This passage from Sarbloh Granth is devotional praise of the Supreme Goddess, representing fierce force of the Divine - drawing from Shakti narratives. However, the Divine for Guru Gobind Singh can be represented by both feminine, as in the form of the Goddess here, as well as the masculine, Mahakāl form.

Guru Gobind Singh within Uggardanti requests the Divine, using the terminology and imagery of the Goddess, to infuse Her spirit into the Khalsa:

ਕਰਹੁ ਖਾਲਸਾ ਪੰਥ ਤੀਸਰ ਪ੍ਰਵੇਸਾ ॥
Instill (your power) within the Third community, the Khalsa

ਜਗਹਿ ਸਿੰਘ ਜੋਧੇ ਧਰਹਿ ਨੀਲ ਭੇਸਾ ॥
The warrior Singhs, adorned with blue clothes, will arise.

This beautiful recitation was performed by Shakti Singh Shaheed Baag vale and the musical composition produced by Jessie Hayer (insta: @jhayerr).
