Guru Nanak 's words are registered in the form of 974 poetic hymns in the holy text of Sikhism , the Guru Granth Sahib  , with some of the major prayers being the Japji Sahib , the Asa di Var and Sidh - Ghost . It is the part of Sikh religious belief that the spirit of Guru Nanak 's sanctity , divinity , and religious authority descended upon each of the nine subsequent Gurus when the Guruship was developed on to them .

Teaching of Guru Nanak 

There is one God 

He says there is only one God who is supreme , truth and ultimate reality . He known no fear and does not have any enemies . He is self created and is beyond time . He reveals himself to the created begins through his own grace .

All humans are equal

There are no caste , creed or religious difference . Never discriminate people on the basis of race , status and caste . To illustrate his teaching Guru Nanak started an institution called Langar that promoted sitting together and eating without any distinction and differences .

The greatness of womanhood 

Men and women are equal . In fact , women are even more respectable since man is born to a women , he is married to a women , he makes friend with women , his future generations depend on women . Without women there will not be anyone on this earth except the lord . Therefore , respect her and never call her bad .
