I think the topic title may be a little mis-leading!

This is a Sabd/hymn by Bhagat Kabeer Ji who's bani is present in Siri Guru Granth Sahib ji many times.

While reading this shabd I saw many parts of it that I could apply to my life and I thought by posting it people could look into their own lives and try to improve themselves.

It is in no way directed towards anyone, and apologies if anyone was offended.

Lets all post certain SGGS quotes and act like they are helping non-sikhs understand. People read one or two and think they know Sikhi and run off slandering qoutes. After they think all qoutes are similar to the ones posted above. If there were some that talk about good["The Guru, the True Guru, is my very breath of life. Says Nanak, the Guru has implanted the Naam within me, the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, the True Name. I am a song-bird, I am a meek song-bird; I offer my prayer to the Lord. || 4 || 3 || (Page: 573)
