* Naam Simran- loveful remembrance of God Naam Simran (loveful remembrance of God) is the universal religion because the practice of Naam (Simran) requires neither any rituals nor any Karma Kanda. It requires a person simply to stabilise his mind (soul) in the remembrance of the Supreme Soul (Ekonkar of Guru Nanak).

* Babar Vani BABAR VANI (Babar's command or sway) is how the four hymns by Guru Nanak alluding to the invasions by Babar (1483-1530), the first Mughal emperor of India, are collectively known in Sikh literature. The name is derived from the use of the term in one of these hymns: "Babarvani phiri gai kuiru na rod khai Babar's command or sway has spread; even the princes go without food" (GG, 417). Three of these hymns are in Asa measure at pages 360 and 41718 of the standard recension of Guru Granth Sahib and the fourth is in Tilang measure on pages 722-23.
