[QUOTE="OSingh, post: 152808, member: 15900"] "Guru Nanak was impartial about the existing faiths of his day explaining what was right and wrong in the individual practices. [B]S[/B][B]ome followed him like his two friends but they did not renounce their faiths[/B]." Please provide evidence that bhai Mardana was a Muslim and [B]stayed[/B] a Muslim. [B]Provide evidence to back up your claims[/B]. If Bhai Mardana ji was a Muslim before meeting Guru Nanak Dev ji or not. Once he came into cantact with Jagat Guru, Dhan sri Guru Nanak Dev ji, he became a Sikh of Guru ji. Bhai Mardana ji stayed beside Guru Nanak Dev ji all of his life and was his keertania (singer of Gurbani). How lucky bhai sahib bhai Mardana ji was. It was written in Dargah that all his life, bhai sahib would enjoy the nazara of Sachkhand on this earth. Point is that bhai Mardana accepted Guru Nanak Dev ji as his prophet, saviour, pir, murshid, sadhu, sant........ From that day onwards, bhai sahib sang kirtan of [B]only[/B] Gurbani. He kept Rehat (discipline) of Sikhi that Guru Nanak Dev ji instructed him. He renounced his prior faith. He did not do sri Jap ji sahib at amritvela and then go and do namaz prayers of Quran. He did nitnem bani's of that time. He did paath of 'Mahalla 1' (Guru Nanak Dev). You cannot have your feet in two boats at once. You cannot have Guru Nanak Dev ji as your Guru, Muhammed Sahib as your prophet, sri Ram Chander as the avtar you worship, at the same time. The only people that subscribe to such concepts are those that do not want to follow the Rehit of each religion. So they make up false stories and convince themselves that they are right. They label those that follow Rehit as extremists, fundamentalists and whatnot. Bhai Sahib Bhai Mardana ji did kamai of Gurbani and followed Rehit according to bachans of Guru Nanak Dev ji. He was a pooran Gursikh and personally one of my favourite Gursikhs of all times. Bhai Sahib Bhai Gurdas ji's pavittar bani say it best: ਇਕ ਬਾਬਾ ਅਕਾਲ ਰੂਪੁ ਦੂਜਾ ਰਬਾਬੀ ਮਰਦਾਨਾ। ik Baba Akaal Roop, dooja rababi Mardana One Guru Nanak who is the roop of Akal Purakh on this earth, alongside him is Rababi (musician) Mardana. If we want to become Sikhs of Guru Nanak Dev ji then we must follow bhai Mardana ji's example and surrender our mind (mann), body(tan) and wealth (dhan) to them: ਤਨੁ ਮਨੁ ਧਨੁ ਸਭੁ ਸਉਪਿ ਗੁਰ ਕਉ ਹੁਕਮਿ ਮੰਨਿਐ ਪਾਈਐ ॥ tan man dhan sabh saump Gur kau hukam maniai paeeai Surrender body, mind, wealth, and everything to the Guru; obey the Order of His Will, and you will find Him [B]RARE[/B] are those Sikhs that follow bachans of Gurbani [B]and[/B] follow Rehit Maryada. I seek the dust of such Sikhs. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh [/QUOTE]
