. Then it would make sense to go

The page numbers I assigned to the London publication may actually belong to the New York version. Probably best if someone with access to either of the versions just combines all 4 refs and gives the page numbers for that version.

Terms which could be used for yoga teacher include: guru, acarya, yoga guru, yogacarya, baba (father), guruji, gurudev, sri guru, yogiraj, maharaj, etc. – never "gurumukh".
