LIFE AND METAPHORIC MESSAGES OF GURU NANAK
Guru Nanak, an embodiment of Oneness, is an inspiration for universal fellowship, benevolence, and peace. He was born in 1469 at Rai Bhoi di Talwandi in West Punjab, which is now known as Nankana Sahib. He presented the truth of Unity in Diversity, recognizing that the entire creation is One composite phenomenon. He traversed vast geographies for over two decades to visit congregational sites of diverse faiths with a noble interest to seek and impart universal fellowship.
Guru Nanak's wisdom resonates through his 928 verses (Sabads) enshrined in the Guru Granth Sahib.
