Kabul Chand: O friend, have you listened to something new? Duni Chand: Is it regarding some prices or commodities? Kabul Chand: No friend, it is not prices. We have been listening to stories that some prophet is born. He has come to Lahore. Duni Chand: Who is that prophet? Sansar Chand: Well, haven't you heard his name? Duni Chand: You tell some details.
Kabul Chand: Name? People call him Nanak and his companions call him Guru Nanak Dev Ji.
When he listened to the name, Duni Chand felt a sensation.
Duni Chand: O yes, yes, yes, he who has saved the city of Sialkot. Hamza Ghaus had cursed the city.
Kabul Chand: Yes, the same.
Sansar Chand: O Brother, The Lord has shown benevolence that somebody has come among Hindus who doesn't criticize anyone, who is not afraid of anyone, whose supremacy is acknowledged even by the Mohammaden faqirs and the Muslim priests and the Mullahs hesitate to talk against him.
Dilbagh Rai: Yes, it is correct. We have heard that he spoke very boldly to king Ibrahim Lodhi at Delhi. They say: The elephant-keepers requested him that our elephant has died and we have become jobless. You pray for us. He said: Go and rub your hand on the elephant's face and say 'O Lord' in his ears. The elephant keeper did that. In no time, the elephant shook his body and stood up. O friend, he is powerful. He has supernatural powers. He has shown miracles. The kings, the nawabs, the sadhus, the faqirs and the Mohammedan priests give him respect.
Duni Chand: When the elephant became alive, then the entire city must have flocked there.
Dilbagh Rai: What else? Even Ibrahim Lodhi himself came. He was delighted to have his glimpse and asked: O saint, have you made this elephant alive?
Guru Ji said: It is the Lord who commands births and deaths. Saints can pray. Grace is His. Then the king said: If the Lord listens to the prayers of the saints, and is gracious, then you pray that this elephant should die. Then Guru Ji said: It is the Lord who commands births and deaths. If he wishes then death can come in no time. O Brother! He had just finished saying this that the elephant lay flat on the ground dead. The king was bewildered. He said: You make him alive again. Then Guru Ji said: O King, if you put iron in fire, then it becomes hot. You cannot touch it. Even a slight touch will burn the hand, but if you pick up a burning coal for a moment and throw it away, then your hand does not get burnt. But no swiftness will save the hand from burning if you touch it with iron that is hot. Similarly, the saints are dyed in His love. They can change what the Lord has done but the Lord will not change what the saints have done. The king said: O saint you are immersed in the love of the Lord. I have understood what you have said. For the love of His saints the Lord accepts if a saint in grace interferes in what He has done but for the same love when the saint has done something, He does not nullify that. It is wonderful. You are great. You accept some offering from me. Guru Ji replied: O King, I do not have a desire for riches that is vexing even the kings. I am detached from that desire. Yes, I do have a desire, but that is of the Lord. I am dyed in His love day and night. I live on His support. I walk and roam with Him. His Name is my eating and drinking. But still I have a sweet, sweet and loving, loving hunger for Him. This hunger makes you satiated from worldly desires. And keeps you in exuberance in craving for the glimpse of the Lord. Realizing the spiritual strength and fearless nature of Guru Ji, he bowed in reverence.
Sansar Chand: Then have you heard another story?
Duni Chand: Which story?
Sansar Chand: About Panipat.
Duni Chand: No, do tell.
Sansar Chand: You must be knowing that Abu Ali Qalander who is also called Shah Sharaf, was a disciple of Khwaja Qutubudin, a saint of Delhi. He travelled in India and abroad in the company of Shamas Tabrez and Maulana Jalaludin Rumi and later settled in Panipat. His disciple is there on his third seat these days. He is a Mohammedan but they say he has done meditation
and penances like his ancestor and is a known saint. People call him Shah Sharaf the third. He also composes verses in Punjabi. He is a highly respected and intellectual saint in Mohammedan circles. One of his disciples Sheikh Tatihari came to fetch water. There, Guru Nanak Dev Ji was sitting at the well. He thought it was some Muslim saint, so he said: Salute to you. But the bold and dauntless Guru Ji did not say salute. He had no fear that the Muslims are ruling and if a Muslim priest makes a complaint it might be a risk to one's life. Yes, Hindus have no respect. They are treated like animals. But see, without any fear he said: Salute to the Lord.
Sansar Chand: It means, I do not salute you. I salute the Lord who is invisible and who is formless. Sheikh Tatihari was bewildered as to who can return the salute like that? He ran back and told his mentor. He thought: No Mohammedan would return the salute like that, being afraid of his own Muslim priests, and no Hindu is so bold to do that. This saint must be a big saint and a real saint. Let us go and meet him. In this thinking he came. Then he had discussions with Guru Ji. O brother, God bless you. It is said that he kept up the discussions for over three hours. He asked questions after questions but got proper replies that he could not repudiate. God bless you. In the end he fell at Guru Ji's feet. This, I have been told by somebody who was present there. Shah Sharaf said: You have realized the Lord. I have no questions to ask you. Then he shook hands with Guru Ji and kissed his hands and touched his feet in reverence and went away.
Duni Chand: What is this kissing of hands?
Sansar chand: First you shake hands and then kiss them.
Duni Chand: A known Mohammedan saint, if he shook hands and kissed them and then fell at his feet, then what better respect can one give? I am sure such a thing has not happened in the last four hundred years, that a Mohammedan saint bowed to a Hindu saint.
Dilbagh Rai: This is the thing. This is the strength. From this we can judge, Guru Nanak Dev Ji is not just a saint. He is surely a prophet. O master, yesterday one pandit was talking maliciously and another was telling that a prophet has come and by his influence evil will vanish.
Duni Chand: Then he is so good. Why was the other pandit talking maliciously against him?
Dilbagh Rai: Well, it is just bad habits. One can't stand the rising of the moon. O brother, the real thing is that the Hindu religion is ours but I am ashamed to tell the truth that the Brahmins have no spirituality in them. Just show off is there. They can only say, put money here, put money there.They are neither educated, nor in meditation.They have no character, or any
purity of mind. Had they any character and religion or the Khatris had any character or religion, then could the Pathans ever conquer? For centuries, people are in revelry. They have gone away from religion. So they have neither force nor religion nor strength. Like a decayed tree, the moment the storm came, they fell flat. Then they fell down so much that they did not get up and then why should anybody wake up the sleeping?
