33 Savaiye (Gurmukhi: ੩੩ ਸਵਈਏ; alternatively transliterated asSwayyae; also known asSri Mukhvak Savaiya) is a religious work written byGuru Gobind Singh which is included inDasam Granth, second scripture ofSikhs.[3][4] It is present afterSabad Patshahi 10 and continued withKhalsa Mahima.[5][4] It explains qualities of Supreme and the Khalsa.
The compositions lauds adivine conception that is unreached and unknowable by the elucidations used in theQuranic,Vedic,Biblical, andPuranic literature.[4] It also openly challenges anyone who venerates particular avatars of the divine rather than the whole and those who present themselves to be religious people in public yet remain ignorant.[4] The thirtiethsavaiya of the work is a strong rebuking of the materialisticly greedy and corruptedmasands, as per Dharam Pal Ashta inThe Poetry of the Dasam Granth (1959).[4] Some verses of the work are used occasionally forAmrit Sanchar baptismal ceremonies.[4]
It was written atAnandpur Sahib.[6]
