Barium Swallow (Upper Gastrointestinal Series or "Upper GI
Series")What is the test?A barium swallow, or upper GI series, is
an x-ray test used to examine the upper digestive tract (the
esophagus, stomach, and small intestine). Because these organs are
normally not visible on x-rays, you need to swallow barium, a
liquid that does show up on x-rays. The barium temporarily coats
the lining of the esophagus, stomach, and intestine, making the
outline of these organs visible on the xray pictures. This test is
useful for diagnosing cancers, ulcers, problems that cause
narrowing of the esophagus, some causes of inflammation in the
intestine, and some swallowing problems.
How do I prepare for the test?Tell your doctor and the x-ray
technicians if there is any chance you could be pregnant. If you
have diabetes and take insulin, discuss this with your doctor
before the test.Stop eating and
drinking the night before your test. This is important because
food in your stomach or intestine could prevent the doctors from
seeing a clear outline of these structures on the xrays. Usually it
isn't a problem for you to take your regular pills, but you should
check with your doctor.
What happens when the test is performed?You wear a hospital gown
for the test. At the start of the test, you drink barium, a liquid
that looks like a milkshake but does not taste nearly as good (most
patients say it tastes like chalk). You might also be asked to
swallow some tablets that "fizz," causing air-bubbles to be
released in your stomach. This might make you feel like burping,
but try not to. You will get better pictures if you can keep
yourself from burping. The x-ray technician may ask you to stand or
lie in different positions over the next few minutes, to help
spread around the liquid you have swallowed. Most often, the x-ray
pictures are taken while you lie on your back on a table. The x-ray
machine or the table is moved a few times so it can take pictures
of all of the internal structures. You are asked to hold your
breath for each picture so that your breathing movement does not
blur the image. What risks are there from the test? There are no
significant risks. You are exposed to a small amount of radiation
during the test, but the amount of radiation is too small to be
likely to cause any health problems. Must I do anything special
after the test is over? After the test, you can eat normally and do
your normal activities. You should drink more water than usual to
help clear out the barium and to prevent constipation, which might
be a side effect of the test. Your stool may appear light in color
for a couple of days.
How long it is before the result of the test is known?It takes
the x-ray department 30 minutes to an hour to develop the pictures
from your barium swallow, and it will take additional time for a
doctor to examine the x-rays and to decide how they look. Typically
you can get the results within a day or two.
Barium Swallow / Meal / Follow ThroughBarium tests are used to
help visualise parts of the gut (gastrointestinal tract) such as
the oesophagus (gullet), stomach and small intestines (upper gut).
Note: the information below is a general guide only. The
arrangements, and the way tests are performed, may vary between
different hospitals. Always follow the instructions given by your
doctor or local hospital.Why
is barium used during some X-
ray tests?The gut (gastrointestinal tract) does not show up very
well on ordinary X-ray pictures. However, if you drink a white
liquid that contains a chemical called barium sulphate, the outline
of the upper parts of the gut (oesophagus, stomach and small
intestines) shows up clearly on X-ray pictures. This is because
X-rays do not pass through barium.
Types of barium test
Depending on what part of your gut is being looked at, you may
have one or more of the tests listed below. In each test, the
barium coats the lining of the gut being tested. Therefore,
abnormalities in the lining or structure of the gut can be seen on
the X-ray pictures. In each of the following tests, several X-ray
pictures are taken using low-dose X-rays. The total amount of
radiation for each test is quite small and thought to be safe. The
X-ray machine is usually linked to a TV monitor. Still pictures, or
a video recording of X-ray pictures taken in quick succession, can
be taken if necessary.
Barium swallowIn this test you drink some barium liquid. The
barium liquid is often fruit-flavoured so it is pleasant to drink.
You stand in front of an X-ray machine whilst X-ray pictures are
taken as you swallow. This test aims to look for problems in the
oesophagus (gullet), such as a stricture (narrowing), hiatus
hernias, tumours, reflux from the stomach, disorders of swallowing,
etc. You will usually be asked not to eat or drink for a few hours
before this test. A barium swallow test takes about 10 minutes.
