Guru Nanak Dev Jee is the founder of Sikhi and the first Sikh Guru. Guru Jee came to this earth in 1469 in the village of Talwandi, now called Sri Nankana Sahib in Punjab province of Pakistan. One of Guru Nanak Dev Jee’s companions was Bhai Mardana Jee who played a string instrument called “Rabab”. Guru Nanak Dev Jee wrote nearly 1000 hymns contained in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee, the Eternal Sikh Guru in the form of the Divine Word.
Guru Jee institutionalized the 3 pillars of the Sikh faith:
Kirat Karo - Earn an honest living
Naam Japo - Meditate on the Lords name
Vand Chhako - Share with other
