Mandar de vich musalam ja ke kalma nahi suna sakda; Hindu ja ke gurudware raam naam nahi ga sakda. Masjid andar je sikh jave vaheguru nahin bula sakda; Mandar de vich baith isaai God God nahin ga sakda. Poora satguru jaat paat de jhagrhe sabh mitanda ey; Kahe avtar eh chauhan varnan nu ikko than buthanda ey. |

A Muslim cannot recite Kalma in a temple; A Hindu cannot sing the glory of Lord Rama in a Sikh shrine. A Sikh cannot recite the name of Waheguru in a mosque; A Christian cannot sing the glory of God in a Hindu temple. True Master ends all wrangles of caste and community; Avtar says, he makes people of all castes sit together at one place. |
Meaning
In this verse, Shehenshah Baba Avtar Singh Ji explains that there are different religions in this world and everyone today is fighting in the name of religion. Baba Ji says that a follower of one religion cannot tolerate a follower of another religion in his/her place of worship. For example, a Muslim cannot read Kalma (verses from the Holy Quran) at a temple, a Hindu cannot sing the praise of Ram at a Gurudwara, a Sikh cannot pray to Wahe Guru at a mosque, and a Christian cannot sing the praise of God at a temple. Baba Ji explains that only the True Master (Satguru) ends all fights of religion and makes people of all religions sit together at one place.
Note: Ram, God, Wahe Guru, Allah are different names of Nirankar.