Barium mealThis is similar to a barium swallow (above) but aims
to look for problems in the stomach and duodenum such as ulcers,
polyps, tumours, etc. You drink some barium liquid, but you then
lie on a couch whilst X-ray pictures are taken over your abdomen.
It may take a little longer to do than a barium swallow. So that
the barium coats all around the lining of the stomach, the doctor
doing the test (radiologist) may do one or more of the
following:
Ask you to swallow some bicarbonate powder and citric acid
before swallowing the barium. These 'fizz up' when they mix in the
stomach and make some gas. (You may have to resist the urge to
burp.) The gas expands the stomach and duodenum and also pushes the
barium to coat the lining of the stomach and duodenum. This makes
the X-ray pictures much clearer, as it is the shape and contours of
the lining of the stomach and duodenum which need to be seen most
clearly on the pictures. Ask you to turn over on to your stomach on
the couch. Various X-ray pictures may be taken whilst you are in
different positions. Give you an injection of a drug that makes the
muscles in the stomach and gut relax.
You will usually be asked not to eat anything for several hours
before this test. (Food particles in the gut can make it difficult
to interpret the X-rays.) However, you may be allowed sips of water
up to two hours before the test.
Barium follow throughThis test is similar to a barium meal but
aims to look for problems in the small intestine. Therefore, you
drink the barium liquid but then need to wait 10-15 minutes before
any Xrays are taken. This allows time for the barium to reach the
small intestine. You may then have an X-ray every 30 minutes or so
until the barium is seen to have gone through all the small
intestine and reached the large intestine (colon).
Small intestine enemaThis test is similar to a barium follow
through. However, instead of drinking the barium liquid, a thin
tube is passed down your gullet (oesophagus), through the stomach
and into the first part of the small intestine. Barium liquid is
then poured down the tube. This test is not commonly done, but can
give some different information about the small intestine than the
above tests.
Barium enemaThis is a test to take X-ray pictures of the colon.
See separate leaflet called 'Barium Enema'.
What preparation do I need to do?This will depend on which of
the tests listed above you need to have. Your local hospital will
give you advice on what to do before the procedure.
After you have had a barium X-ray test
You should be able to go home as soon as the test is finished.
Some people feel a little sickly for a few hours afterwards. You
can eat normally straight after any barium test. The barium may
make you constipated. Therefore, to help prevent constipation: o
Have lots to drink for a day or so to flush the barium out of your
gut. o Eat plenty of fruit for a day or so. o See your doctor if
you haven't passed any faeces (stools) after three or four days.
The barium will make your faeces white or pale until it has all
come out of your gut (after a day or so). If you had an injection
to relax the muscles in your stomach, it may cause some blurring of
your vision for an hour or so. If this happens it is best not to
drive. The barium does not get absorbed into the body. Therefore,
it is rare for a barium test to cause any other complications or
side-effects.
Some other points about barium X-ray tests
Tell your doctor if you have insulin-dependent diabetes, so that
you can arrange for the best time for you to stop eating and for
the test to be done. Pregnant women, if possible, should not have
an any X-ray test, as there is a small risk that X-rays may harm
the unborn child. This is why women are asked before having an
X-ray if they are, or might be, pregnant. Barium X-ray tests are
done less commonly these days. The more common test to look into
the oesophagus, stomach and duodenum is with a flexible telescope
(endoscopy). However, there is still a place for barium tests to
help assess various problems of the gut

Rag Maaru (Ansh) sacred speech, Mehla 1, Page 1037 The essence
of the aforesaid sacred speech is that the Saint, who will narrate
the whole story of natures creation and will tell who came out of
the two-halved egg and created the Brahm lok in the vacuum space
i.e. gave rise to Brahma, Vishnu and Shiv in a secret place, and
who is that God who made Brahm (Kaal) narrate the four Vedas (Holy
Rigved, Yajurved, Samved and Atharvaved) and that the Purna
Parmatma makes every living being say whatever He wishes, if you
find a saint who fully tells about all this knowledge, then go to
him. He who clears up all your doubts, only he is a Complete Saint
i.e. is Tattavdarshi.
