 | | The Gurbani also teaches that prayers and meditation strengthen the Sikhs ability to live in Gods Hukam and accept it gracefully. | | | The content of The Guru Granth Sahib is the Gurbani and must be revered by all the Sikhs. | | | A Sikh should be clear that his Guru is the Gurbani and not the religious book in its physical form. |

| | The Gurbani, in Guru Granth Sahib is God's view of a true Seeker's sentiments, his actions, his motives, and his prayers, during different aspects of his spiritual growth, flavored with the Guru's teaching. | | | Gurbani was written in verse, according to the ancient Indian music (raga), to ensure that it will be sung. | | | Upon daybreak, he sings Gurbani, and holds God's Name in heart during all activity. |

| | The Gurbani has a simple message: there is One God and He is within you — He is your own Self. | | | But the Absolute Truth the scriptures and the Masters try to explain using this limited human language is Unlimited and Infinite. | | | The purpose of human life is to know and understand this realm of Truth within the body while alive ("here" and "now") through self-purification and self-observation. |

| | Thinking of One God alone, speaking of This alone, conversing of This alone with others, and serving This alone is the practice of the spiritually Wise who has applied the Gurbani to their day-to-day living. | | | Therefore, the Gurbani is not given to us for mere ritualistic and mechanical reading or singing, nor for parrot-like memorization or showoff ceremonies. | | | Similarly, the Gurbani (Sri Guru Granth Sahib, SGGS) is only meant to be applied, otherwise it has no meaning. |

| | SikhSpectrum.com Monthly. Gurbani’s Correct Interpretation: A Rejoinder |
| | For proper interpretation of Gurbani, one must keep in mind the fundamental principles of Nankian philosophy described by Guru Nanak in the opening verse of AGGS, the theme of the whole shabad containing the verse and the meaning of the verse of rhau (pause). | | | I think it was his understanding of Gurbani (sacred hymns of AGGS), which prompted him to drop the second and third line, as they are inconsistent with Gurbani. | | | Citing an incomplete verse of Gurbani without reference or for that matter, any quote or scientific term is not proper. |

| | Importance of Stringed Instruments in Gurbani Kirtan |
| | It was in this spirit that Gurbani was composed and performed, an outgrowth of Indian spiritual practices and music, from Samvedic chanting to the great North Indian classical forms such as dhrupad and khayal, South Indian forms (Dakhnee), and blended with various simple, though soulful, local folk traditions. | | | He [Guru Nanak] felt that Gurbani and Kirtan are superior to all spiritual practices and as such they lead to the door of salvation.” (Mansukhani: 92) | | | In line with the Bhakts and Sufis, whose Kirtan won over the masses of India to a universal appreciation of the Creator through the singing of Divine Hymns, the Sikh Gurus distilled the art as a comprehensive technology of life based on musical meditation. |

| | The Term “Sant” in the Light of Gurbani |
| | It is difficult to say if any such Sants do exist today, but to say that no such persons, other that the Gurus, have existed in the past nor they exist today, is a rather hasty statement that does not pass the test by the touchstone of Guru Granth Sahib. | | | Thus, according to the teaching of Gurbani, it is quite possible to have Sants other than the Gurus. | | | During their lives the ten Gurus must have cast such ambrosial sight on many deserving Sikhs who became Sants. |
