  • Guru Gobind Rai Te Birdh Mata

    Guru Gobind Rai Te Birdh Mata
    Apr 4 2022
    Guru Gobind Rai was born in the city of Patna in the state of Bihar. Gobind Rai; A divine soul sent from the heavens to help this earth. People always noticed that when he played with his friends, even though he was physically stronger, he was always kind to everyone. He was always having fun, joking around and he laughed all the time. And there were so many games he liked to play with his friends. Sometimes he also liked to do mischief. Near his house, there was an old woman who spun yarn and she used a wheel to spin raw cotton into yarn balls. One day Gobind Rai decided to make a little mischief, and he snuck up behind her chair. She couldn’t see him and suddenly he knocked her basket of yarn balls on the ground and ran away. The balls of yarn had taken ages to spin and got all dirty and dusty. So the old woman got really angry with him. She picked up a big stick and waved it wildly in her hand while shouting at Gobind Rai, "I've been working on that basket of yarn all day. How dare you knock it down!" She chased him, thinking she would give him a sound beating with the stick. She yelled, "I don't care who your parents are, I'll teach you some manners! Come here boy!" She almost caught him. But he just ran away faster not letting her catch him. He used to do this prank on her until she got fed up. She went to Gobind Rai’s home and began complaining to Mata Gujri Ji, his mother. She whined, "Your son! He keeps sneaking into my workroom and scattering all my yarn. All I have is that yarn. And he does it all the time. I'm so miserable. He must stop this. I have no peace of mind." Mata Gujri was a kind and wise woman, and she could see the old woman was really in distress. So she gave the woman some clothes and some money, saying, "Here, take these. It's the least I can do for you." The old woman was very poor and she was surprised and touched by Mata Gujri. It was not often she was given clothes and money. Instantly she became very happy and changed her tune, "Well after all he is just a child. Mata Ji, we shouldn't mind if he does a little mischief. It's alright, he can still play with me..." Mata Gujri herself was ever trusting and could never stay mad at her son. She thought, "He is sent by God so I have to accept what he does. He will protect humanity." After the old woman had gone home Gobind Rai came home from playing. He clearly had something on his mind, and he shared it with his mother, "Mata, you know that woman today with the yarn? Well, when I knocked it over it wasn't her yarn that was being destroyed. It was the stains of her soul that were being destroyed. Her poverty had to be taken away. She was poor before, but after knocking over the yarn look how rich she is. It was destiny for you to give her all the nice clothes and money." Everyone who heard this story was amazed that this young boy, not much older than a toddler could say such things. His grandmother knew better though. She thought, "He's a real Guru. He is bringing all the wisdom he brought with him from the heavens." After this, the old woman began visiting the Guru's house more often. She began joining the Sangat for early morning prayers. She joined the company of the saints and her life became very blessed. This is how Gobind Rai helped people. Even when he was annoying or bothering someone, he was actually helping them. Even when he was mischievous, it always turned out better for others. On one hand, this old woman was blessed with wealth on this earth. But she was even more enriched by the blessings of the heavens. Her spirit had been touched by the Guru.