Duni Chand: That is true. But why was the Brahmin talking maliciously?
Dilbagh Rai: He was questioning. Why he has a Muslim companion as a rebeck player? Why does he not wear the sacred thread and why does he not follow the other rituals. Why does he allow freedom in eating? Why does he not keep fasts? Why is he keeping such long hair? Why does he not wear a long cloth? Sometimes he wears something and at another time he wears another type of dress. Sometimes he wears a dress that is half Hindu and half Mohammedan. Sometimes he wears a dress that is half ascetic and half family man. What is all this? One pandit said that he is a prophet and it is mentioned in the scripture that he has to come. But the other pandit talked maliciously.
Duni Chand: But why does he observe all these different codes? What is your view?
Dilbagh Rai: If he were like us then I would say something. But he is a prophet He has come from the Lord to allay the suffering of the people. What can one say about one who is powerful? The fire is powerful. Whatever you put in it becomes ash. The Ganges is powerful. Whatever you put, it doesn't get dirty. The sun is powerful. It shines everywhere whether good or bad. The sunshine is never dirty. One cannot put any blame on something powerful.
Duni Chand: That is true but there must be some meaning in his observing all these different codes.
Dilbagh Rai: I have heard, he says wear the sacred red thread on your mind. If there is no thread on the mind then what is the use of wearing the thread on the body? He says, after wearing the thread people indulge in vices. Nobody controls his five senses. Wearing the thread means you have been initiated into religion in one of three castes that can embrace religion namely Brahmin, Khatri and Vaish. This is the symbol of religion. This means you will go by what the religion tells you. Now, the religion is gone, only the symbol remains. He makes fun of those who wear the sacred thread but are not religious at all. He tells them to be religious and imbibe the love of the Lord and live in His remembrance and be truthful.
Duni Chand: O God! If the idol worship is gone, then what remains of Hindu religion?
Dilbagh Rai: I heard from a pandit who has studied the old scriptures that the Buddhists worshipped the idol. They did not believe in God. They thought there is no God. They were pious and good but away from the Almighty Lord. Gautam Buddha himself did not say anything against God but his followers did not believe in God. When Buddha passed away, his followers were in grief. God was not the support in their mind. Kind deeds only were not sufficient to support the mind. So, where did the Buddha followers find support? They had Buddha in their mind. So, they made idols of their handsome saint so that they may see the saint in their idols and worship him. In this way, the idol worship started. Firstly, there was devotion to Buddha in these idols and secondly, the art of sculpture flourished, but the result was that devotion to Buddha vanished and it became a ritual only. Again, when the Brahmin priests became strong, then they made idols of their own saints and constructed temples and in place of the Buddha discourses they started their own discourses from the old Hindu scriptures. In this way, Hinduism became an idol worshipping religion. Guru Nanak Dev Ji says: The stone is not God. You sculpture a god in it. You love the idol.
Why don't you love the living omnipresent Lord? The Lord is not in the idol. He is a living Supreme power. He is formless. Our soul is not an idol. It is a power. So, you love the loving Lord. You bind the body soul with the Supreme soul. Love is the cement that will bind it. Go on the straight path. Outer mind to intuitive mind, intuitive mind to body soul and body soul to Supreme soul. Enjoy the ecstasy all twenty-four hours when the body soul has met the Supreme soul. Take blessings from Guru Ji.
Duni Chand: It's nice. I have really enjoyed your talk.
Dilbagh Rai: Again, you see, if we were not in idol worship, then the enmity of Muslims would not have been so much for which we are now suffering. Similarly, I have heard cutting of hair and keeping a tassel, has also been learnt from the Buddhists. In the scriptures, God is said to be with long hair and a beard. All saints had long hair. Our prophets Ram and Krishna had long hair. The Buddha idols are showing Buddha with long hair and hair tied into a knot. When the Buddhist monks started hatred of the body, then only, to make the body look ugly they cut the hair, thinking it to be a decoration. The simple householders followed suit. And this became a habit. Later, the Brahmins and pandits kept the tassel and started the ritual of cutting the hair and made it a religious symbol. So, actually the old tradition is keeping long hair. The ritual of cutting the hair is not mentioned in the old scriptures. Similarly, he makes a fun of all dresses, when he wears half Hindu and half Mohammedan dress or some other dress. The thing is that whether a sadhu
or a faqir or a celibate or a recluse, only the dress has remained. O Brother, you see, religion is not dress only. That is what he emphasizes. He says, be religious. So, in my view, he is right. Now, if you talk of the Mohammedan rebeck player as his companion, he has proved that he is secular and the religion that he is preaching is for all. In my view, we are Hindu in name only. He is the real Hindu and what he is preaching is the correct thing.
Duni Chand: How does he go along with Hindu sadhus?
Dilbagh Rai: In the same way as with others. He tells them about their hypocrisy and puts them on the correct path. He went to Gorakh Matta and stayed under a shaded tree. There the sadhus came for discussions and acknowledged his supremacy. Last Sharaf bowed to him. Similarly, Pandit Chattar Das of Kanshi fell at his feet. He has visited all pilgrimage centres.
Everywhere, fearlessly, he told them to do away with hypocrisy and be pious. He is bold and frank. It appears the God of love has come to earth.
Sansar Chand: I myself went there day before yesterday with dear Mansukh Ji, our well known elder. Duni Chand (interrupting): Yes, Mansukh Ji is a thorough gentleman. What about him? Sansar Chand: He is a disciple of Guru Nanak Dev Ji since long. He is devoted to him and has lot of faith in him. He took me along. One is delighted to have a glimpse of him.
Dilbagh Rai: Even I went. He was sitting on the bank of the river Ravi. His glimpse gives ecstasy.
Kabul Chand: Your name is ecstasy (In Punjabi language Dilbagh means ecstasy).
Dilbagh Rai: But I felt ecstasy day before yesterday when I met him. His charming eyes spelled magic.
Duni Chand: Listening to your talk, I have become eager I should also have his glimpse. Do some service to him. The wealth that I have, offer him some. It will be fruitful.
Dilbagh Rai: The death anniversary of your father is near. You invite him to your house. It will be good time to meet him. The ladies will also have his glimpse and be delighted. They hardly move out of the house.
Duni Chand: That is a good idea. But will he come? He is so great.
Sansar Chand: Well. This is a bit doubtful. While at Saidpur Sandyali he did not go to Malik Bhago's house.
