278 GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART - II
The Guru did not accept his offer of hashish and sang another divine
song. Then Babar was delighted and he said: You stay as my hTUest. When he
insisted much, then the Guru agreed and stayed there for three days. But all
the three days he was looking at the prisoners with merciful eyes. On the third
day the Guru while singing a divine song went into a wondrous trance. Babar
thought that the Guru's soul might leave this earthly body but after sometime
the magnificent Guru became alert. His face showered heavenly radiance and
there was a dazzle on his forehead. Babar could not bear the dazzle and asked
him forgiveness.
Then the Guru said: If you wish forgiveness, then you release all the
prisoners.
Babar said: Whatever you order, I will do but you bless that my kingdom
should remain.
The Guru said: Your kingdom will remain if you become Indian in India.
TreatHindus and Muslims as equal, do justice without bias. Do not encourage
wine and gambling, respect the saints and Muslim priests, be merciful to the
losers, otherwise, kingdoms do not remain forever.
Justice is the sun and kingdom is its shade. Ifjustice goes, the kingdom
goes. On listening to the words of the Guru, Babar freed all the prisoners.
Then he asked the Guru to embrace Muslim religion but no Muslim intellectual
could come up to the spirituality of the Guru.
Then the Guru sang a divine song and Babar was impressed.
The Guru got all the prisoners freed from Babar and then he departed for
Pasrur. It is written that Babar also went back from here.
It is written that this happened in 1521 A.D.
How much benevolent the Guru has been to us while dyed in the love of
the Lord? How much calamity fell on Saidpur that is now called Eminabad?
The tyrant Babar's troops were so cruel to the people ofSaidpur. But how
the Guru allayed the suffering of the people in distress by his divinity and by
putting himself in captivity? How, he himself got imprisoned? How he faced
the most merciless king and how he freed the suffering people?
