GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART - II 157<br />

o great <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong>. Great is your being in human life. Great is your<br />

being a servant ofthe Lord. You may say anything butyour be<strong>com</strong>ing human<br />

form is godliness for us.<br />

Are you a servant? It is your detachment from ego thatjoins man with the<br />

Lord. You are the beloved of the Lord. You are the right hand of the Lord. It<br />

is your h'Teatness.<br />

First you wash the dirty mind, then dye it with the Lord's name then you<br />

join it with the Lord. Please keep on doing it for us, powerless that we are.<br />

You are h'Teat. You are great.<br />

The pandit is in ecstasy today. He says: The <strong>Guru</strong> is notjust a saint. He is<br />

not human. He is surely a prophet. Mr. Joker's estimation was correct. <strong>Nanak</strong><br />

is a prophet. He has <strong>com</strong>e to allay the suffering of the world. He is the same<br />

<strong>Nanak</strong> that is mentioned in the scripture.<br />

The more he went into exuberance the more he said: He is a prophet of<br />

the prophets. Oh! The king truly said that this ecstasy is beyond the five<br />

senses of the body. What mistaken thought I had? I thought. he would be a<br />

skinny, lazy, lifeless sadhu and he will make us a fool. But the picture is<br />

different. See, how the mind is tranquil. It does not wander. There is a pull<br />

heavenwards and is giving ecstasy. This is sublime consciousness. The person<br />

who can bless this ecstasy cannot be an ordinary human being. He is surely a<br />

prophet sent by the Lord.<br />

When a learned and stubborn person <strong>com</strong>es to believe something, then<br />

he is more charmed by that belief.<br />

Then the scripture tells him in his ears: Was I not saying the same?<br />

God bless you. You were saying but it was you only who was wrongly<br />

interpreting.<br />

After the Pandit, people's faith in the <strong>Guru</strong> increased so much that people<br />

thronged to have a glimpse of the <strong>Guru</strong>. The <strong>Guru</strong> blessed everyone.<br />

Everybody got into the 'recitation of the Lord's name with love'.<br />

A large holy congregation was formed. In the morning they sang Asa-di­<br />

Var. In the evening they sang Rehraas and Sohila. People did their worldly<br />

chores and simultaneously recited the Lord's Name. Iv the bioh'Taphy is written:<br />

One person from the conh'Tegation used to invite everybody for dinner<br />

for the next day, then everybody would get together and have dinner.<br />

The <strong>Guru</strong> stayed there for a few days.<br />

King Shivnabh became the most respected person in the holy conh'Tegation.<br />

His love ofthe Lord was boundless.<br />

The <strong>Guru</strong> appointed him a seat and said: You are a saint to guide the<br />

people towards r,eligiousness. On the one hand you will rule the kingdom,<br />
