[QUOTE="Tejindersinghdelhi, post: 141033, member: 8676"] [b]Re: Is Bhagat Namdev ji An Idol Worshipper ?[/b] Bhagat Nam Dev Ji was accepted by Sri Guru Arjun Dev Ji among the 15 Bhagats whose Bani was included in the formation of Guru Granth Sahib Ji, which was called as 'Pothi Sahib' at the time of its installation in the holy precints of Harmandar Sahib Ji, the Centre of Sikh Religion then in 1604 A.D. We cannot imagin even in our drems that Guru Arjun Dev ji did not exercise proper judgement and faulted in accepting the bani of Bhagat Nam Dev Ji, whom some misguided Sikhs call him Krishan Bhagat instead of Akal Purakh. Gurbani says " Nam Dev Kabir Trilochan Pure Gur te gat payee". Nama kahe tirlochana mukh te ram samhal, hath pao kar kam sabh cheet niranjan naal". Bhagat Naam Dev ji visited that famous temple to educate people worshiping in that temple of the hollowness of their "karmkands" and taking them away from "Murti Puja' being performed at that temple. To understand this, we should look at the parchar strategy of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, who went to Haridwar, Mecca, Sumer Parbat, Achal Batale, Jagan Nath Temple to give them his message. Guru Nanak Dev ji did not subscribe to the viewpoints prevailng in those areas, similarly Bhagt Nam Dev ji did not subscribe to the "Murti Puja" being done in the temple, he addressed Almighty about the wrongs being done there in a very sarcastic manner to deliver his message.