Rag Maaru, Page 1038 The meaning of the aforesaid sacred speech
is that the Saguru who imparts the real knowledge is unique. He
only chants Naam mantra and does not teach any other Hathyog
sadhna. Even if you want wealth, position, wisdom or the power of
bhakti, then also, only a Complete Saint can fully provide the
knowledge of the path of true bhakti. Such a Complete Saint is
found with great fortune. Only that Complete Saint will tell that
God has already created our real home (Satlok) in the Sunn (vacuum
place) above. In that place, a sound of the real Saarnaam is going
on. One can achieve that blissful state, which means, can reside in
that real happiness-giving place by the Saarshabd of the Eternal
God, and not by other naams and incomplete gurus.
Rag Ramkali, Mehla 1 Dakhni Omkaar Shri Nanak Ji is saying that
Brahma Ji was born from Omkaar i.e. Jyoti Niranjan (Kaal). After
wandering for many yugas, Omkaar (Brahm) produced Vedas, which were
obtained by Brahma Ji. Only Om mantra is the actual mantra for the
devotion of the three loks. One is uplifted by doing jaap of this
Om shabd after taking updesh from a Complete Saint i.e. by
acquiring a Guru.
Anshik Sacred Speech, Mehla 1 The essence of the above-mentioned
sacred speech is that Shri Nanak Ji is saying that Oh, Bharthari
Yogi Ji, your sadhna is upto god Shiv, and because of that you have
acquired a place in Shiv nagri (city). The Singi shabd etc which is
going on in your body is of these lotus flowers only, and is being
audible in the body from every gods lok (like a television). I
(Nanak Ji) focus with undivided mind only on one Parmatma PaarBrahm
i.e. the Purna Parmatma, who is beyond everyone, and is someone
else. I do not show off (like, smearing ash on the whole body,
holding a wand in hand). I consider all the living beings to be
children of one Supreme God (SatPurush). Everyone is functional by
His power only. My mudra (revenue) is to chant true Naam after
acquiring it from a Complete Guru, and my baana (attire) is
forgiveness. I am a worshipper of the Purna Parmatma and the path
of Bhakti of Complete Satguru is different from yours.
Rag Aasa Mehla 1 Shri Nanak Ji is saying that those who,
forgetting the real naam of Purna Parmatma, are doing jaap of naams
of the other gods in misapprehension, they, as if, instead of the
root (Purna Parmatma) are watering (worshipping) the branches (the
three Gunas, RajgunBrahma, SatgunVishnu, TamgunShiv Ji). No
happiness can be achieved by that sadhna, which means that the
plant will dry out and you will not be able to sit in its shade.
The essence is that doing baseless bhakti is a useless endeavour.
There is no benefit out of it. It is also evident in Holy Gita,
Adhyay 16, and Shlok 23-24.
Bilawalu Mehla 1 In the aforesaid sacred speech Shri Nanak Ji is
saying that the Eternal Supreme God is the Naath of all the naaths
i.e. is the God of all the gods (is the Lord/ Master of all gods;
Shri Brahma Ji, Shri Vishnu Ji, Shri Shiv Ji, Brahm and ParBrahm).
I have imbibed the true naam/mantra (Sachcha Naam) in my heart. Oh
Supreme God! You are the basis of everyones life. You are my Master
and I am dependent on you. You only came in the form of Satguru and
by giving the decisive knowledge of true bhakti, settled the whole
row i.e. resolved all the
d doubts.
