GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II<br />

On reaching home they started talking. The simple woman whose mind<br />

was now immersed in the Lord's Name and had blissful peace in her mind<br />

narrated the whole story to her husband. She also told him about the<br />

benevolence and grace of the <strong>Guru</strong>.<br />

Dada listened to all that and said: It is our luck and it seems our stars have<br />

started shining. He is a true <strong>Guru</strong>. You have understood him welL I am also<br />

convinced. Now, I will again go tomorrow and if he says, 'Ask for something',<br />

then I will ask him for a son and riches.<br />

Dodi said: Don't ask for these things. Ask him for the nectar that he has<br />

hriven me. This nectar remains with us always and will go with us even when<br />

we die, but the son and riches, one has to leave behind. His wife tried her<br />

utmost to persuade him but he said, he will ask for a son and riches.<br />

Accordingly, next day, again Dada went and fell at the feet of the <strong>Guru</strong>.<br />

This time, he himself had carried the pot full ofmilk and he himself offered it<br />

to the <strong>Guru</strong>.<br />

The <strong>Guru</strong> laughed and said: Dada, why have you brought the milk?<br />

Dada said: '0 <strong>Guru</strong>', I am without a son and riches. Some people have<br />

got ten buffaloes and forty cows and thousands ofsq. meters ofland. Bless me<br />

that I have a son and riches.<br />

The <strong>Guru</strong>' said: Do you wish for anything else?<br />

Three times he repeated the same but Dada was adamant and every time<br />

he said: I want a son and riches.<br />

Mardana said: 0 Gentleman. Ask for the Lord's love also.<br />

Dada said: That is your grace if you wish to bestow but first hrive me a son<br />

and riches.<br />

The <strong>Guru</strong> laughed and said: Some people free themselves from the worldly<br />

riches and entanglements by reciting the Lord's Name. But some people first<br />

get satiated with worldly riches and entanglements and then only try to free<br />

themselves from the worldly riches and entanglements. Yes, Dada you will get<br />

a son and riches and because of the <strong>com</strong>pany of the saintly Dodo Rani, you<br />

will get the Lord's Name also.<br />

IV<br />

Dada's wife whom the <strong>Guru</strong> had blessed the name 'Dodo Rani' had really<br />

be<strong>com</strong>e a queen. A sublime consciousness had <strong>com</strong>e in her body. Because of<br />

the rapture of the Lord's Name her mind was always in high spirits, in blissful<br />

peace, blooming and exuberant. Even a king sitting on a throne would not be<br />

in that exuberance. The inner happiness is now showing on her face and she<br />

is visibly very happy. Her friends see her changed nature and a moon-like<br />

blossom, her shining forehead and an added charm in her eyes.<br />
