(Source: KABIR)

jo khuda masjid vasad hai
If God be within the mosque, then to whom does this world belong?
If Ram be within the image which you find upon your pilgrimage,
then who is there to know what happens whithout?
Hari is in the East: Allah is in the West. Look within your heart,
for there you will find both Karim and Ram;
All the men and women of the world are His living forms.
Kabir is the child of Allah and of Ram: He is my Guru, He is my Pir.
...........................................................................................
Says Kabir: the clouds of love have gathered
raining over me
my soul soaked within
green woods around.
Says Kabir: do not be proud
seeing your mansion
tomorrow you will lie beneath the earth
tufts of grass over you.
Says Kabir: those who do not love God
know no joy
like a guest in an empty house
they come and depart.
Your God dwells within you
like fragrance in the flower
must lies within the deer
yet seeks it afar.
Worlds pass away reading scriptures
none the wiser
he who understand the word 'Love'
is the wise one.
The Hindu says Ram is supreme
the Muslim, Rahim
both die fighting each other
neither knowing the Truth.
Remembering You ever
egoless, I have merged with You
no more the cycle of births and deaths
wherever the eye goes I see You.
Brimming with devotion to God I am
this world ties me no more
a pitcher once backed, says Kabir
needs no potter's wheel again.

It is sickening to know that even today Hindus and Muslim clashes are rampant not only in India but also in Malaysia.

The Molela Potters of Rajasthan:
Mati Kahe Kumhar Se (As the Earth Speaks to the Potter)

Traveling through Rajasthan one comes across simple terra cotta images in the most unlikely places.
Molela,a small village near Udaipur, is indistinguishable from the other villages around it, except that this is where the Maru kumhars, the Molela potters, who make wonderful and unique images live, work and pray.
In contrast to magnificent Hindu temples and the pantheon of gods which reflect the wealth of its patrons, the Molela creations are distinguished by the piety and simplicity of belief held by the common rural inhabitants of the region.

Sikhi is still ahead of its time. Yet there were those who heard Guru Nanaak then and understood. And there are those today who hear and understand. That is why I am here. His message about women, and everything else too. Guru Nanaak was a genius.

Thank you

I think Inderjeet Singh nicely summed up Guru Nanak and Sikhism. I recommend you listen to Thought for the Day on radio 4:

Meaning Of 12
Everyone desires to be known, to belong.

Only those with relaxed and loving mind find themselves in harmony with everyone.