Brief Introduction of Guru Nanak Dev JiRespected Shri Nanak
Saheb Ji witness of God Kabir (Dhaanak) WeaverShri Nanak Dev ji was
born on Vikrami Samvat 1526 (1469 A.D.) Kartik Shukl Poornima in a
Hindu family of Shri Kalu Ram Mehta (Kshatriya) from the holy womb
of mother Shrimati Tripta Devi in a village named Talwandi of
District Lahore in West Pakistan. He had read Farsi (Persian),
Punjabi, Sanskrit languages. He used to study Shrimad Bhagavad Gita
ji from Pandit Shri Brijlal. Shri Nanak Dev ji had two sons named
Shri Chand and Lakhmi Chand. Shri Nanak ji used to work in the
store of the Nawab of Sutanpur by the grace of his brother-in-law
Shri Jairam ji in the town of in-laws of his sister Nanaki. He had
boundless love in God because this pious soul had done holy bhakti
of Brahm God (Kaal) through the ages. In Satyayug this very Nanak
ji was King Ambreesh and used to do Brahm-bhakti considering Vishnu
ji as his deity. Great ascetic sage like Durvasa accepting defeat
had gone in his kingdom to seek forgiveness. In Treta Yug, the soul
of Shri Nanak ji became King Janak Videhi, who came to be known as
Sita jis father. Sage Sukhdev who was son of Great sage Vedvyaas
used to fly in the sky with his supernatural power, but had not
taken initiation from a Guru. When Sukhdev went to the Heaven of
Vishnulok, he was returned because of not having a Guru. By the
order of Vishnu ji, he made King Janak his Guru and then obtained a
place in Heaven. (This is evident in Bhai Bale Wali Janam Sakhi
Guru Nanak Dev Ji, Pran Sangli and Kabir Sagar) Then in Kalyug, the
soul of this very King Janak took birth in a Hindu family of Shri
Kaluram Mehta (Kshatriya) and was named Shri Nanak.
Entrance into River BeinJeevan Das Guru Saahibaan, Page no. 42
to 44 (Writer Sodi Teja Singh ji) (Publisher Chatar Singh Jeevan
Singh)As it is excerpt from Jeevan Das Guru Saheb Every morning
Guru ji used to go for bath in River Bein, which used to flow near
the city Sultanpur. One day when you plunged into water, you did
not come out. After some time, your servant, who holding clothes
was sitting on the bank of the river, went home and gave the news
to Jai Ram ji that Nanak ji has drowned, then Jai Ram
ji went to the river taking along the divers. They searched a
lot for you, but you were not found. After searching a lot,
everybody returned to his homes. Great concern and distress was
being expressed at Brother Jai Ram jis house, when on the third day
in the morning only a devotee taking bath came home and told sister
that your brother is sitting on the bank of the river. On hearing
this, Brother Jai Ram ji ran towards Bein, and as the news spread
many more people also arrived there. When in this way you were
surrounded by people, you quietly reached at your shop. A crowd of
women and men started coming at the shop with you. On seeing the
crowd, Guru ji opened the door of the store, and said whatever one
needs may take it. After getting the store plundered, Guru ji
wearing the attire of a Fakir went and sat in a graveyard. When the
Nawab got the news of plundering of the store and departure of Guru
ji, he sent for Jai ram and got the account of the books inquired
by the clerk. After seeing the accounts, the clerk told that the
government owes Rs 760 to Guru ji. On hearing this the Nawab became
very happy. He called for Guru ji and said that dont be upset.
