If you are looking for an answer to something you cannot find in SGGS. Look for it in the Bhagad Gita & Quran as Guru Nanak Dev Ji said... [/I]Gita contradicts itself. Quran is full of grammatical errors and provides no spiritual guidance. It is a book of instruction for muslims.

Become the dust of the feet of the humble Saints and consider yourself a traveler on this journey. Then you shall be approved in the house of God. Let Truth be your prayer, and faith your prayer-mat. Subdue your desires, and overcome your hopes. Let your body be the mosque, and your mind the priest. Let true purity be God's Word for you. This is the real spiritual way of life. Let your spiritual cleansing be giving up worldly attachments and seeking God. Let control of the mind be your spiritual wisdom. O holy man; meeting with God, you shall never die again.

[/FONT][/COLOR][/I][COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana] According to Hinduism (caste system) a lower caste person is inferior and according to Islam “kafirs” and idolaters are bad and not trustable. The quote rejects both notions by saying that everyone (human beings) is created equally which means no one is born inferior, dirty or bad. In other words, actions define a person not birth.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana] [/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=black][FONT=Verdana] [I]PRABHAATEE: Do not say that the Vedas, the Bible and the Koran are false.

Kabeer Ji says that [B][I]“I openly say that religions (ways) preached by Vedas and Quran are false and false are those who do not understand this fact.”[/I][/B] The word “Mat” does not mean “Do not” but it means Religions or different way to reach God. Guru Gobind Singh Ji Himself rejected the authority of these books by saying: [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana] [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#222222][FONT=AnmolUni][SIZE=3]ਰਾਮ ਰਹੀਮ ਪੁਰਾਨ ਕੁਰਾਨ ਅਨੇਕ ਕਹੈਂ ਮਤ ਏਕ ਨ ਮਾਨਯੋ ॥[/SIZE][/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#222222][FONT=AnmolUni] [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana] [/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#222222][FONT=Verdana]Notice how the word “Mat” is used in this context. Guru Gobind Singh Ji is clearly rejecting the religion preached by Puranas, Quran and other prophets.
