Abstract

In Indus valley civilization the existence of god remains in every age in different forms. One of the main reason is the Bhagti movement in this particular area. On certain areas some different sources of power and animals assumed as gods / creators. But this myth ended in itself very soon. On the land of Punjab Guru Nanak created Jap Ji (a poem on the oneness of God), stopped these type of floating thoughts. The Bani Jap Ji was an inspiration for people to read, write, think and evaluate the things. For future Guru Nanak guided about oneness of God and the way how to spend the life. Basic human rights, knowledge and wisdom was also discussed very powerfully in Jap ji. This is only one way to acknowledge God that is identified and the second way is to serve the humanity.