Taking your balance amount continue the job of store. But Guru ji
said that now I will not do this job. God has ordered me to do some
other job. The Nawab asked what have you been ordered? The Guru ji
uttered the Moolmantra (original mantra). Ek Onkaar Satnaamu Karta
Purkhu Nirbhau Nirvairu Akaal Moorti Ajooni Sab Guruprasaad The
Nawab asked that when did your God gave this order? Guru ji told
that when I had gone to bathe in River Bein, I had gone to
Sachkhand from there to my Lord, there I was ordered that Nanak ji,
you chant this mantra and by making others chant convey the people
of Kalyug across. Therefore I have to now obey this order of my
Master. Brother Gurdas ji writes this context in Vaar 1 paudi 24
Baba paidha sachkhand naunidhi naam garibi paai Meaning Baba Nanak
ji went to Sachkhand. There you attained the treasure of nine
riches, naam and fearlessness. Here on the bank of Bein, where Guru
ji appeared after coming out of Bein, a Saint ghat by Guru and a
very beautiful Gurudwara Ber Saheb has been built. On this very
place Guru ji after bathing in the morning used to sit for some
time in the meditation of God. End of excerpt from book named
Jeevan Das Guru Saheb
Evidence in Shri Guru Granth Sahib JiShri Nanak Dev Ji
previously used to do jaap of one Onkaar (Om') mantra and only
considering it to be true used to say Ek Onkaar. Kabir Sahib
appeared before Shri Nanak Dev Ji on the bank of river Bein and
took him to Satlok (Sachkhand) and showed him His SatPurush form
and then on the third day left him back on the Earth. After that
Shri Nanak Ji eulogised the eye-witnessed glory of God Kabir, which
is present in his sacred speech in Shri Guru Granth Sahib in Mehla
Pehla. Only after God Kabir gave Shri Nanak Ji jaap of Satnaam,
Shri Nanak Ji got liberated from Kaals lok.

ll4ll It has been clearly written in this that one dog (in the form
of mind) and along with these two bitches (in the form of
expectations and desires) are always unnecessarily barking (i.e.
desires keep on arising) and new-new expectations keep arising all
the time. The method (without Satnaam) of killing them was a false
(kud) means (muth murdaar). God (Kabir Sahib) met me in the form of
a weaver (dhaanak). He told me the correct way of worship. Shri
Nanak Sahib Ji says that without the sadhna of that God (Dhaanak /
weaver Kabir Sahib) neither there would have been any reputation
(pati) nor there was any good deed (good earning) being done.
Consequently, the terrible form of Kaal which I have perceived now,
Kabir Sahib, from that only your one (Satnaam) naam can convey the
whole world across (can extricate from Kaals lok). Even I (Nanak Ji
says) am only hopeful of your this naam, and only this naam is my
base. Earlier I must have also criticised you a lot out of
ignorance because lust and anger, these devils live in this body.
The God in the form of a (dhaanak) weaver (Kabir Sahib who used to
work as a weaver) came and showed me the true path and released me
from Kaal. His (surati) appearance is very pleasing and charming
and is in beautiful attire (in form of Jinda). He met me; nobody
can recognise Him, who even befooled Kaal i.e. He appears to be a
dhaanak (weaver) and then became Jinda. Even Kaal God became
confused that this is someone of a low caste; he can not be God
(Purna Brahm). In this way, Kabir Sahib hiding his real form comes
as a servant. Kaal or an ordinary
person cannot recognise Him. Therefore, Shri Nanak Sahib Ji has
called him a thug (imposter) and along with this has said that
Dhaanak (weaver Kabir Sahib) is very intelligent. Appears to be
something else, but is very magnificent (bahuta bhaar), the God
Purna Brahm who has Himself come in the form of a weaver, a
dhaanak. To instruct every human being on submissiveness, accepting
his mistake says that I (Nanak Ji) argued with Purna Brahm and He
(Kabir Sahib) also presented Himself (acting) as a servant and
addressed me (Nanak Ji) as Master. Therefore highlighting His
greatness and repenting on his ignorance Shri Nanak Ji says that I
(Nanak Ji) was not even worthy of doing and getting anything done.
Even then considering my sadhna to be superior, confronted (debated
on knowledge) God. Who can be as low, wicked and good-for-nothing
like me, who could not recognise his Lord-Master Purna Parmatma in
a dhaanak form (Supreme God Kabir Sahib who came as a weaver)? Shri
Nanak Sahib Ji states that I am saying all this with full
consideration that the Supreme God is in the form of a dhaanak
(Weaver Kabir).