Kabul Chand: He doesn't go where there is pride and ego. He goes where there is humility. Maybe he goes to those rich people who invite him with love.
Dilbagh Rai: I have heard, after quitting the job of Stores manager at Sultanpur, he went and stayed in the forest. When Daulat Khan Lodhi the
Nawab of Doaba sent a message to come for the sake of the Lord , he came. You must have heard the story. Duni Chand: Which story?
Sansar Chand: The Mohammedan priest said: You say no Hindu and no Muslim or both are equal. You have said because you feel both are not treading on the true religious path. But saying prayers is religion. You come with us for prayers. So, everybody went to the mosque and they took Guru Ji along. There, everybody stood up and said the prayer. The priest stood in the front to pray and make others pray, but Guru Ji stood there and saw everything and kept smiling. When the prayer finished, the Muslim priest said: O Nanak, why did you not recite the prayer with us? Instead you were smiling and making fun of us. Then Guru Ji smiled and said: O priest, tell the truth whether you were saying prayers or were you thinking of the mare that has given birth to a baby mare and all the time you were afraid that the baby mare may fall in the well in the verandah. Then the priest said: You could have said prayers with the governor. Guru Ji replied: The governor was all the time at Kabul buying horses. The governor admitted that it was true. The Muslim priest also admitted that what Guru Ji had said was true.
The Nawab became devoted to Guru Ji and said: These riches and governance is all yours. Then Guru Ji said: God bless you. This is all for you. I am departing. Everyone, whether he was a Hindu or a Mohammedan, stood with folded hands to see him off. The sadhus kissed his feet Guru Ji blessed everyone and then accompanied by Mardana Ji departed. So, friends, where there is love, he does not bother whether the person is rich or poor, he comes. Malik Bhago was taking bribes and making the poor people suffer. That is why he did not go. I have heard that he squeezed a fried bread brought from Malik Bhago's kitchen and blood oozed out. He told Malik Bhago, you see you are making people suffer. Then he squeezed a coarse bread brought from Lalo Ji's kitchen and milk oozed out. He said: This is honest earning of a pious man.
Duni Chand: Then I should myself go on foot with the love that I have for him and invite him. I hope he will then come.
Dilbagh Rai: I am sure for your love he will come.
Duni Chand: I have love for him. I am not telling a lie. No doubt I am engrossed in wealth and I have the weight of millions on my head but my heart has melted. When shall I have his glimpse? Maybe he does some miracle and I am blessed.
Dilbagh Rai: From his disciples who are called Sikhs, I hear that he falls for those who have love in them. He preaches fear of the Lord and love for
humanity, service to humanity and he joins you with the Lord while living in the family.
Duni Chand: Then I think my wish will be fulfilled. Now it is late at night. Tomorrow morning, if you all come then we can go together.
Dilbagh Rai: We shall do as you say but it might be better if you go alone.
I have heard if you go alone, you get more satisfaction.
Duni Chand: All right. I shall go by myself. I was hesitating. If you all come, then you will be my support.
Dilbagh Rai: You don't need our support. The Lord is the support. Have faith in Him.
The beautiful river Ravi is flowing gracefully engrossed in the command of the Lord. It is early morning. It is the golden time. From the west is coming a cool breeze embracing the river water and bringing its love. On this side of the bank is sitting a godly soul in meditation. Mardana Ji is singing a divine song. One can see a heavenly splendour on earth. Someone, whose soul is awakened and has realized that away from the worldly thunder of desires there is life after death. This life is short, that life is forever, and has realized this in his mind, comes and bows his head and sits down quietly. So, many such handsome people are sitting engrossed in the love of the Lord.
Yes. Those who have realized that death is not an end, it is another life. It is a transition. Here are sitting, those, who have by the grace of Guru Ji recognized that this world is a school, a college, where we have to gain experience as to what is good and what is bad and we have to learn what is sublime life. In this materialistic world, we have to fight anger, sex, greed and ego and learn to ride over these passions as a master rides a horse.
Here are sitting, those who have recognized that we have our body, we have life and we have a soul. Our soul is a spark of the Lord. This spark is a part of the infinite flame that is the Lord. This spark has not to remain covered with ash. It has to be kindled big and big enough to merge with the flame i.e. the Lord. These people have realized that this is our life's aim. This has to be our endeavour. By the touch of the spark, the body has got life.
Our life is sandwiched between the body and the Lord's spark. This human life is very precious. The body has the worldly attachments. We have in this body the spark of life but our mind is akin to the animal world. We are behaving like animals because the animal instinct in us has the upper hand. But in the mind, we have intellect and intuition. These are not animal instincts. Then there is the sublime instinct that tells us we are not animals, we are not men we are saints. This sublime instinct prompts us many a time to look
towards the Lord. Our education makes us better persons than the un-educated. An educated person is more sensible. But if he has not controlled his senses and tries to become clever and makes fun of religiousness, piousness, godliness and saintly living and thinks highly of himself, then he is stupid.
With education he has known the outer mind, the sub-conscious mind and the intuitive mind. Now he had to go further to the sublime mind. Now, he says this is the only sweet world and there is nothing beyond because it is not in his knowledge and he cannot see. If he thinks like that and lives a life of greed, pride and material gains, then Guru Ji has called him stupid.
The animal mind cannot go far and see beyond and understand. Like, in a winter month, some men stayed in a forest and made fire to stay away from cold. The men were putting more and more wood to keep the fire burning all night. In the morning the men went away. The monkeys sitting on the trees came down and sat near the fire for sometime, but shortly the fire was extinguished because they did not put more wood to keep the fire burning, although there was a lot of wood lying nearby.
The monkeys did not have the brain and knowledge as to how to kindle a fire and how to keep it burning. Theirs was the animal mind. But man has got the intellect to see beyond, but he sticks to his five senses and does not go beyond. Beyond is the sixth sense. He does not try to feel this sixth sense that is like a sun inside our body. It is regrettable that even after being educated so much, man still lives with his animal instincts and spends his entire life in material gains only. Yes, those who are now, by the grace of Guru Ji, in search of this sixth sense are listening to the divine songs being sung by Mardana Ji. Duni Chand has also come in this holy congregation, where there is no pleasure of the five body senses, where the mind is not enjoying the passions of the body, but the mind is at peace.
