Multan
A t the Achal Watala fair the Guru rid Punjab from the influence ofsidhas
for all times to come and then he moved towards Multan.
When the Hindu saints and Muslim priests came to know, then they felt
un-easy. The Hindu saints and Muslim priests gave wide publicity by word of
mouth and decided to assemble in the evening at one point and decide the
future course of action to be taken to keep Guru Nanak away.
When everybody got together to ponder, then Sehju who was a clever
pandit said: We should send a bowl of milk full up to the brim. It is known
than he is without desires. He will understand the meaning and himself go
away_ If he stays here in h'Teed, then we will get together and put him into
trouble.
Accordingly, they selected a couple ofsaints who went and kept the bowl
of milk in front of the Guru.
On seeing the gift ofbowl ofmilk from the saints, Guru Nanak laughed at
the milk. He took a jasmine flower and placed it softly on the milk.
The beautiful flower blossomed on the milk.
In this way, the Guru sent a message to the saints that his coming here
was like a flower that does not cause trouble or suffering to anyone.
The Lord is withouL enmity. Saints should be without enmity. Everybody
should love each other.
Then the saints, Bahawal Hag, Shah Sharaf Abdul Qadir, Rattan Nath,
Jogesh Sehju and many others came and fell atthe Guru's feet Other prominent
persons also came and assembled.
The Guru welcomed everyone with love.
The Guru said: Everybody should live in this world butwith mind detached.
Like, the lotus lives in muddy water but is not affected by it.
