Bhagat Singh ji,
The problem lies in correct understanding of this

ਗੁਰ ਕਾ ਸਬਦੁ ਰਾਖੁ ਮਨ ਮਾਹਿ ॥
गुर का सबदु राखु मन माहि ॥
Gur kā sabaḏ rākẖ man māhi.
Keep the Word of the Guru's Shabad in your mind.

Here one should look at the words ...Gur Ka Sabadu

The clear meaning for this is that THE WORD OF GuR but the meaning is being
considered as Gurs Shabad.

As I have understood GuR does not mean Guru. Unless this is understood
clearly how it is possible to understand what is the role of NANAK as Gur Nanak.

I think it's suffice to say that the word of the guru or the shabad is to be the eternal guide.
On another note , that you should understand is that most non -sikhs, when they meditate have some sort of a guide to aid them.
In my case, I usually prefer to picture an image of Guru Nanak when I start meditating. I see it as my personal guide to aid me on my journey and I'm sure most others have something similar.

What is the true picture as image of Guru Nanak?

If one carefully understands the essence of Gurbanee then one finds the
true image of Gur Nanak is that of the JOTi image of the CREATOR itself.

So try to know the true image of the CREATOR.

But I am sorry to say we dont believe that there is some image of the CREATOR ( Every one says there is no image of the CREATOR)

Once the image of the CREATOR is known it would be very easy to see Gur Nanak before you.