The mind is free from wandering in passions and is relaxed to turn itself towards the fountain of life, where the body soul is touching the Supreme soul, so that it gets the life giving sensation of the Supreme soul and the exuberance and ecstasy that come along with it. Duni Chand, whose caste is Dhuper, belongs to Lahore. He is the son of a very rich businessman who has left a lot of wealth to his son. On the top of his house one could see seven flags. Each flag indicates a wealth of one million rupees. To be owner of a wealth of seven million in those days was a very rare richness. This rich man of fame has today come to the hall of audience of the master detached from wealth. That hall of audience is the bank of the river, the sky being the roof and the green grass the carpet. He has got the glimpse. His eyes like a bowl drank the nectar of the glimpse to their full. He had glimpses of many rich
kings, sadhus, Brahmins, Muslim saints and faqirs but Duni Chand's eyes never got this coolness and delight that he has got from Guru Ji's glimpse. He kept on looking at Guru Ji's face for quite long. Other people came, bowed and sat down, but he kept on looking. Then he bowed his head and for so long it remained bowed down. Then the moment he sat down he got engrossed in the ecstasy of the divine music. Duni Chand has got accumulated wealth and he is earning also. But he is not a miser, nor he makes anybody suffer for his gains. He has business acumen and his stars are shining. He is not in backbiting or a hypocrite. He is a simple family man and a businessman. But his mind is engrossed in business all the time. It is never free. He was much impressed by the talk yesterday. So, he has come today. His friends and business associates who were talking yesterday have also come and are sitting. When the divine music stopped and people started going, after bowing down to Guru Ji, then Duni Chand came forward and fell at Guru Ji's feet. Guru Ji touched his head and said: Welcome. God bless you.
Duni Chand: O Guru Ji, O benevolent Guru Ji, be gracious and come to my house. Tomorrow is the death anniversary of my dad and we have arranged lunch. You are blessing everyone. Tomorrow, you put your sacred feet in my house. Be benevolent.
Guru Ji: Gentleman, you give your introduction.
Duni Chand: O true Guru Ji. I am your servant. I am a businessman in the city. Businessmen are crazy. They are always after business. I have heard a lot of your praise. I have become eager that you make my house sacred.
Guru Ji: We are sadhus. You are a rich man. We live in forests. You live in mansions.
Duni Chand was quiet. His mind said: Riches are a curse. Something that I consider is giving happiness, this godly soul considers it to be a dead snake to be thrown away. What should I do now? I may request once again.
Duni Chand: You are true and great. Yes great (lips staggered).
I am nobody. I am like a cobra snake sitting on my wealth. But you are benevolent and the saviour. Guru Ji again touched his head and said: Duni Chand. I will come myself to your house. Don't worry and you need not send anybody to fetch me. I will come myself. Duni Chand was delighted. He was happy as if he has added eighth flag to his existing seven flags.
Ill
Guru Ji reached Duni Chand's house. All arrangements were done. All the Brahmins of the city had come. The priest was conducting the rituals of the anniversary. Besides the city sadhus, many other sadhus, ascetics, yogis, recluses and many other guests had come. Besides this, there was a large gathering of
relatives, friends and business associates. But something that was most surprising was that the prophet who generally kept away from crowds, pomp and show and who was the prophet of the prophets and image of the Lord has come to a wealthy Duni Chand's house on the occasion of a feast where there was so much pomp and show. But who knew that everybody else has come with a beggar's mind to get some gain but the godly soul with the fragrance of godly musk has not come for any gain. He will make him free from the greed of money and make him a king of the soul. He will give him kingship. So, he is a giver. Although he has come to a multimillionaire's house, he has come to shower grace and to give ecstasy.
Guru Nanak Dev Ji is without desires. He is always a giver. He has come to a rich man's house out of love and devotion. This is Guru Nanak Dev Ji's neutrality. Whoever has love, whether rich or poor, whether a king or a destitute, an employee or a businessman, he would bless him with the Lord's name. He has no hatred for the lower caste and no attraction for the upper caste. He has no hatred for the rich who are humble. He has no attraction for people with ego, and stupid people.
Where there is love, there is Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Where there is Guru Nanak Dev Ji, there is soul awaken-ness, there is love of the Lord, there is devotion to Name and there is sensation of the sixth sense. Now, the lunch was ready. The Brahmins had food, were given money and they went away. Other invitees also had food and they went away. Duni Chand became free now and came to Guru Ji. He had made Guru Ji sit in a decorated room and Guru Ji sat immersed in the love of God.
Duni Chand: O Guru Ji, you had said 'I will have lunch later, after others finished'. Now, the rituals are over. Shall I get lunch for you? I will serve. You eat. I will be delighted. Then Guru Ji smiled and said: O Duni Chand, What was the function in your house today?
Duni Chand: O true Guru Ji, it is the death anniversary of my father.
Guru Ji: Is it over?
Duni Chand: The priest has done all the rituals rightly. Guru Ji: What was the purpose of this ceremony?
Duni Chand: Service to my father. So much food is served. It should reach him.
Guru Ji: Then has it reached him?
Duni Chand: The priest said, 'your father is satiated. Nobody does this ceremony so well in this Un-enlightened era (Kalyug) as you have celebrated. Your charity has become fruitful. Your father is satiated'. In this way, the Brahmins have blessed.
Guru Ji: Well! He said well and heaved a sigh. He looked towards the sky and then looked towards Duni Chand and said: Listen Duni Chand, the purpose for which you did everything is not served. The Brahmins were satiated, the priests were satiated but your father is not satiated. He is hungry for the last three days. 'A wolf, hungry for the last three days', your father is not satiated. Duni Chand was startled. Is it really so? My father is not satiated even after spending so much and offering so much food? Is he a hungry wolf? Is it so? He remembered that Guru Ji is intuitive. He will tell the truth only.
Then with folded hands, he said: Please, you tell. Where is my father? How is he hungry? Can I meet him or is he beyond my reach? Please be benevolent and tell.
Guru Ji: You go towards northwest to the forest near the river. There, you will see one wolf lying hungry. Don't be afraid. There you will see your father standing. He will talk to you also. He will tell you that he is hungry and that the food has not reached him. Then Duni Chand hurriedly got up and went He reached the spot, but in the forest he could not see anything. Then he looked towards a bush and saw a wolf. He went forward and saw a wolf lying and from its body a white smoke rising. Soon, he saw hands and feet in the smoke and next a figure appeared. When Duni Chand saw intently, then he recognized it was his father only. He bowed to his father and asked: Father, are you satiated or not?