  • Guru Gobind Singh Ji Te Seva Di Mahima

    Guru Gobind Singh Ji Te Seva Di Mahima
    Jan 17 2022
    Once upon a time, Guru Gobind Singh Ji was teaching the Sikhs wonderful lessons about our own hearts. In the Sangam, there came a rich boy who really wanted to serve the Guruji. Of course Guruji, knew what was in the boy’s heart and to test it he asked everyone, “I am thirsty, who can get me water?” And before anyone else could answer, the boy exclaimed “I will!” and left to get the water. Soon enough the boy proudly came back with a glass of water. Guru ji said, “Your hands look soft. What do you do for work?” The boy replied, “My parents have plenty of money, so I don’t need to work. Whenever I want something I ask a servant for it." It’s true that his parents had spoiled him, they never even had him do chores or even clean his room. He led a very soft and easy life while other people did everything for him. Guruji asked, “You never work?” “That's true, you are such an inspiration. You are the first person I’ve even thought of serving! This is the first time I have gotten water for anyone.” Then Guruji continued teaching without drinking the water. Eventually, someone asked, “Guru ji, you asked for water, now you are not drinking. Are you no longer thirsty?” Guruji replied, “I will not drink this water. It is dirty.” The boy did not understand, “True King, I assure you that this water is not dirty. I cleaned the glass myself, then I put in water directly from the well. It is pure!” Guru ji explained, “Your hands have dirtied the water.” The boy was surprised and said, “No Guruji, I cleaned my hands first. I brought it directly to you. There is nothing that could have dirtied the water, it really is pure!” “ Guruji said, “My boy, hands are made pure by doing service. Your hands are dirty.” Then Guru ji spoke to everyone there, “Listen fellow sikhs, if you do not work or serve others, it is like as if you become filled with dirt. If you are filthy who will want to be near you? Your feet are made pure by going to see your Guru. Your hands are made pure by service. It is our lifestyle to serve the Sangat. This is very important!” These words pierced the boy’s heart. He had always been a good boy but he realized he wanted to be more than that. He was no longer comfortable just receiving from others. The boy bowed his head and he made a decision: “From now on I will not just be a taker, I will also give. I won’t just let people serve me like I’m royalty. I will also be a humble servant.” Some time had passed and Guru Ji again saw him in the Sangat. He knowingly smiled, “I am thirsty, who will get me water?” Just like before the boy volunteered right away, “I will bring you water!” Chanting Waheguru, Waheguru, Waheguru, the boy brought the water. Guru ji looked at his hands, which were rough and stained from work. He could see the boy was more humble. He could also see the water was different from last time. It had the vibration of love and service. This was because the boy's heart was shining now. Smiling, Guru ji said, “THIS is pure water!” And Guru ji happily drank the water. The boy felt a connection with Guru Gobind Singh Ji that he hadn’t felt before and his heart filled with more love than ever. We should all work honestly and earn a living. Even the first Guru, Guru Nanak showed us the way to earn our living by farming. As a little child, you should, along with your studies, serve your elders and the needy.

  • Bandi Chhor Diwas (Guru Hargobind Ji)

    Bandi Chhor Diwas (Guru Hargobind Ji)
    Oct 26 2021
    The festival of lights, Diwali, is observed every year to celebrate the victory of good over evil. In Sikhism, this festival is celebrated as the day of liberation and is related to the sixth Guru, Guru Hargobind Ji. In 1609 AD, Guru Hargobind Ji started the construction of Loh Garh fort on the outskirts of the holy city of Amritsar for the safety of the city and its residents. Seeing this and the rising popularity of the Guru, Governor of Amritsar was alarmed and alarmed the then emperor Jehangir. On the advice of Governor and others in his court, the emperor was fearful of the Guru and ordered that he be imprisoned for 40 days at the Gwalior fort. Rather than being a sanctuary of tranquility, Gwalior Fort was really a prison where enemies of the state, including 52 Rajput princes, were detained. True to his nature, Guru Hargobind Ji held daily prayers and the entire atmosphere turned cheerful. All inside the prison were happy, whilst the sangat outside greatly missed Guruji’s presence. At this time, Mian Mir, a noted Sufi saint, traveled to the Emperor’s court and asked him to release the Guru. The emperor’s wife Nur Jahan also insisted that Guruji be released. Guruji, however, could not embrace his own fortune at the expense of the other prisoners and refused to leave the fort until all 52 of the Rajput princes were freed as well. When this was put in front of the Emperor, he initially refused it. But then added a condition of his own: in order to be released from the fort, each prisoner must be holding on to the Guruji’s cloak as he walked out of the prison gates. The Emperor was pleased with himself because he was sure that a mere handful would be able to fulfill this condition. Unbeknownst to him, however, the Guru delighted in this challenge by having his tailor make a special cloak with a very, very long train to which were tightly attached 52 tassels. At the appointed time, the Guru donned the heavy cloak, and his friends laid out the train, which stretched for yards behind him. The 52 princes picked the cloak up and grasped their tassels; 26 on the right and 26 on the left. Walking behind the Guru, careful not to let go, they stepped out into the sunlight and freedom, to the cheers of the Guru’s Sikhs. From this time on, Guru Hargobind was known as Bandi (prison) Chhor (liberator), and the day of liberation is celebrated as Bandi Chhor Divas (day). Sikhs in the holy city of Amritsar and elsewhere in the world, commemorate Bandi Chhor Divas, by lighting hundreds of candles in the evening around the Gurdwara.
