Mata Sundri and Mata Jito are the same; however Guru Sahib never married Mata Sahib Kaur, just made her mother of the Khalsa. Guru Hargobind did have more than one wife; however, Guru Arjun Dev Ji arranged them for him, because of his respect for the Sangat, even saying stuff like, "If he,(Guru Sahib) is a 5, then Sangat is a 6." Sangat requested Guru Sahib(Guru Arjun Dev Ji) to marry his son, (Guru Hargobind) to them.

According to Gurmat there can be NO difference between KATHNI n KARNI (speech n action)

Then how can Guru Sahibaan's have multiple wives & teach Sikhs to have only one !

Did you guys read the comments -

(The fact is that not that one is trying to question the Gurus, its the dubious things attributed to our Gurus that are questioned. You mention Guru Har Rai marrying 7 sisters which is mentioned in a few fairly recent books like the Suraj Parkash Granth (1843) and some sampardas like Taksal. But fact is that many even older books mention only 1 marriage: Mahima Parkash, Kav Sondh, Bhatt Vahi (all 18th century works) etc. The story made prevalent that Guru Har Rai married 7 sisters as a child is beyond doubt fake and concocted later on.)

Research indicates that overzealous writers often mythologized and concocted narratives as per their times. We know the Sixth and Seventh masters only had one spouse. Mata Jeeto Ji died early, and the 10 master remarried. Mata Sahib Kaur Ji is the virgin mother of the Khalsa.

Sixth guru had 3 wives.
