Aad Ji I think, my name is getting hard for you to spell, even though it is written in every post of mine, so I'll give you a simpler version of the name, Bhagat... too bad there isnt any. HeheJios and Baghat ji,
But The Wanderer is speaking the truth!
If The True One Himself is All, then All is He Himself. All is He Himself. It is a matter of finding that truth within. It didn't go anywhere. It is just hard to see because we are looking in the wrong direction.
And....Naanak didn't leave us either... He is still here.

Three Basic Interpretations
Without going too deep into the different levels of meanings of each tradition, a subject far beyond the scope of an article or even a single book, we can say that every scripture and revealed writing has at least three different levels of reading: 1) a literal reading, 2) a symbolical reading, and 3) a metaphorical reading, corresponding respectively to a life centered around 1) mind and ego, 2) subconscious mind and, or 3) illumined intellect and soul.
Whatever the level of understanding of the reader, he will gain some knowledge which he can immediately utilize in his life. In addition, the regular study of this material will develop his intellect and grant him access to deeper and deeper levels of meanings.

Here is meaning in essence of Shabad you have quoted.
ਚਉਥੈ ਪਹਰੈ ਰੈਣਿ ਕੈ ਵਣਜਾਰਿਆ ਮਿਤ੍ਰਾ ਹਰਿ ਚਲਣ ਵੇਲਾ ਆਦੀ ॥ਕਰਿ ਸੇਵਹੁ ਪੂਰਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਵਣਜਾਰਿਆ ਮਿਤ੍ਰਾ ਸਭ ਚਲੀ ਰੈਣਿ ਵਿਹਾਦੀ ॥ ਹਰਿ ਸੇਵਹੁ ਖਿਨੁ ਖਿਨੁ ਢਿਲ ਮੂਲਿ ਨ ਕਰਿਹੁ ਜਿਤੁ ਅਸਥਿਰੁ ਜੁਗੁ ਜੁਗੁ ਹੋਵਹੁ ॥ ਹਰਿ ਸੇਤੀ ਸਦ ਮਾਣਹੁ ਰਲੀਆ ਜਨਮ ਮਰਣ ਦੁਖ ਖੋਵਹੁ ॥ ਗੁਰ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਭੇਦੁ ਨ ਜਾਣਹੁ ਜਿਤੁ ਮਿਲਿ ਹਰਿ ਭਗਤਿ ਸੁਖਾਂਦੀ ॥ ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਪ੍ਰਾਣੀ ਚਉਥੈ ਪਹਰੈ ਸਫਲਿਓ*ੁ ਰੈਣਿ ਭਗਤਾ ਦੀ ॥੪॥੧॥੩॥ {ਪੰਨਾ 77}
“Oh my dear friend as fourth part of life-night comes, a call from Him to depart is served, my friend Guru is above error and seek refuge in him and follow his teachings (what is the teaching?(To be lost in the thoughts of Almighty) Don’t be lazy,( means don’t get lost in other affairs and fail to get time to do simran). Satguru is beyond error (means whatever Satguru says about His Simran is true, don’t doubt it.) Only through simran you will have eternal spiritual experience and be able to experience Waheguru and also it will get you from cycle of coming and going. Do not see any difference between Satguru and Waheguru because taking refuge in Guru’s company you shall be able to fall in love with the creator.
Question: what is the dominating idea in this Shabad?
Answer is Waheguru. What is preached here? Seek refuge in Satguru to do simran.
Why? Guru’s company enables us to fall in love with Waheguru.
Why there is no difference in Satguru and Waheguru( Because Guru has realized Him)
“JIN JATA SO TIS HEE JIHA” Ramkli dakhni Onkar GGS Ji
( means who realizes Him becomes like Him)
Your problem as I see is that you are stuck with “ Satguru sayeen jiha” You guys are more interested in proving that Guru is God, contrary to my position, I stand by Satguru’s bachan that states that in fact Waheguru is beyond birth and death. In that context Satguru declares obviously .In Bharon Mehla 5
ਸਗਲ ਪਰਾਧ ਦੇਹਿ ਲੋਰੋਨੀ ॥ਸੋ ਮੁਖੁ ਜਲਉ ਜਿਤੁ ਕਹਹਿ ਠਾਕੁਰੁ ਜੋਨੀ ॥੩॥ ਜਨਮਿ ਨ ਮਰੈ ਨ ਆਵੈ ਨ ਜਾਇ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਾ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਰਹਿਓ ਸਮਾਇ ॥੪॥੧॥ {ਪੰਨਾ 1136}
This strong declaration is against those who says Waheguru incarnates by cursing them to think that way.
“ਗੁਰ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਭੇਦੁ ਨ ਜਾਣਹੁ ਜਿਤੁ ਮਿਲਿ ਹਰਿ ਭਗਤਿ ਸੁਖਾਂਦੀ ॥ Here
Stress is to follow Satguru since as said by Satguru Nanak” ones who totally are lost in His thoughts are become like Him” Onkar GGS JI. Still the principle of Satguru of God’s being beyond incarnation stands intact. Satguru taught us to be logical to be aware of superstitious and fairy tales but this Brahmin mentality is dragging some Sikhs back to the point from where Satguru liberated them.
Another point about immorality of Satguru,( as aad0002 pointed out) there is no doubt he is. Even after over 500 years still Guru is guiding us and will continue for ever. As Satguru inspired, I have fallen for Waheguru. I am unable to pay gratitude what Satguru has done for me, how much I adore and revere Satguru, is beyond words. Do not judge me with your narrow thinking. I have no affiliations to anyone but Guru. Rest is left on ones determination to follow Satguru and respect for what He stood for. His coming was expressed by Bhai Gurdas as “risen sun that dispels mist” but your approach is undoing what Satguru was sent to do and did . Third Nanak very strongly urges us
ਹੁਕਮੁ ਮੰਨਿਹੁ ਗੁਰੂ ਕੇਰਾ ਗਾਵਹੁ ਸਚੀ ਬਾਣੀ ॥ ਕਹੈ ਨਾਨਕੁ ਸੁਣਹੁ ਸੰਤਹੁ ਕਥਿਹੁ ਅਕਥ ਕਹਾਣੀ ॥੯॥ {ਪੰਨਾ 918}
So I am going to follow him, the major dominating principle of Sikhism, to be in love with Him by praising WAHEGURU through Gurbani
Rest I leave to WAHEGURU. When I am full with limitations what right have to judge others. Peace!!