Father: Not satiated.
Son: The anniversary food has not reached you? Father: No. It has not. Son: Why?
Father: O son, it is all business in this world. There is no love. Nobody is a true Brahmin. Nobody is a true sadhu.
Duni Chand: How did you reach in this state?
Father: From birth only, I had no connection with God. The entire life, I spent in earning more and more and I was never satiated. Then I did not find a good saint. Whom I trusted was a fake sadhu in rituals only. He was not in the love of the Lord. After I died, I came to understand that love of the Lord is the prime religion. My mentor had told me: You quit eating fish.
I asked him: Will I get salvation like this? He said: Yes, if you act on my words you will get salvation. I trusted him. One day he said: If you eat fish, you will get the next life of a wolf. This also stuck in my mind. My son, when my end was near, then in the neighbour's house fish was being cooked. The
smell of the fish came from there. It was so captivating that I desired I should eat fish. In that desire only I died. When I came out of my body, things were entirely different. While living, I was so rich. Now, I was in some un-satiating hunger. My whole life, I had lived for myself only and was getting money from others and amassing. Then what I saw was that I am alone, but like, as I was on earth. Then I realized that I am like a wolf.
On earth, if someone is too hungry, you call him a wolf. So, I saw myself like a wolf, alone, naked, in some prison and I am a prisoner. What more should I tell you? I was in suffering since then.
You have done a wonderful thing that you have invited the godly soul to your house. It is because of his sacred feet in your house that I am seeing myself as a man. The darkness is gone. Light is coming. People are coming around to support me. Son, I can see a fine road. l am going up. God bless you. You go but now since I have seen I may tell you that I have suffered a lot You don't come and suffer here. The godly soul is sitting in your house. You fall at his feet. Do whatever he says. You will find peace of mind. Don't let this precious lifetime go waste. Here, one feels sorry that what was the use of the accumulated wealth? The fame earned in this world is not worth a penny. Nor there is any worth of high caste or high ancestry. The kings, the rulers and the tyrants, are powerless here.
Where you are, from there, good deeds, praises of the Lord and recitation of Name, you bring along here.
This, I am telling you from a new awaken-ness that I have got now by the blessings of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. I can see all this very clearly now and I am telling you. Son, God bless you.
Saying this, the father's figure went higher and higher and vanished like a melting cloud.
But, within moments another figure with splendour and love came there and said to Duni Chand: Have you seen the state in which your father is? The entire life he spent in desiring for more and more wealth and the passions of the body. He went on tying a chain around his neck. Even after death he remained on the earth and he was living with animal instincts, so he got an animal life and was suffering all the time.
Duni Chand: O God-sent, who are you?
Saintly figure: I am in service in this unseen world that you consider is not there. Those who have wasted their life on earth, we give them advice so that they may understand and tread on the Lord's path from now onwards at least But generally, people make their minds so dirty on earth, that it becomes difficult to help them. But even then the Lord's grace is there. People do take
advice from us and start treading on the Lord's path. Then their dirt on the mind is washed. Some go to a higher sphere. There are innumerable spheres that are difficult to mention.
Duni Chand: Where has my father gone? What happens after death?
Saintly figure: He has left the body of the wolf. He has now seen that he is a soul and he has understood that if he makes an endeavour then he can go on becoming more and more handsome and light and go on rising higher and higher. He has perceived where peace is. When a person dies, then the soul of those who had loved the worldly desires and had remained in the passions of the body all their life, their soul remains on earth. They get different types of bodies, according to the deeds done.
Then they come here who are hard criminals. They have become hard by living like animals. Their souls remain in suffering but we go to them and ask them to repent and pray.
What you sow on earth, you can reap it here. It is difficult to sow here.
Duni Chand: Our feasts go waste, because my father was not satiated.
Saintly figure: Dear, you are a moneyed man. This sphere that you are seeing is a divine sphere. If you were in the love of the Lord, then your prayer, your good wishes, your blessings would have reached your father. In any case, your earning is not bad. But mostly people are earning by grabbing, deceiving, and telling lies. If they expect that their ancestors will be benefited with that money, then it is stupidity. If one earns honestly and is in the love of the Lord, then if he gives in charity for the benefit of his ancestors, that may be all right. But otherwise, it is just a ritual and the Brahmins earn money.
Duni Chand: Even if my mind was dirty, the Brahmins and pandits whom I served did pray. Why that went waste?
Saintly figure: The thing is that these days the Brahmins and pandits are hypocrites. They have no devotion for the Lord. They are absorbed in the desires and passions of the world. They have no religiousness in them. It is all a show. How will their prayer help?
See, the godly soul has come to your house. He hasn't had food from your house till now, but by his showering grace, your father has been blessed and he will bless you also. Of course, he is a godly soul and powerful, but even a saint who is in the recitation of Name and is absorbed in the love of the Lord, his company is holy company. Serving him is fruitful. His blessing is beneficial. Serving him food is the real feast, the real charity and the real feast for the ancestor's soul.
Duni Chand: How is it that you are so benevolent to an evil person like me? You are telling me all the things of the heavens.
Saintly figure: I am not telling you from my own self. I am telling 'From whatever rays of light are coming to me', of the divine Scripture. This divine scripture has not been written in any Script so far. But I am getting rays of light of this 'Divine scripture' from Guru Ji.
Guru Ji wishes to bless you. He has ordered me to tell you all this.
Guru Ji himself will tell you everything. Then Guru Ji will write this divine scripture in a language that you will understand and the world may benefit from jt The gracious Guru Ji is sitting in your house. The saviour has ordered me to tell you these things.
Then your father, when he took leave from you, prayed to the Lord that good sense may prevail on you, so that you may not be devoid of the godly soul's blessings and that ego should not entice you. You should take his blessings. That is why, I have told you that in the Lord's court the bad deeds are weighed and the guilty are punished. This is an opportunity, a Lord's grace. You should catch it.
Duni Chand: What happens to simple pious people when they go to the next world?
Saintly figure: Those who are simple, who do not give suffering to others, who are kind, who have faith in God, they get peace here. But those who are in recitation of Name and immersed in the love of the Lord, they have got salvation. That is indescribable and beyond words. They are at the lotus feet of the Lord. You must understand that the Lord's Name reaches you to the highest stage.
Duni Chand: You bless me.
Saintly figure: Duni Chand, you listen with attention.
