374 GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II
After sometime the Guru came. Although, on the advice of Bhai Lehna
people had corne out of despair and were reciting the Lord's Name but when
the Guru came and whoever bowed to him, he hit him with a wand.
Those whose mind was accustomed to the pat on the back sibTIlifying
blessing, now thought that this is not a blessing instead it is a curse and they
