Guru Nanak Quotes

«The son of a wife, not appointed ,to have issue by another , and he whom ,an appointed female, already the mother of a son, bears to her brother in law, are both unworthy of a share, ,one being the son of an adulterer and ,the other produced through ,mere lust.»
«Even the male ,child of a female ,duly appointed, not begotten according to the rule ,given above , is unworthy of the paternal estate, for he was procreated by an outcast.»

«He who takes care of his deceased brother s estate and of his widow, shall, after raising up a son for his brother, give that property even to that ,son .»
«If a woman ,duly appointed bears a son to her brother in law or to another , that ,son, if he is begotten through desire, they declare ,to be incapable of inheriting and to be produced in vain.»
«The rules ,given above must be understood ,to apply to a distribution among sons of women of the same ,caste , hear ,now the law concerning those begotten by one man on many wives of different ,castes .»

«The legitimate son of the body, the son begotten on a wife, the son adopted, the son made, the son secretly born, and the son cast off, ,are the six heirs and kinsmen.»
«Whatever result a man obtains who ,tries to cross a ,sheet of water in an unsafe boat, even that result obtains he who ,tries to pass the gloom ,of the next world with ,the help of bad ,substitutes for a real son.»
«If the two heirs of one man be a legitimate son of his body and a son begotten on his wife, each ,of the two sons , to the exclusion of the other, shall take the estate of his ,natural father.»
