GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II
Then Mehta Kalu said: Today is the ancestor's day. This is feasting for
the benefit of ancestors. On listening to this, the Guru smiled and said: The
ancestors have already got salvation. What is the point to think about them?
Mehta Kalu was astonished and he said: You mean, our ancestors have
already got salvation. Do you know it for certain?
Guru: Yes, I know it for certain.
Mehta Kalu: Can I see them?
Guru Nanak: Lord willing.
Mehta Kalu: Then show me.
Guru Nanak: Close your eyes and meditate on Name.
Mehta Kalu now closed his eyes and sat in meditation of Name. What he
saw was a little darkness and a little restlessness. There was a voice of gloom,
Oh ho, Oh ho. Then this darkness went away. There was brightness. It was
not a dazzle that would be pinching to the eyes. There was a soft milky shade
in it. Then the brightness went on increasing but the power of the eyes to see
in that brightness also increased. Finally, a place came where it was very
bright and it was wavy like waves in a sea.
Mehta Kalu had never witnessed such brightness even in his dreams.
There, he saw his father who was in a wondrous dress. There were no bodies
and no clothes but the fih'Ures were visible in subtle wondrous and beautiful
dresses. The dresses were not like the clothes here but were some heavenly
dresses that were signs of respect.
MehtaKalu saw his father in a beautiful dress, then he saw his h'Tandfather,
and then other ancestors.
Mehta Kalu asked: What place is this?
They said: This is a very sacred place of ecstasy.
Mehta Kalu: How have you come here?
They said: Since the time, the prophet of the world came to your house,
we have been picked up from wherever we were and brought here and we
are living in ecstasy. But it is sad that being attracted to sentiments you did not
understand him. Then it is thanks to him that he did not mind whatever you
thought of him and he has blessed you with the Lord's name. Don't consider
him your son. See him as the image of the Lord.
l\,fehta Kalu bowed his head and said: It is true. Yes, 0 ancestors, this
place is rapturous. You keep me here. I don't wish to go back.
They said: You have come here by the h'Tace of the Guru. You have still
time to live in the seen world. This is a place where it is always brightness.
That is a place of darkness. You will come here when the time comes if you
love the saviour.
