THE RELIGIOUS PROBLEM IN INDIA
Whom we might call the Indra (Lord) of comtless
Indras, and King of kings. Three worlds, lords of earth, Gods, men, demons and
forest grass are saying, neți, neți (not this, not
this). Who can ntter all Thy names? the wise declare Thy functional names (alone).
[Guru x. Jap.]
In every way I said, there was no other, o
friend, He dwells in all the continents and islands (dvipas), He fills all lokas.
[Guru v. Peragandhari.]
His greatness the Veda doth not know; Brahmā knoweth not His Mystery; Avatāras know not His Limit; The supreme Lord, Parabrahm, is boundless.
[Guru r. Rāmkali.]
All are made liable to errors, the Maker alone does not err.
[Guru i. Shri Rāy.]
And then for worship; every Hindu knows the Irati and the way in which light, and one thing after another, are offered to the image of the worsliipped God. Guru Nanak deprecates the use of images in worship, and in his own Iraţi offers the whole universe in the worship of Brahman, the Supreme.
