Jai Guru Deva Om

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

A sentence taken out of the lyrics of two songs. Hardly notable. S facets 06:13, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I disagree with the nominator that this phrase is not notable. A quick google search shows up a few thousand hits for this phrase. It is also possible to verify this article as well. -- S iva1979 Talk to me 06:21, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete There are literally tons of phrases like this in Sanskrit & other Indian languages and while there are google hits, I could not find any that are reliable sources Corpx 06:54, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: not notable beyond the songs themselves (from whom the ghits presumably emanate). David Mestel(Talk) 07:18, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. J I P  | Talk 07:35, 12 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep  I was listening to a CD on the Vedas and they mentioned the word "deva."  Being a Beatle's fan, I then wondered what this phrase meant.  Here I was able to find out.  taz50man 14 August 2007
 * Deva just means "God" Corpx 13:12, 14 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Keep Yes, I understood deva means God, but this Wikipedia entry allowed me to understand what Lennon meant by the phrase "Jai Guru Deva Om." taz50man 14 August 2007

comment- the phrase can just as easily be explained on the articles about the songs... S facets 16:45, 14 August 2007 (UTC)\\
 * Comment I agree that putting the explanation into the "Across The Universe" article and the "All This Is That" article and deleting the "Jai Guru Deva Om" article is a good compromise. But that puts the same text in two places, with the accompanying maintenance burden.  taz50man 15 August 2007
