Nine Core Teachings of Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Sahib: Couplets

1. Remember God and Overcome Ego
Keep God inside your heart, meditate upon His name,
Defeat your selfish ego, and release the thirst for fame.
2. Honest Living and Hard Work
Build up your life with honest work, use every skill you own,
And let your daily bread be built on ethical truths alone.
3. Sharing with the Community
Give freely to the needy, share the food upon your plate,
For true community is born when blessings circulate.
4. Rejecting Discrimination
Reject the labels, class, and caste, break down the walls of race,
Look past religious differences to see each human face.
5. Respect and Gender Equality
Show real respect to women, walk beside them side-by-side,
As spiritual equals, true and whole, in dignity and pride.
6. Conquering the Five Inner Enemies
Conquer the five illusions: Anger, Lust, and Greedy greed,
Attachment, Ego—trade them out for humble thoughts and deeds.
7. Selfless Service
Serve all humanity with love, expect no grand applause,
Just work to heal a hurting world without a selfish cause.
8. Universal Peace and Brotherhood
Pray for the peace and prosperity of every tribe and land,
Promoting brotherhood across the world, holding hand-in-hand.
9. Acceptance of Divine Will (Hukam)
Accept both heavy grief and joy with grace inside your soul,
For everything unfolds beneath a greater, divine control.