being away. No companion like, son, father, relative gives company.
In the end, all the schemes, obligations, and rituals/actions are
useless. Everyday, evil thoughts keep patrolling like non-stop
blowing wind. I did not get any means of doing meritorious acts. In
such a bad time, i.e. Kalyug, the ignorant and careless like us,
because of not having knowledge of the true path, were blind and
dumb. Says Nanak, I am your humble servant, the dust of the feet of
your servants.

The above mentioned excerpt from Bhai Bale Wali proves that Guru
Nanak Dev ji met a Guru in Jinda form whom Guru Nanak Dev Ji
addresses as "Baba Jinda". He further says that, that Guru is the
Master of all and He is not under the subjugation of Kaal. Rather
Kaal is under him. Guru Nanak Dev ji says that he remained with
that Guru for 3 days after taking a dip in river Bein at
Sultanpur.

Evidence in Kabir Sagar
Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj Special Consideration:- There is no
evidence in the entire Guru Granth Sahib that God Kabir Ji was
Guruji of Shri Nanak ji. Like Guru Granth is respectable and
authentic, similarly Holy Kabir Sagar is also respectable and
authentic scripture and was written before Shri Guru Granth Sahib.
Therefore around 4000 Bani has been taken in to Guru Granth Sahib
from Kabir Sagar only. There is a vivid description about the
dialogue between God Kabir Ji and Nanak ji in Kabir Sagar and that
the venerable Gurudev of Nanak ji were God Kabir. Please read
below
For special reference, excerpt from Kabir Sagar (Swasam bed
bodh) Page no. 158 - 159:
(Nanak Speech)
(Jinda Speech)
(Nanak Speech)
(Jinda Speech)
(Nanak Speech)
Meaning:- Most venerable God Kabir acquiring the form of a Jinda
Mahatma went to Punjab (At the time Western Pakistan was a part of
Punjab province) to meet Shri Nanak ji and had this dialogue there.
God Kabir said to Nanak ji that if a pious soul like you is bearing
the sufferings of life and death, then what hope does a common man
have. The Supreme God is different to the one you are worshipping
and considering formless. I am that God. Ever since you have
separated from me, you have attained 60,000 births, some with very
good high posts like that of pious soul King Ambrish in Satyug,
King Janak (Father of Sita ji) in Tretayug and in Kalyug you have
become Shri Nanak Sahib. Even then you are in the cycle of life and
death. I will tell you the jaap of Satshabad i.e. Satnaam / Sachha
naam Mantra through which you will become eternal. Shri Nanak ji
said to God Kabir that you are Bandichhor God and only a rare
fortunate individual can identify you.