Firstly, the true Guru Ji is sitting in your house. Don't think he is an ordinary sadhu. The true Guru Ji is from the Lord. The true Guru Ji is immersed in the love of the Lord. You recognize him as such. Have faith in him. Love him.
Take it from me, without Guru Ji one cannot reach the Lord.
Secondly, the true Guru Ji will preach 'recitation of Name'. Start practice of Name.
Thirdly, 'recitation of name' is meditation. You have to meditate, devotional meditation, meditation with love.
Living in devotion and meditation you have to remain humble. You have not to nurture pride or ego like the other preachers. Do not go after empty rituals.
Remain in devotion and remain in desire to meet the Lord.
Fourthly, do good deeds, remain in contentment, earn honestly, remain
away from vices, do goodness to others. Don't get absorbed in the world. Eat a little less. Sleep that much that should keep the body relaxed.
See, there is something like misunderstanding. Don't ever misunderstand that Guru Nanak Dev Ji is a good saint. I should serve him food and then bow to him and see him off.
At this moment, you understand him as a Lord's image. But on reaching home you may have a misgiving and you may not consider him like that. He is a prophet of prophets. He is a godly soul from the Lord. He has to appoint preachers, saints and ideal men in good numbers. Preachers are always required.
He himself is a saint and a Guru Ji. You take guidance from the saint-Guru Ji.
Don't think that I have by chance seen you from another world and am guiding you, and that is all. Don't misunderstand this way. I am at his service. This is Guru Ji for whom the gods, prophets and saints are ready to sacrifice themselves. He is a real Guru Ji. You adore him. He gives manliness to men who are full of animal instincts and from manliness to saintliness and again from saintliness to immersion in the Lord's love. He makes man a saint He gives light to our inner self.
Like the sun and moon give light to the eyes, similarly, Guru Ji makes the mind a crystal.
See, Duni Chand, there are many educated people in the world who have studied the scripture. They talk good and show themselves as preachers.
Then they have followers who sing their praise to the world. People touch their feet. It appears that they are pious and good. But actually they are like a fake sesame plant in a sesame field. It grows bigger than sesame but has ash in it. Similarly, those who are self-made preachers, they only read something and start preaching. But knowing something has no value, unless one becomes something that he has known.
If you wish salvation, then you take guidance from the saint-Guru Ji. He gives you Name. He is a ship in the worldly ocean of fire. Reading and gaining knowledge is not bad. One must read and gain knowledge. But one should act on the knowledge gained.
This wealth and fame entice your mind and one remains in the forgetfulness of the Lord. If you think wealth and fame can give inner happiness, then it is a wrong notion.
Inner happiness can come if you have faith in the Lord, when you are in the recitation of Name and remembrance of the Lord. When one is in recitation of Name then one does goodness to others. Then one remains away from
evil. Then there are those who are atheists. They argue that because they cannot see God, there is no God. Do not keep company of such people.
They are educated but stupid. They come and suffer here.
I am again telling you that the Lord is the creator and by reciting His Name one is able to meet Him.
You get engrossed in the love of the Lord. Read those scriptures that teach truth, kindness and charity and recitation of Name.
All reading is fruitful if one understands that the Lord is the creator and we have not to forget Him at any time.
Duni Chand: It is your goodness that you have given me so much enlightenment. But I am in little fear. You remove my fear and pray that I love Guru Nanak Dev Ji.
Saintly figure: There is no room for fear, because the Lord is not fearful. He is somebody who loves more than the parents. He is not a proud king who would give punishment
He is a saviour and a true father and a true mother.
People are suffering on account of their own deeds. If a child puts his hand in fire then he burns his hand himself. Nobody is giving him any punishment.
The Lord is always benevolent Even for hard criminals he has devised ways to take them out of their sufferings.
He blesses those whom he loves, in this sphere, and then he sends prophets and saints to the earth to bless people whom he loves and to give them the spark of love.
All over the world where humanity is there, He is showering His grace. Think the Lord as loving as a mother.
See, it is the Lord's extreme grace that He has sent Guru Nanak Dev Ji to this world.
He gives life to humans. This also is His grace. In human form we live in this world. In fighting with the passions of the world, our body soul i.e. the spark of life becomes stronger and stronger, like a wrestler becoming strong by wrestling. Similarly, when we fight with the worldly passions our body soul becomes strong.
Don't think that the Lord has created this world by mistake and it is a house of suffering.
This world is a marvel of the handsome Lord.
It is His happiness. Here our soul becomes strong and flourishes.
It can flourish to any extent. The more one gets nearer to the Lord, the more happiness and ecstasy one gets. Happiness, ecstasy, rapture is limitless.
So, don't be the least afraid. Be happy to see that we can flourish to any extent and reach the Lord's palace.
But listen, one should have fear of the Lord also. Like the child has fear and love for his father. Without this fear the child becomes fearless. This fearlessness can incline him towards vices.
This fear and love is not a dread that squeezes your mind and heart It is a sweet fear and love. It makes you love the Lord.
The Lord's marvel i.e. this universe is limitless. The Lord who is the creator, He knows all. We cannot understand everything. For us it is sufficient to understand that we have been created by a loving Lord.
He is our loving mother and father. To love Him and to hold His finger as a child holds the mother's finger is our happiness.
If in a fair, the child let-goes the mother's finger, then he is in distress even in the fair.
We should hold" the finger of our mother (the Lord) and live in her presence (presence of the Lord). Then the entire world is a fair and happiness.
When we are living in the presence of the Lord, then it is happiness while living in this world and after death also.
After saying all this, the saintly figure rose high up as a figure of light.
The rays of light from the rising figure came in Duni Chand's eyes. Rising further up, it vanished.
Duni Chand's bewildered eyes closed. He put both his hands on his eyes and sat down. He kept sitting for some time in semi-consciousness. Then he got up. He rubbed his hands on his eyes. All visions had vanished. It was forest and himself. He walked home slowly. On the way, he tried to remember all what had transpired. Then he said to his mind: This Nanak is a real godly soul. Nobody can show such miracles otherwise. He knew that his father is in suffering after death. Oh! We are erring. We write our own destiny. We become what we think all the time. Since I am doing business the whole day, my wife has told me that many times I talk of business in my dreams.
