GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II 351
Further, it appears that Sheehan Uppal lived up to the time of the fourth
Guru. Guru Ram Das, under instructions from the third Guru, founded the
city ofAmritsar, made dwellings for his stay and got a market constructed next
to the Guru market and Passian crossing. This market has merged with the
present Saburian market and has become bigger. On the wish of the Guru,
Sheehan also came and settled here. He constructed a house near this market
in a particular street. His brother Gajjan and other Uppal relatives also came
and settled here. On their settling here, the street was named Uppal Street.
And it is still named the same. In a nearby street Duggal families came and
settled and the street was named Duggal Street and it is still named the same.
Similarly, in another street Nayyar families settled and the street was named
Nayyar Street.
Mother GUjri came from one of these Nayyar families.
So, you and I have had a glimpse with love in eyes, with devotion in eyes,
of the ,gracious Guru Nanak Dev and the second, third and fourth Gurus and
'Guru-blessed Sheehan Uppal', his constant faith in the four Gurus and how
he got salvation through Name.
Yes, Sheehan Uppal, 0 dear, as you crossed the worldly ocean, as you
reined the wandering mind, as you did not kill your mind with stubborn-ness
but cultivated your mind ,vith the Lord's Name and you reached the Lord and
got bliss, in the same way you bless us and recommend to the Guru that we be
blessed. These blessings should be for all of us who are on the path of Name
so that we also cross the worldly ocean and get salvation.
o Great GURU NANAK DEV
The Guru's command to Sri Sheehan Uppal is repeated once again:
So, gentlemen, recite the Lord's Name so that your mind rises above the
earth and you feel the sensation of the presence of the Lord who is the hTiver
of nourishment to all, the saviour and the Supreme power.
Let us recite:
"Waheguru, Waheguru, Waheguru.'
'0 Lord, 0 Lord, 0 Lord'
Starting with at least five minutes a day.