Amritvani Kabir Sagar (Agam Nigam Bodh) Page 44 (Nanak
Speech)
(Hymn) Special Consideration:- Shri Nanak ji saw weaver Kabir of
Kashi in Satlok (Sachkhand) and then saw Him working as a weaver
and then told that the same Dhaanak (Weaver) was present in Satlok
in Satpurush form. Shri Nanak ji studied Bhagavad Gita from Pandit
Brijlal in his childhood. After meeting Supreme God kabir and on
the basis of tattvagyan attained from Him Shri Nanak ji questioned
the same Pandit on the subject of seven shloks from Gita. Shri
Pandit Brijlal became answerless. Feeling humiliated he started
feeling jealous of Shri Nanak ji and then complained to the parents
of Shri Nanak ji and other Hindus that Shri Nanak ji is insulting
our Gods. As a result of this the people did not listen to Shri
Nanak ji with interest. Those seven shloks are given below. Shri
Nanak ji asked Pandit Brijlal that you say that the knowledge of
Gita ji was given by Shri Krishan ji and that Shri Krishan ji is
incarnation of Vishnu. Shri Vishnu ji is unborn, God of all and
immortal. They don't have any mother or father. You also say that
Brahma is Rajgun, Vishnu is Satgun and Shiv is Tamgun. This only is
trigun maya. But God, the giver of knowledge of Gita is saying in
(1) Gita Adhyay 2 Shlok 12 and (2)Gita Adhyay 4 Shlok 5 that he is
in life and death and is mortal. (3) In Adhyay 15 Shlok 4 and (4)
Adhyay 18 Shlok 62, God, the giver of knowledge of Gita is asking
to go in to the refuge of some other God is saying that complete
happiness and salvation is only by the worship of that God. I (The
giver of knowledge of Gita) am also in His refuge. (5) In Gita
Adhyay 7 Shlok 15 the giver of knowledge of Gita ji is saying that
those whose knowledge has been stolen away by Maya i.e. by being
dependent on the short-lived benefits obtained from the sadhna of
Rajgun - Brahma, Satgun - Vishnu, Tamgun - Shiv ji who do not even
do my worship i.e. Brahm sadhna, let alone of the supreme God, who
are only limited to these three gods, such men who have demoniac
nature, who are lowest among men, the evil-doers, fools, do not
worship me i.e. that keep doing sadhna of the three gunas (Rajgun -
Brahma, Satgun - Vishnu, Tamgun - Shiv). The worship of above three
gods is prohibited. (6) In Adhyay 7 Shlok 18, the giver of
knowledge of Gita is saying his worship to be of inferior quality.
That is why in Adhyay 18 Shlok 62, has said that to attain eternal
peace and complete salvation, go in to the refuge of that Supreme
God. (7) In Gita Adhyay 4 Shlok 34, there is evidence that for
complete knowledge and salvation find a Tattavdarshi Saint. I do
not have the complete knowledge about the Supreme God. Worship that
God according to the knowledge given by a Tattavdarshi Saint. This
same question was put to Shri Nanak ji by God Kabir Sahib on the
banks of river Bein. Shri Nanak ji after attaining this tattavgyan
from God Kabir saw Him in Satpurush form in Satlok (Sachkhand) and
then in weaver (Dhanak) form in Kashi (Banaras / Varanasi)
surrendered himself and then spread this tattavgyan to everyone and
then achieved salvation.
Important:- Holy Sikh society is not in agreement with the fact
that Guru ji of Shri Nanak ji were Kabir Sahib (weaver) of Kashi.
Instead they have said Guru Nanak Dev ji to be the Guru of Supreme
God Kabir Sahib. But what is the name of Guru ji of Shri Nanak ji?
On this subject the Sikh society is mum whereas Shri Nanak Sahib ji
himself in the Amritvani of Mehla Pehla accepts that he met his
Guruji in the form of a Jinda. The same was present in the form of
a Dhanak (weaver) by the name True Kabir (Hakka Kabir) on earth and
was also seated in Sachkhand and provided him the true naam.
Respectable Shri Nanak ji was born in 1469 AD and went to Sachkhand
in 1539 AD (Holy Book - "Jivni Das Guru Sahiban"). Respectable
Kabir Sahib ji appeared on this earth as Dhanak in 1398 AD and went
back to Satlok in 1518 ("Holy Kabir Sagar"). Both Great men were
contemporary for 49 years. Shri Nanak Sahib ji was born in Holy
Hindu religion. After attaining God Shri Nanak ji declared that
"there is no Hindu or Musalmaan" All are children of the same
Supreme God. Shri Nanak ji did not make any religion rather
liberated the humans from the artificial shackles of religion and
started the "Disciple Tradition". Like thosse who take initiation
from Gurudev are called 'disciples', the same are called 'Sikh' in
punjabi. Like today this das has around one million disciples but
this is not another religion. Pious souls from all the Holy
religions are getting their well being done. If in the time to come
someone starts a new religion then that will be a misfortune. A new
wall of differences and struggle will come up but no benefit will
be gained.
