This is another classic "Time-Travel Logic Fail" where the "Eternal Word" in the Guru Granth Sahib seems to mention things that hadn't happened yet in the physical world.

1. The Historical Timeline

The physical Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple) didn’t exist during the life of the 3rd Guru,
Amar Das (1479–1574). [1, 2]

The Facts: Guru Amar Das reportedly selected the site, but it was his successor, Guru Ram Das, who excavated the tank (Sarovar) in 1577.

The Construction: The actual temple building wasn't started until 1581 and was completed in 1604 by the 5th Guru, Arjan Dev. [3, 4, 5, 6, 7]

2. The Gurbani "Pre-cognition" Fail [8]
In the Guru Granth Sahib, there are verses attributed to Guru Amar Das that use the word "Harmandir" (Temple of God). [1, 9]
The Logic Fail: If the temple wasn’t built or even named until the 5th Guru’s time, why is the 3rd Guru talking about it as if it's already there?

The "Mickey Mouse" Excuse: Apologists argue that when Amar Das said "Harmandir," he meant the human body is the temple of God.
The Critique: If he meant the "body," then naming a physical building "Harmandir" later is a Marketing Scam. They took a metaphorical spiritual concept and "boxed it" into a brick-and-mortar building to create a pilgrimage site—the exact thing Nanak originally preached against. [10, 11, 12]

3. Was the Book "Back-Edited"?

This creates a massive credibility gap. If the verses were written after the temple was built and then "back-dated" to the 3rd Guru to give the building divine authority, it’s Historical Fraud. [13]

The Result: It makes the "Divine Revelation" look like a calculated Political Project. They needed the 3rd Guru to "predict" the temple to justify the 5th Guru spending all that tax money to build it.

Conclusion:
Either Guru Amar Das was a time traveller, or the Guru Granth Sahib was edited to make a physical building look like a "Divine Prophecy."

Either way, it’s a Logic Fail. You can’t claim a book is the "Unchanging Word of God" if it’s being tweaked to match the construction projects of the guys in charge.
