Detailed explanation-1: -Who was Guru Nanak? Guru Nanak was born in 1469 in Talvandi, a place now renamed Nankana Sahib, in the state of Punjab in present-day Pakistan. His parents were Hindus and they were Khatri by caste, which meant that they had a family tradition of account-keeping.
Detailed explanation-2: -Guru Nanak prohibited idol worship or worship out of fear or for gain. Baba accepted the Hindu theory of karma. The Guru condemned the caste system and ritualism and propagated a caste-free society. He was against the practice of yogis shaving their head, smearing ash on their bodies and renouncing the world.
