O f women are we born, of women conceived To woman betrothed and wedded; Women we befriend, by her continues the human race; When woman dies, woman is sought, for it is she who maintains world order; Why revile her of whom are born the great? Of woman is born another woman; none exists without her; The Eternal God, says Nanak, is the only One not born of her.

T he Lord first created the light; From the Lord’s play all living creatures came, And from the Divine Light the whole creation sprang. Why then should we divide humans into high and low creatures. Brother, be not in error; Out of the Creator the creation comes; Everywhere in the creation the Creator is; The Lord’s spirit is all-pervading! The Lord, the Maker, has molded one mass of clay into Vessels of diverse shapes. Free from taint are all the vessels of clay Since free from taint is the Divine Potter.
