Why were there 10 Gurus in 'human' form?

[Premi5]

A simple question but say compared to other religions where there is just one main 'prophet'

Why were there 10 Gurus in 'human' form?

Why so many? 

[Dsinghd]

This makes Sikhi very powerful.

Other religions couldn’t make it this far.

Prophet Muhammad had 4 successors (Caliphs).

Jesus had 13 main followers.

Hindus have the Trimurti.

All the Gurus had the Jot of Guru Nanak Dev Jee.

[puzzled]

But look at all that beautiful history that took place under the span of the 10 gurus. Its a blessing. Look at the seva that Guru Amar Das ji did for Guru Angad Dev ji  at the age of 70 walking backwards from kadoor sahib to his native village so that he didnt turn his back to the direction Guru Angad Dev ji was sitting. How would we have all this beautiful history if we only had 1 guru

because to reveal and nuture the truth in the age of kalyug it needed hammering home -this is a spiritual revolution not just a social and political one , to change the world's future you have to build a solid foundation. There were not so many , there was only ONE ever

which religions have just one prophet?

Jews have many prophets, which are also shared by Christians and Muslims!

There  was 1 in 10 forms

Actually 1 in 12, but hey what do i know.

For people who are confused,  its our 10 Gurus, plus Guru Granth Shahib Ji,  and Dasam Granth ji

You should be teaching semantics at a uni.

The comparison is wrong as others have said.  Also Gurbani says there is only one Guru who is Akal Purakh himself.  Maybe read Gurbani and your mind will not travel into atheist thinking.

Why is the comparison wrong? 

I am not asking this question as atheist, I am just wondering if there was any reason we had so many Gurus?
