The benevolent Guru left this place and came to Balgundai's hermit.
Again after visiting many places and blessing people he came to Dera
Ismail Khan. Here, the Guru passed through a nice hTfam field. One young
boy, the caretaker of the field, was standing and was roasting hTfeen hTfams.
Mardana said: Let us go to the field and buy some hTfeen hTfams and eat.
The Guru understood that Mardana was hunhJTY. With a charming smile,
he turned towards the field and sat on the clean portion of its boundary wall.
The young boy, the caretaker of the field, very respectfully offered the
roasted hTfeen hTfams to the Guru. The Guru filled his palm with hTfeen hTfams
and gave to Mardana to eat.

saint and they seem to be hunhJTY, I should bring something good to eat so

Then the Guru asked: 0 son, where are you gOing?
He replied: 0 saint, I will bring some delicious food from the house for
you to eat. I will bring a sheet to spread. You can sit on the sheet.

In the biohTfaphy written by Bala is written:
In return for offering the roasted h'Teen hTfams with love to the Guru, the
Guru blessed him and the words of the Guru became true. After sometime,
he became a king there.

From here he went ahead and visited many places, blessed people with the
Lord's Name and reached Sindh.
Here at one place some Muslim pilhTfims had assembled for going to
Mecca. One pilhTfim started talking to the Guru and became acquainted. The
night, they stayed together. In the morning the pilhTfim said: You are a sadhu
because you are wearing a sadhu's dress. Butthe sadhus drink hashish. Neither
you have the hashish nor the pouch of hashish. Neither you have the cup to
drink nor the pestle to pound.
Guru: 0 holy man, I have got love ofmy Lord. This love has become my
hashish. My mind is the pouch where this hashish is kept. This hashish t,>ives
me intoxication that I am always madly in love of the Lord. This madness of
