GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II 87<br />

So, the Lord is present here, there, everywhere. He is omnipresent. The<br />

difference is in the perception of the mind. The mind is enticed in worldly<br />

desires. It has to be awakened.<br />

Mehta Kalu: How does the sleeping mind awaken?<br />

<strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong>: One has to recite His name, remember Him sitting, standing,<br />

walking, sleeping or while doing chores. One should never forget Him.<br />

This remembrance, this incessant remembrance breaks the veil ofdesires.<br />

This remembrance settles in our mind and removes all distance between our<br />

self and the Lord.<br />

On listening to this, Mehta Kalu again looked towards the <strong>Guru</strong>. At this<br />

time, his mind was in devotion and the sentiment of son was not there.<br />

In wondrousness, he saw that even the body cells of <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong> were<br />

uttering 0 hTfeat Lord, 0 hTfeat Lord. One could see with eyes and listen with<br />

ears. Around <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong>, the sun rays ofthe great Lord were being showered.<br />

Mehta Kalu got the sensation ofthe Lord and he started reciting 0 Lord,<br />

o Lord. His mind got an awaken-ness and he recited 0 Lord, 0 Lord. Yes,<br />

Mehta Kalu is today reciting the Lord's name.<br />

Today, he got awaken-ness of mind from <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong>, from the child<br />

<strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong>, the <strong>Nanak</strong> whom he tried to push to worldly desires, the <strong>Nanak</strong><br />

whom he thought has spoiled his prestige and honour ofthe family, whom he<br />

said, was hTiving away household articles, whom he thought was non-earning<br />

and mad, he has now realized that <strong>Nanak</strong> is an image of the Lord.<br />

<strong>Nanak</strong> whom he slapped because he had spent twenty rupees in charity,<br />

today he sees him as the master of heavens and all wealth of the world at his<br />

feet.<br />

Oh World! It is sad that you never understand people on time. Whose<br />

heads you severed in ignorance, for them you made temples later to remember<br />

them. Many times you made a mistake and many times you learnt the lessons<br />

but you never made use of the lessons learnt.<br />

Always, you gave suffering to great men and till today, you never<br />

understood them on time. You have never considered the worth ofthe. worthy<br />

on time.<br />

Today, Mehta Kalu who thought that his son had disgraced the honor of<br />

the family said: He has <strong>com</strong>e as aprophet in this Un-enlightened era (Kalyug). He<br />

has to bless the people.<br />

<strong>Bhai</strong> Gurdas sings the same: To bless the people in this Un-enlightened era<br />

(Kalyug), <strong>Guru</strong>·<strong>Nanak</strong> has <strong>com</strong>e.<br />

Let us also sing: To bless the people in this Un-enlightened era (Kalyug),<br />

<strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong> has <strong>com</strong>e.<br />
