[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 65376, member: 189"] Guru Piyario Jio, Gurfateh. Yes you are right that the SGGS in one volume is the "GURU" as per SRM and accepted by all Sikhs. 2. As per GURBANI being the Shabad GURU....each and every single tuk is worthy of the ultimate respect as it is Divine Message of the Creator. This is universal and applicable to all mankind irrespective of his/her native religion..i would even include atheists. It would surprise you to learn that there is one very special type of "poetry" in SGGS that is known as ONE-LINE POETRY. ( Just one line is a complete poem and contains the netire message/teaching) This type of literary work was introduced in japanese about 400 years ago ( HAIKU STYLE) and is very very rare in any language - NONE so far is found in Hindi/Punjabi/Sanaskrit. Only this One tuk is found in SGGS. In English and French it was experimented with in the beginning of the 20th century....now a days it is quite popular form. The tuk that is in this form of poetry is on page 1251 in Raag Sarang..."Chhadd mun Har bemukhaan ko sang... O my mind leave the company of non-beleivers (in God). THIS is a complete philosphy in itself. It is universally beleived that we are what due to the company we keep..thus if we keep the company of non-beleivers..we will become non-beleivers...if we associate with saints and saadh snagat..we are more likely to become saints (rather than {censored}). None of the Gurus ever insisted that their followers become "SIKHS" and thus LEAVE their native religions..all were welcome in their Saadh Sangat..to listen and imbibe...follow as and what they liked. Some became better at imbibing while others were slower...yet all were welcome and sikhs (learners) Even in 1699 at Vasakhi anandpur sahib..Guru Ji "REQUESTED" for Five Heads..He got the Five and Ordained the Khalsa...BUT the "joining in" was entirely VOLUNTARY. Guru Ji certainly never ordered those not willing to be Khalsa to leave..or label them as "non-sikhs" as some "Khalsa" do today. The Khalsa initiation is still VOLUNTARY and only to those of AGE of REASON/MATURITY - meaning those who can make up their own minds..!! 3. To answer your query..YES one cna take any GURBANI he/she wishes as the guiding post in life...say the sloks of Bhaght Kabir Ji or Sheikh Farid Ji. There is so much wisdom and spirituality..and its a fact that the entire 1429 pages of SGGS are in complete agreement - there is no disagreement or clash irrespective of whether it is bani of kabir ji or bani of farid ji or bani of Guur Teg bahadur Ji..or Bani of Guru Angad Ji. Guru Nanak ji sahib as the Fountain Head began this process of delivering His Divine Message thru Gurbani...and the rest of the distingushed pearls in SGGS complement whatever Message Guru nanak ji Sahib delivered..all the PEARLS are strung together on the SAME STRING....take your PICK !! Love towards all and enmity towards NONE. Gyani jarnail Singh [/QUOTE]
