386 GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II<br />

<strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong>'s selection of the spiritual aspect of duty and its precept was<br />

exceptional.<br />

He did so much sacrifice in undertaking five travels, in those days when<br />

travelling was most hazardous. But still, he travelled far and wide to uplift the<br />

people, and allay their sufferings.<br />

He gave the love spark of the Lord to every one, gave life to the lifelessly<br />

living people and cemented the hearts of the people with the Lord.<br />

He travelled to Afghanistan, Iran, Baghdad, Mecca, Greece, Kashmir,<br />

Tibet, China, Assam, Manipur, Ceylon,Jagan Nath PUri, Benares, Hardwar,<br />

Rameshwar, Vindhyachal, Sind, Baluchistan and many other places.<br />

In those days, there were no good places to stay and many a time no food<br />

for days together. There were no trains, no telegrams, no cemented roads, no<br />

security, dacoits roaming around and the travel was mainly on foot.<br />

He travelled everywhere, hriving the Lord's love spark to the people and<br />

cementing their hearts to the Lord.<br />

For his sister Nanki, whenever she remembered, he came back from his<br />

travels and met her.<br />

For his sons and wife, when he went for travels, he told them: 'I have to<br />

serve the Lord. It is His <strong>com</strong>mand. I have to go. But the Lord is with you. The<br />

Lord will look after you.' Again when he came back from travels to stay at<br />

Kartarpur, he called them and asked them,to stay with him.<br />

He was perfect in the moral aspect of duty.<br />

Again, when we consider his precept of spiritual code in religion, we<br />

cannot forget that in place of the difficult Hath yoga, he made relihrion very<br />

simple for every body.<br />

He infused the Lord's love spark into everybody's heart and suggested<br />

the recitation of the Lord's Name as a· means to brighten the love spark and<br />

reach the Lord.<br />

Let us pray: 0, <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong>, please infuse the Lord's love spark into our<br />

heart and hrive us the recitation of the Lord's Name.<br />

Let us recite:<br />

'Waheguru, Waheguru, W aheguru. I<br />

'0 Lord, 0 Lord, 0 Lord'<br />

Starting with at least five minutes a day.<br />
