His words are very simple and approachable and touch to every common man, ultimately all is starting to become His disciples and followers where ever Guru Nanak Devji was went.
Epics of Sikh Religion
Guru Nanak Dev's words are very simple and registered in the form of 974 Poetic Hymns, or Shabda Brahma, (Shabda Brahma is one of the main messages of Vedas) in the holy text of Sikhism, the 'Guru Granth Sahib', with some of the Major Prayers being the 'Japji Sahib' (Jap means 'to recite again and again'; ji and sahib are suffixes signifying respect to the Holy Granth); the 'Asa di Var' ('the ballad of hope'); and the 'Sidh Ghost' ('discussion with the Siddhas'). It is part of Sikh religious belief that the spirit of Nanak's sanctity, divinity, and religious authority had descended upon each of the nine subsequent Gurus when the Guruship or Guru Parampara was "devolved or transferred the Divine Power" on to them. Guru Granth Sahib is the main epic of Sikhism and always, in all Gurudwara 'Parayana' will take place means it is read continuously by everyone.
