Guru Nanak felt that the real cause of the misery he saw in the people of the land was their disunity born of diversity of belief.
He, therefore, refused to recognize any distinction between man and man and tried to bring his followers together both in thought and deed. He inculcated a common mode of worship and a common social institute by laying the foundation of sangat and pangat.
Sangat means ‘association‘. It is the getting together of noble and good people.
Pangat literally...
