Now listen to the discipline of kaliyug wherein nobody cares for the rituals.
Without loving devotion none will get any place anywhere.
Because of the disciplined life in the previous ages, the human form has been obtained in kaliyug.
Now if this opportunity slipped, no occasion and place would be made available.
As has been said in the Atharvaveda, listen to the redeeming features of kaliyug.
Now feeingful devotion only is acceptable; yajna, burnt offering and worship of the human guru was the discipline of the earlier ages.
If somebody now, in spite of being a doer, erases from his self this sense and prefers to be called lowly, only then he can remain in the good books of the Lord.
In Kaliyug, only repeating the name of Lord is considered grand.

Thereafter, all Sikh places of worship came to be known as gurdwaras.
