Guru Nanak Quotes

«Keeping his hair, nails, and beard clipped, subduing his passions by austerities, wearing white garments and ,keeping himself pure, he shall be always engaged in studying the Veda and ,such acts as are conducive to his welfare.»
«Let him never look at the sun, when he sets or rises, is eclipsed or reflected in water, or stands in the middle of the sky.»
«Let him not step over a rope to which a calf is tied, let him not run when it rains, and let him not look at his own image in water, that is a settled rule.»
«Let him, though mad with desire, not approach his wife when her courses appear, nor let him sleep with her in the same bed.»
«For the wisdom, the energy, the strength, the sight, and the vitality of a man who approaches a woman covered with menstrual excretions, utterly perish.»
«If he avoids her, while she is in that condition, his wisdom, energy, strength, sight, and vitality will increase.»
«Let him not eat in the company of his wife, nor look at her, while she eats, sneezes, yawns, or sits at her ease.»
«Let him not eat, dressed with one garment only, let him not bathe naked, let him not void urine on a road, on ashes, or in a cow pen.»
«He may ease himself, having covered ,the ground with sticks, clods, leaves, grass, and the like, restraining his speech, ,keeping himself pure, wrapping up his body, and covering his head.»
«Let him not blow a fire with his mouth, let him not look at a naked woman, let him not throw any impure substance into the fire, and let him not warm his feet at it.»
