is worthwhile you have successfully crossed the ocean of this world. Even the ones<br />

you keep company of will send fear into the demons of hell, as those who earn and<br />

meditate on the Gurus mantra the demons stay away from.”<br />

Panna 1054: When he hears the Word of the Shabad, he runs far away. He is afraid<br />

that the self-sufficient Dear Lord will kill him. ||7||<br />

On hearing Baba Ji’s beautiful blessings, tears of love ran down his face. He fell on<br />

Baba Ji’s feet and this beloved replied,<br />

Panna 1220: O Dear God, I am wretched and helpless!<br />

So from this day on the devotees began to call him by the name of Mool Raj Rishi and<br />

he became a complete Saint.<br />

Panna 1377: Kabeer, the mortal finds the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, if<br />
