    Guru Nanak lived for the poor and shared his earnings By : INVC Team Published On : 23 Nov, 2018 02:00 PM IST INVC NEWS Shimla, The teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji stands out for their relevance even after 550 years after his birth. This was stated by the Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur while addressing the gathering on the occasion of 550th Prakash Utsav celebrations of Guru Nanak Dev Ji at Sri Gurudwara Sahib at Palampur in Kangra district today after he paid obeisance at Shri Gurudwara Sahib. The Chief Minister said that Shri Guru Nanak Dev Ji dedicated his life to spread the word of God, fight ritualism, orthodoxy and bigotry. He urged all sections of the society to promote cult of good and honest living preached and practiced by Guru Nanak Dev Ji. He said that Guru Nanak Dev Ji taught us how to live a life devoted to spirituality even as we live in the material world. Jai Ram Thakur said that Guru Nanak Dev Ji preached that all religions had merits and it was necessary to learn from each other for harmonious livings. His teachings were far more relevant today, centuries after he preached, he added. He said that Guru Nanak lived for the poor and shared his earnings.