Pk 70 and namjap ji,
We are all learning and it shall continue till the final call. We are all acting as per HIS hukum.
I have posted above the translation of Dr.Sahib Singh ji that shows that there is perfect alignment with that you have stated.
The above shall be helpful to those knowing Gurmukhi. However, that pk70 ji has stated is the essence of this shabad as per Sahib singh ji's version as well.

Question :
The katha that cannot be told/said/stated/understood is called as Akath Katha. What is this Katha.?Why has it been stated as above in Granth Sahib ji.?
Anyone in the know of the things may kindly like to share.
pk70 Ji and All,

Sikhism is very beautiful, I am not praising only because I strongly believe in but because it has an eye opening approach. Akath, is refered to The Inexpressible. Katha, literally means, story. in simple words, it is possible to express The inexpressible; however only by meeting trueGuru. True Guru had that experience, with his help The Inexpressible can be understood. In mool mantra Satguru just makes an effort to express His some fundamental qualities but later on says that it is not enough whatever he said or being said about Him in the past. People say repentable things, they get proved wrong. That thought leads one to Guru to have His experience who is beyond words. Tragedy is that people understand anything only with the help of words or numbers. Gurbani says that still experience of Inexperssible is very much possible but one need to prepare for that, by merely saying things are doing rituals will not take you to that state of " Akath Kathna( to express the inexpressible). Hope it will help you.

You are doing wonderful job for the SPN fellows by searching and posting relevant material. We are all here to learn, no one is perfect, in my view, only Satguru is perfect who does a perfect job to mend us and lead us to The Ultimate Truth, our CREATOR.

well said! hehe, even if we ask Him/Her, He/She won't give anything to us, if He/She doesn't want to, since we have no control over the almighty. So no point in asking. Just say "Sarbat the Bhala."

Sikh this is again a metaphor, Guru Nanak says God is formless and is unseen, so how did guru see Him/Her?
well, Guru Nanak says Lord can be seen only when, you have no anger, lust, etc (those 5 thieves), when you consider human race to be equal, etc. Seeing the Lord is not the point here (because that's impossible), the point is how you can see the Lord, once you start doing that(getting rid of 5 thieves etc etc) you become an amazing person. So amazing that YOU HAVE SEEN THE LORD, because back then (and even now) people thought anyone who saw the Lord must have been a good person.
But seeing the Lord is a metaphor for saying I have gotten rid of my anger, lust, greed etc. I know that the Lord is in everything around us, so I treat everyone equally, and so on.
So, says Nanak my mind is in harmony with the Lord. I have gotten rid of my 5 thieves, believe in equality and selfless service, and so on. Doesn't sound as good as seeing Waheguru? That's why Guru Nanak said I saw Waheguru, and showed us how we can "see" Him/Her.
Maybe, you should post the whole passage.
