Guru Nanak Quotes

«Let him never bathe in tanks belonging to other men, if he bathes ,in such a one , he is tainted by a portion of the guilt of him who made the tank.»
«He who uses without permission a carriage, a bed, a seat, a well, a garden or a house belonging to an ,other man , takes upon himself one fourth of ,the owner s guilt.»
«Let him always bathe in rivers, in ponds, dug by the gods ,themselves , in lakes, and in waterholes or springs.»
«When those persons offer sacrificial viands in the fire, it is unlucky for holy ,men it displeases the gods, let him therefore avoid it.»
«Let him never eat ,food given by intoxicated, angry, or sick ,men , nor that in which hair or insects are found, nor what has been touched intentionally with the foot.»
«Nor ,the food given by those who knowingly bear with paramours ,of their wives , and by those who in all matters are ruled by women, nor food ,given by men whose ten days of impurity on account of a death have not passed, nor that which is unpalatable.»
«The food of a physician ,is as vile as pus, that of an unchaste woman ,equal to semen, that of a usurer ,as vile as ordure, and that of a dealer in weapons ,as bad as dirt.»
«The food of those other persons who have been successively enumerated as such whose food must not be eaten, the wise declare ,to be as impure as skin, bones, and hair.»
«Do not make that equal, which is unequal. The food of that liberal ,usurer is purified by faith, ,that of the of the other ,man is defiled by a want of faith.»
«Let him, without tiring, always offer sacrifices and perform works of charity with faith, for offerings and charitable works made with faith and with lawfully earned money, ,procure endless rewards.»
