you to do. You yourself told me that he said, 'Do goodness and recite the
Lord's name with love'.
Is this not a command? You remain in the endeavour of Name. He will
meet you again. It is his natural repute that he meets those who love him.
When he will meet you, you will get his grace. You will feel ecstasy. You will
be in rapture. You will drink the Lord's nectar. One drinks the Lord's nectar
when the Guru is gracious. It is all hTface and hTface only. You cannot boast.
You cannot get it by stubbornness. To feel ecstasy is hTface.
Makhdum: I saw but my eyes did not open. I heard but my ears did not
listen. It was my shortcoming that I reached the door but could not reach the
goal. I met him but I missed him. I understood but did not perceive. Oh my
fate! Luck did not favour me.
Sheikh Braham: Your feeling sorry is wrong. Fortunate are the eyes that
have got a glimpse of Guru Nanak. Fortunate are the ears that have listened
to Guru Nanak. You have met him. You have got him. Now, remain in
remembrance of the Lord. That will be like sitting with Guru Nanak in your
mind. Recite the Lord's Name with love. Remain steadfast in Name. He will
meet you again.
In this way, after getting gUidance and blessings from 'the Guru blessed
Sheikh Braham', Makhdum wentto his place ofresidence and treaded earnestly
on the path of 'recitation of the Lord's Name with love'.
Later, when the Guru went to Multan and it is said that the saints of
Multan brought a bowl full ofmilk and put it in front ofthe Guru. At that time
while in travel from Achal to Multan the Guru stayed in the forest at some
place.
Makhdum, then heard about his travel and rushed to meet him on the
way.
Then the Guru was hTfacious and the saint who was reciting the Lord's
Name for a long time felt elevated and was filled with ecstasy. He got the
sensation of the Lord in his mind, heart and body and got everlasting inner
happiness.
