      Respected Brother/Sister,
      Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh!

      In response to your question the undersigned wants to say that there are ten swayyes of Bhatt Kal, in praise of Guru Nanak Sahib, at Pannas 1389 – 1390 of Guru Granth Sahib and you can’t read some swayyes in isolation. You have to read all together to arrive at a conclusion. Bhatt Kal, in his swayyes, is praising Guru Nanak Sahib and saying that he is above all those devi devtas and avtars, whose names appear in the mythology of Hinduism. In the final Pangti of the tenth Swayye, he is concluding as under:

      ਕਬਿ ਕਲ ਸੁਜਸੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰ ਘਟਿ ਘਟਿ ਸਹਜਿ ਸਮਾਇਓ ॥੧੦॥ {ਪੰਨਾ 1390} ਅਰਥਾਤ ਗੁਰੂ ਨਾਨਕ ਦੀ ਸੋਹਣੀ ਸੋਭਾ ਸੁਤੇ ਹੀ ਹਰੇਕ ਪ੍ਰਾਣੀ-ਮਾਤ੍ਰ ਦੇ ਹਿਰਦੇ ਵਿਚ ਟਿਕੀ ਹੋਈ ਹੈ।10।

      He is giving a good number of examples in praise of Guru Nanak Sahib, in his ten Swayyes, but finally concludes that the praise/glory of Guru Nanak Sahib is in every body’s mind.

      Hope it helps. If you have any further questions, please do ask. If you find any deficiencies, please point out the same, for improvement in future.

      Regards,
      Your brother

        It needs to be understood that the Bhatts (Bards),whose Bani is recorded in the Guru Granth Sahib, were Brahmins and were well versed in Hindu Mythological Philosophy and scriptures, had wandered all around but had not found inner peace.

        Some of them had earlier attended the congregations of Third Nanak, Guru Amar Das Sahib and Fourth Nanak, Guru Ram Das Sahib.

        When they read Gurbani and understood its spirituality, they came, in a group, led by Bhatt Kalshar, to see Guru Arjan Sahib when he became Fifth Nanak. Initially they were hesitant, on seeing a young Guru but they were deeply moved by his wisdom, spiritual grace and steady nature, amidst opposition by his brother Prithi Chand, prompting them to recite Swwaiyes in praise of him and his predecessors.

        Though the language of the Swwaiyes is drawn from, Hindu Mythological Philosophy and scriptures but it is in praise of Five Nanaks and need to be understood accordingly.
