HISTORY OF THE SIKHS
340 ter of the world.
^p ^^
All is in the hands of God.
In this
manner passed away the ^twenty-four manifestations. Mihdi Mir.— In such manner was Kalki destroyed but God manifests himself at all times, and at the end of the Kalyug, all will be his own.^ When Mihdi Mir had vanquished the world he became raised up in his mind. He assumed to himself the crown of greatness and power, and all bowed to him. He regarded himself as supreme. He taught not of God, but considered himself to be in all things and to exist everywhere. Then the Almighty seized the fool. God is One. He is without a second. He is everywhere, in the water and under the earth. He who knows not the One God, will be born again times innumerable. In the end God took away the power of Mihdi Mir, and destroyed him
utterly.
A creeping worm did the Lord create; By the ear of Mihdi it went and stayed The worm entered by his ear. And he was wholly subdued.

APPENDIX XX THE ADMONITORY LETTERS OF NANAK TO THE FABULOUS MONARCH KARUN; AND THE PRESCRIPTIVE LETTERS OF GOBIND FOR THE GUIDANCE OF THE SIKHS. Note.
—Two letters to Karun are attributed to
Nanak. The first is styled the 'Nasihat Nama', or Letter of Admonition and Advice. The second is styled simply the 'Reply of Nanak', and professes to be spoken. Karun may possibly be a corruption of Harun, the 'Harun el Rashid' of European and Asiatic fame. Both compositions are of course fabulous as regards Nanak, and appear to be the compositions of the commencement or middle of the last century. The two letters of Gobind are termed the 'Rabat Nama' and the 'Tankha Narria', or the Letter of Rules and the Letter of Fines respectively; and while they are adapted for general guidance, they profess to have been drawn up in reply to questions put by individuals, or for the satisfaction of particular inquirers. There is no evidence that they were composed by Gobind himself; but they may be held to represent his views and the principles of Sikhism. 1 Nij
