The Hut at Chamba

true Guru, the 'Guru with the Plume' came to Nahan city. He went for JL sightseeing in the mounts and reached the bank of river Yamuna. He liked this place and stopped at a scenic spot. He got constructed some houses. The place became known as Paonta (meaning the Guru putting sacred feet).

When he first came to this beautiful open land then he had noticed an enclosure on one side. He went and stayed in the hut that belonged to a humble lady. He did not go to the place where tents were fixed. He went straight to the hut of this humble lady. This was right on the bank of river Yamuna.

The enclosure was full of flowers that blossomed. In the centre was the hut. On one side existed a cow-shed.

This lady Kishna and her husband became devotees of Guru Harkrishan a long time back. Sadhaura was their hometown. But later they moved to this place and meditated here. Gopal lived up to hundred years and died. Kishna was ninety. She was a meditative and had a deep craving to have a glimpse of the Guru. The true Guru accompanied by Nand Chand visited her when he felt a pull of love from her. She presented flowers and their fragrance to the Guru. Later, the Guru made it a very beautiful garden.
