Talk:Ari, Main To Naam Ke Rang Chhaki (अरी, मैं तो नाम के रंग छकी)
About Jagjivan (Das), the skimpy article in Wikipedia only has a few bare facts. It seems likely that he was born earlier and wrote a number of important poems and other works, as well as founding or re-focusing the Satnami sect, which, like many since Kabir, attempted to synthesize, cross over and unite the teachings of the major religions. Other than that, stories about him are varied. Searching for Jagjivan Satnami will find a few.
About the Diamond 2012(?) edition, there are a couple of differences that show up in different bookseller sites. The year is sometimes 2013 and the page count 352, like the earlier edition. The most interesting anomaly is in the last word of the title. Chhaki apparently is not a real word, may be a nicknamish kind of word, possibly like Ari. Search engines will ask , "Do you mean Chakki?" when you search for it, that being a common word meaning "mill." Well, no, especially since Chakki turns up few useful results. But guess what? Diamond uses Chakki in the text version of its title, or to be more precise, it uses चक्की instead of छकी. So you still don't find it with Chakki but you find it with चक्की.
Well, whatever. Perhaps this is less a mistake than fishing for folks who might search in Devanagari having only heard the word audibly. -- Sarlo (talk) 09:53, 17 July 2014 (PDT)
