Baba Ji’s food had already been prepared by the devotees of Jahangire, as the<br />

devotees of this area had already come to accompany them on to their village. Baba Ji<br />

sat into their throne and with the devotees from Jahangire, took leave, leaving many<br />

of the Toderu residents with tears in their eyes as this Beloved of Gods went on to<br />

save other souls from this ocean we called the world.<br />

Panna 96: Your Face is so Beautiful, and the Sound of Your Words imparts intuitive<br />

wisdom.<br />

Leaving the tears of one village, Baba Ji again was greeted with love and joy of<br />

another. As with drums and bands in a beautiful procession they were carried to<br />

Jahangire Nagar. Entering through a grandly decorated gate to an array of colors<br />

which decorated all the streets and houses. On nearing the <strong>Sikh</strong> Temple of this area,<br />

Baba Ji got out of their throne and walked by foot with devotees singing the Gurus<br />

hymns.<br />

Washing their feet and hands, Baba Ji made their way in to the temple and with love<br />

and devotion paid their respects in Guru Maharaj’s presence. They again placed a gift<br />

of twenty five rupees and fruit, in front of Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj and<br />

then taking Guru Ji’s word, went and sat down with the rest of the congregation. As<br />

the singing of the Lords words echoed through the atmosphere of the temple Guru<br />

Nanak Ji’s free kitchen was also being served to hungry and the poor. When this day<br />

came to an end Baba Ji’s meal awaited them at Bhai Pishora Singh’s house who Baba<br />

Ji had blessed with a child previously, but Baba Ji had yet to complete the task of<br />

naming the child, which on this occasion they did.<br />

This night was spent at Jahangire, after which they prepared to make their way back<br />

to Saidu in the morning. On leaving Baba Ji again blessed the devotees of this area<br />

with many sweet words, after which they escorted Baba Ji in a procession back to<br />

Saidu, then further back to Hoti. And so ended the first Saidu Temple gathering, in<br />

memory of Dhan Baba Karam Singh Ji Maharaj<br />