In this way, after my death, I will remain in the dust of the markets. Who is to blame? What I do in my entire life, I become that. What is past is past The least I should do now is to save the present and future. That saintly figure had said that the godly soul is sitting in your house. Should I fall at his feet? O miraculous Guru Ji, how you have shown me the unseen. That is why everybody acknowledges your supremacy. O great Guru Nanak Dev Ji, O great Guru Nanak Dev Ji. I should see you as such. This love that I have for you should remain. What shall I do now? Should I leave the business? There is plenty to eat Should I go and
live in a forest? Or should I go to Hardwar, Gaya, Benares, Mathura and live there? Should I construct an idol temple? Then I can become a priest there. But the saintly figure had said, I should recite the Lord's name with love, not to make anybody suffer, remain in humility and do good to others. O Yes, he had said, I should do what Guru Ji says. Then why should I worry? Whatever he orders I shall do. I forgot that. O great Guru Nanak Dev Ji, I adore you. Whatever you order I shall do. Why should I worry? The saintly figure had said, "Guru Nanak Dev Ji will show you the light". If I were enlightened, then I would have known where my dad is and what is in the unseen world. I remained in the dark although my mind was so intelligent in making money. O man with intellect and ego. You are still in the dark. Now, I should stop thinking. O thoughts go away. My thinking will not reach me anywhere even if I think a million times. I will still be in the dark. The saintly figure had said that light is with Guru Ji or with the ideal men blessed by Guru Ji. Guru Ji is the bestowal of light. The Ideal men are the bestowal of light and at this time Guru Ji is sitting in my house. The handsome Guru Ji is sitting in the house of a wealth-conscious businessman. The prophet has come to bless the people. He is the prophet of the prophets. Now, I should reach home quickly as if flying. But what should I do? I should sacrifice myself for him. I have remained in the dark all this life. Now, my eyes have opened. I adore you. O Guru Nanak Dev Ji. I will always adore you. You have made me a man from animal. Now, you will make me a saint from man. This is what the saintly figure had said:
Guru Nanak Dev Ji turns forms, beasts into humans, and human into saints from man. O great Guru Nanak Dev Ji.
I should fly and tell him, "Let me be at your feet". I should also smear the sacred dust of his feet on my forehead. I should stick to his feet as the dust sticks. I am also dust
While Duni Chand is returning he is thinking. Sometimes he sees the vision in his eyes again and again. On the way, many acquaintances greeted him but he did not even notice them. He was engrossed in his own thoughts till he reached his house.
Guru Ji was sitting in the hall and Mardana Ji was playing a light tune on his rebeck. Inside, Duni Chand's wife and all members of the family were waiting, so that as soon as he comes everybody will have food.
When Duni Chand reached his house, he did not go inside. He went straight and fell at Guru Ji's feet "You are great. You are great You are great", he went on saying and held Guru Ji's feet as a child holds the mother's neck. a O Guru Nanak Dev Ji you bless me that I should not forget you. I should adore you always".
The beloved Guru Ji said: Duni Chand, get up. God bless you. You will reach the Lord. You will go to the Lord's palace with respect. You get up.
Duni Chand: O intuitive Guru Ji, I have understood you. You have opened my eyes. You have shown me the unseen sphere. Now I should not go into any misgiving. I should see you as a true Guru Ji always. I should never go into misgiving that you are something else than the godly soul. I should always see you as a godly soul and beloved mine.
Beloved Guru Ji: O Duni Chand, be in high spirits. You go inside. Your family is hungry and waiting. You have food and your family may also have food.
Duni Chand: O benevolent Guru Ji, I shall do what you tell but O saviour, you also have food. You are my family. You are my relative. You are my friend. You are my associate. You are everything. I am nothing. You are my strength now. Come inside, put your sacred feet inside the house. Have food. Then the family will have afterwards. My mind is dirty you wash my mind.
Seeing so much love, intense love, Guru Ji had tears in his eyes and he stood up and said: Come Mardana Ji, let us have the ceremonial lunch. With head bowed and hands folded, Duni Chand is leading and the beloved Guru Ji in graciousness follows.
Used to living on the banks of rivers and forests, Guru Ji goes inside a luxurious mansion.
When they reached inside, Duni Chand said to his wife: Come and fall at the feet of the true Guru Ji.
His wife was intelligent, sensible and loving. She fell at Guru Ji's feet.
The true saviour said: God Bless you. Lord Bless you. Get up. Be in high spirits. Bring food. Serve food. Give to your husband also. He is hungry since morning. To allay the hunger of the hungry, he has been giving food to the hungry. But neither the hungry were satiated nor he was satiated. Everybody remained hungry. O Child, get up and bring food. Food is a gift from the true King, the Lord. Food is all a charity, a gift from the Lord.
Was this a speech or a shower from the fountain of nectar that it made everybody cool when it showered on trie ears? The un-easiness of hunger was gone.
One is satiated with food. But see the beloved Guru Ji's words have satiated the un-easiness of hunger.
With love in heart and happiness in mind, Bhagwanti (Duni Chand's wife) brought food in a tray, and placed it in front of Guru Ji and sat down.
On one side, Duni Chand, dyed in Guru Ji's love, sat down.
Then the beloved Guru Ji picked up some food from the tray and gave to Duni Chand and said: Eat this Lord's gifted food. Then he gave some food to Bhagwanti and said: Eat this Lord's gifted food. Then he gave some to Mardana Ji and said: O lover of divine songs, eat food. All food is sacred. The Lord has gifted. Eat and be satiated. Recite the Name and sing His praises.
After saying this, he looked upwards. His charming eyes had 'Love-tears',
O great Lord. Then he had a little food.
When they finished eating food, then Guru Ji said: O child Bhagwanti, go inside and serve food to your family. They are hungry and are waiting. Then Bhagwanti went inside.
Duni Chand: O Beloved Guru Ji, handsome king, tell me some service.
The miraculous Guru Ji asked Mardana Ji for a needle. Mardana Ji had a needle stuck to his rebeck. He took it out and gave it to Guru Ji.
The true Guru Ji gave it to Duni Chand and said: Take this needle.
Keep it safe. When we shall meet in the next world, then 'I will take it back from you'.
Duni Chand took the needle, bowed his head and nothing came to his mind. In eagerness to obey Guru Ji's order and dyed in Guru Ji's love, he just said all right and went inside. Bhagwanti was serving food to the family.
Duni Chand said: You give this work to someone else and come with me inside. We have first to do the work Guru Ji has given.
Bhagwanti (inside): My dear, what is Guru Ji's order?
Duni Chand: He has given this needle to keep it safe.
