320 GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II Ubare Khan: What you have said is true. I will not bow to a Hindu idolworshipper or a Muslim God believer or an infidel but otherwise I am a humble servant of all. Muslim priest: Are you indifferent even to a Muslim God believer. Ubare Khan: Like, when somebody offers a gold coin to you, then you are indifferent to pennies. Muslim priest: Why are you putting riddles? Say straight that you have got initiation. Ubare Khan: I haven't got initiation by any lifeless person uttering the Name ofthe living Lord. Muslim priest: Then you tell what have you got and from whom you have got? If not, then are you still in despair? Ubare khan: In despair and empty are the drums that shiver the membranes of the ear. False are the dazzles that come from strong lights. The earthen lamp hriving a small flicker of light is full. It is not empty. Ubare Khan is not in despair whose mind is awakened by the touch of a life spark from the godly soul. Why should I be in despair, now, that I have filled my inner self with the glimpse of the godly soul? Saying this Ubare Khan's eyes closed. His lips closed. His countenance showed glamour on his face and it appeared as if he was in love and gratitude. Muslim priest (in astonishment): Good. At least something you have said even that in riddles. At least I know now that you have got something. Now you tell have you got it from Nanak? Ubare Khan: This name that you said is just another name of the Lord. Muslim priest: Oh! You have become an infidel. Ubare Khan: Your words are welcome. You live long. Muslim priest: Why don't you say that you have become a disciple of Nanak? Ubare Khan: Whatever name you have mentioned you explain what do you mean by that? Muslim priest: A meditative, Hindu idol-worshipper. Ubare Khan: No. Muslim priest: What have you got? Ubare Khan: Glimpse, a glimpse of the godly soul. Muslim priest: What is his name? Ubare Khan: Godly soul. Muslim priest: That is not his name. Ubare Khan: That is the Name that has permeated in the body and is coming out as flowing from a fountain. The names that we utter by the tongue Page 330 www.sikhbookclub.com

GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II without love are empty rituals. The Name that comes as a hrrace from the Lord gives life. Muslim priest: Go away, 0 disciple of the infidel. On listening to this, Ubare Khan's hand went on his sword and said: Listen priest, I am a Pathan and not a coward. I am a disciple of the godly soul. Beware if you insult the godly soul. Muslim priest: Today, I will give you punishment of hanging under the Islamic law if you have become a follower of that Hindu idol-worshipper. I will also ban your Nanak's staying here. Ubare Khan: (taking his hand away from the sword): You said people tell wrong and you wanted to know the truth and you could bear the truth. I have not said anything. But still you are in fury. 0 priest, one may become jealous with equals but one should be humble to somebody who is godly. Muslim priest: When I will send him away then I will tell you who is big whether a Muslim Priest or a Hindu idol-worshipper? Ubare Khan: All right. Then I put my sword back because you are going to turn him out from here and hang me also. I won't say anything to you. You are going to turn him out. You are going to a Sandal tree as a saw. When you will get the frahrrance, after all you are a human, then your head will bow down and kiss his sacred feet. Talking nonsense and saying 'I will turn him out of the town' the egoist Muslim priest Sheikh Abdul Rehman rode on his horse and went away. Umra Khan whom people called Ubare Khan who was immersed in the love ofthe godly soul and was always in obeisance to him in his mind went to his house. There, standing at the door and waiting was Zabida Khanam wife of Ubare Khan wearing a red scarf and a light-hrray top and white pants. On seeing her handsome husband's lustrous face she said: a Khan, do not talk to people who do not have love in them. They have poison in their minds. They teach you hatred only. Ubare Khan: God bless you. Your mind has blossomed to see that I have been blessed by the godly soul. Nobody can take me away from the endeavour of Name. Zabida: I can see your blossoming mind. I do not like your talking to people who cannot see the blossom of your mind. Ubare Khan: What you say is true. Today, there was almost going to be a scuffle with the Muslim priest, Abdul Rehman. He said some insulting words for the godly soul. Zabida Khanam: Then why did you not cut his tongue with your sword? Page 331 www.sikhbookclub.com 321
