Brahmgiani (Punjabi: ਬ੍ਰਹਮਗਿਆਨੀ (Gurmukhi)) in Sikhism is a highly enlightened individual being who is one with Waheguru. In Sikhism, such a person has also been named a Gurmukh, Sadhu or Sant. Other derivations of Brahmgiani have come from one possessing the knowledge of Brahman.[1]

Usage[edit]

Brahmgiani is explained in poetry from Guru Arjan and Guru Nanak in the Sukhmani.[2][3][4][5]
