Week 2 · The Gurus · Day 8

Guru Nanak Dev Ji

Guru Nanak Dev Ji is the first of the ten Gurus. He walked thousands of miles teaching one simple, powerful message — that we are all children of one Creator, and that truth lives in how we treat people.

Today's idea

The first Guru taught the whole world: one Creator, honest work, and kindness to all.

Pick two or three — there's no wrong way to do a day.

Today's Gurbani

ਜਿਨੀ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਇਆ ਗਏ ਮਸਕਤਿ ਘਾਲਿ ॥

Jinee naam dhiaaiaa gae masakat ghaal

“Those who remember the Name and work honestly — their faces shine.”

— Guru Nanak Dev Ji · Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji · Ang 8
Talk together

Ask: "Guru Nanak said there is no Hindu, no Muslim. What does that mean for how we treat people?"
