This religion preached the Divine Message of universal equality of all human beings, and the worship of only one Supreme Being; it has flourished not only in the home state of Guru Nanak, Punjab, but all over India, and to some degree even in the neighbouring countries of Nepal, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, and beyond. Many Hindus, and quite a few Muslims too, became Guru Nanak’s followers. But we have not been able to teach the world about the greatness of Sikh religion, and most Western scholars define Sikhism as an offshoot of Hinduism, or at best, a good combination of Hinduism and Islam. Some people believe that Sikhism is just a product of the Bhagati Movement.

However, this subject has gained more attention recently for the right reasons because many scholars are interpreting Gurbani in their own ways. This paper has tried to determine the possible causes/excuses which may lead some scholars to misinterpret Gurbani. Eleven such possible causes/excuses have been identified in this regard and discussed in detail. I am hopeful that if careful attention is paid to these causes/ excuses, chances are that there will be much less disagreement among scholars on this subject, and hopefully, we can interpret the holy Gurbani correctly.
