	The Concept of Sahaj in Guru Nanak’s Theology
		There are many points of similarity and divergence between Guru Nanak on the one hand, and the totality of the Indian medieval protestant and non-conformist mystic tradition, and the individual mystics belonging to this tradition, on the other.
		The ultimate objective of Guru Nanak was the achievement of Sahaj experience which the Sahajayanis identified with mahasukha, but the Natha-yogi objective was to attain the state of jivanmukti or immortality in life, according to their own way of life and its interpretation.
		A technical term is not interchangeable, but Guru Nanak seems to have admitted the interchangeability of mahasukh with param sukh and param anand, and - by and through - this simple means he seems to have divested the term and concept of mahasukha of all its exclusive Tantric yogic significance.