Bhagwanti (in astonishment): For what purpose?
Duni Chand: He says, he shall take it back in the next world.
Bhagwanti: My dear, the true Guru Ji is perfect and miraculous. He has given some indication to do good to us. I have all adoration for the true Guru Ji who is showering blessings like rain. My master, take this needle and tell him: O Guru Ji, how will we take this needle to the next world where even the body will not go? Then he will be benevolent and give some light to our dark inner self.
Duni Chand also realized. He also appreciated his wife's love for Guru Ji and her sensible suggestion. His mind said: I had faith in Guru Ji after seeing his miracle but she has got faith just by having his glimpse. Her sensibility is great When he came and spoke to the beloved Guru Ji, then Guru Ji said: Duni Chand, what are these seven flags swaying on the top of your house?
Duni Chand: This is the deceptive wolf that makes you hungry and makes the hunger increase day by day. This is the wealth. This is seven millions.
Guru Ji: If you cannot take a needle with you, how will this go with you?
Duni Chand: O Lord Sent ! While living, the mind is happy that I have millions. I have respect in this world. People are around me. There are people to support me. Rest, neither my father took it along nor I will. Now, I have realized. You have made me realize. Otherwise, everybody goes away with grief in heart and greed in eyes.
Guru Ji: Yes Duni Chand, one has to be steadfast in this realization.
A man has three companions:
1. Wealth. 2. Relations. 3. Deeds.
Up to the time of death, wealth is your companion.
Up to burning your body, relatives and friends are your companions.
Beyond that, your deeds are your companions.
Those who have done good deeds get happiness.
But one who does the prime deed 'Recitation of the Lord's name with love' he reaches the Lord.
The Lord's name is the Lord's love. This love reaches you to the Lord. Duni Chand: Now, you bless your grace.
Guru Ji: Your entire life is spent in accumulating money. The mind is attached to it firmly. Whatever we do everyday, that binds the mind, like a snake binds in a coil. If you wish to free yourself from its trap, then you do the reverse thing. Give it in charity in the service of the Lord. Don't throw it away. It is a servant. In the name of the Lord, give away what you have accumulated to the needy and poor. I know you have neither been cruel to anyone nor have you made anyone suffer while accumulating this wealth. You have squeezed your own blood and strained your own mind and cleverly accumulated this. The binding of this wealth on your mind is very strong.
If you can give it away, then your mind will come out of lifeless-ness and become enlightened. Then you can earn in an honest way and spend. You think in your mind, if you can make an endeavour. Yes, you also take your wife into confidence on this issue. Duni Chand: O Guru Ji, O Guru Nanak Dev Ji, O my master, I should see you as the saintly figure had made me understand. No doubt, I am attached to my wealth but now I have more love for thy feet
I shall sacrifice seven millions for the sake of the love of thy feet I shall sacrifice even seven billions on thy orders. My wife, I may ask if you say, but I am in obeying your order and she is in obeying my order. She will bow down on your feet on your orders.
Guru Ji: You go dear. You have to free yourself from the mistress of the world. Both of you ponder.
Duni Chand: All right. As you say, I will do.
Then he went inside. The relatives had already left and Bhagwanti was sitting alone. She listened to what Guru Ji had advised and said: O dear, if Guru Ji says that I am your wealth, then I may be thrown in the river Ravi. To obey his orders, I will myself jump into the river so that you don't get any blame for throwing me. Wealth, man accumulates, but it is dear, more to the wife. But your wife is bound to your orders and Guru Ji's orders. Throw away, this accumulated dirt. You earn. I will cook. Both of us will remain in adoration of Guru Ji. We adore the dazzling forehead of Guru Ji. We adore the charming eyes of Guru Ji. Throw away the seven millions. I will be delighted. My husband will be delighted. My Guru Ji will be delighted. My Lord will be delighted.
Duni Chand came and told Guru Ji all what she had said.
Meanwhile, Bhagwanti herself came and fell at Guru Ji's feet and said: O Guru Ji with the charming eyes, who was that who wrote seven millions on our forehead? Now, if we throw it away it is 'your given' only. Your servants are throwing away wealth on your orders. We are nobody. You give us some gift that should go with us. You give us the love of your sacred dazzling soft feet.
On listening to these words that had a love sensation in them Guru Ji had tears in his eyes.
Yes, Duni Chand gave away seven millions in charities in happiness and delight Both husband and wife did not sob. They did not heave a sigh. The wealth accumulated by ancestors and the self-eamed money accumulated, like a bee makes honey, he gave away the full honeycomb in charities.
The beloved Guru Ji saw that his mind has become strong. He has won over the attachment of the mind and discarded so much wealth. His mind has become pure.
Duni Chand also felt that the weight of the wealth on the mind has gone and the mind has become light.
Then Guru Ji was benevolent The gracious Guru Ji blessed Duni Chand with the Lord's name. Duni Chand became a true disciple and got into the 'recitation of the Lord's name with love'.
News spread in the city, like wild fire, that Duni Chand, the multimillionaire, the topmost businessman has become a Guru-disciple, and he has given away all his accumulated wealth in charity. He has got into the 'recitation of the Lord's name'.
The sacrifice of a topmost renowned businessman in the city became widely known. People were amazed. What magic is there in Guru Nanak Dev Ji's words that whosoever he blesses gets transformed. People thronged to have
Guru Ji's glimpse. Many people started treading on the path of 'recitation of Name'. There was hustle bustle of holy congregation.
Duni Chand constructed a gurdwara in his house, and the holy congregation assembled everyday to listen to the divine songs with music.
Guru Ji left for Talwandi quietly.
Duni Chand, like he was a renowned businessman, became a renowned saint.
The discourse that Guru Ji gave to Duni Chand, Guru Ji composed in 15 stanzas of Asa-di-var.
How fortunate was Duni Chand, for whom Guru Ji composed 15 stanzas of Asa-di-var and it became a lighthouse for guiding the people of the world for times to come.
What happens after death? What are the reasons? How to save ourselves and get happiness? The true Guru Ji has illustrated in this scripture.
O great Duni Chand you got salvation and many more got salvation along with you.
Guru Ji's words to Duni Chand are repeated once again:
One who has done the prime deed i.e.
'Recitation of the Lord's Name with love',
He will reach the Lord.
Let us also recite:
'Waheguru, Waheguru, Waheguru.'
('O Lord,0 Lord,0 Lord')
Starting with at least five minutes a day.
