Panna 1205: The land may be prepared in every way, but nothing sprouts without<br />

being planted.<br />

So in this same way our mind has to be first prepared and cleansed so when the gift of<br />

the Lords Name is planted it becomes successful and this is only possible if one does<br />

the congregation of a Complete Saint.<br />

Sitting on the banks of Kalpani, Baba Ji listened carefully to his request and<br />

concluded that he was ready for the true jewel and blessed him with the gift and<br />

instructed him with these instructions saying, “Wake up 2am and after bathing recite<br />

Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj’s pray of Jap Ji Sahib five times and then until<br />

sunrise with full concentration meditate on the Guru’s Mantra, after which go to Guru<br />

Maharaj’s Temple and listen to the singing of his words and then continue to earn a<br />

honest living. Serve others and always speak the truth as those who always speak the<br />

truth are always victorious, now go my child! You have been blessed on such as<br />

auspicious day of the full moon (Pooran Mashi) that the stars are in your favour.”<br />

On that day he had been blessed along with 21 ladies and 33 other men. Baba Ji told<br />

him that he was a very lucky soul and he would always be blessed with the true jewel<br />

and who ever congregated with him would also be blessed. Listening to Baba Ji’s<br />

sweet blessings Bhai Kaka Singh Ji became a true trader in the beloved Lords name.<br />

Panna 377: The Lord's sublime essence permeates the homes of the Sadhu.<br />

By selling his body and mind in exchange for the true wealth of the Lords Name he<br />

did bowed with respect and took leave and returned home. At home he practiced and<br />

practiced with his meditations and in a short time he had become coloured in love and<br />

became a true Saint. He would get up at the ambrosial hours of the early morning and<br />

meditate after which at sun rise he would go to work at his shop earning only what he<br />

needed to run his house expenses and sometimes for days at a time he would<br />

disappear into the Jungle to meditate in the Lords love. Everyone in the village<br />

respected and recognized him as a truthful and spiritual soul.<br />

Panna 136: Those who walk on the Path of Truth shall be praised throughout the<br />

world.<br />

Once on one of the celebrations, Bhai Kaka Singh Ji arrived with a large number of<br />

beloved souls, of whom many were <strong>Sikh</strong>s and some were Pataans. Baba Ji was fully<br />

aware of Bhai Kaka Ji’s spiritual state and that he had earned respects from all creeds<br />

of people through honesty and meditation which in turn made Baba Ji very proud and<br />

pleased. As seeing a plant that was planted by them blossom, was the greatest gift of<br />

all.<br />

As they entered the temple, Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj was beautiful decorated in<br />

pastel colors robes whilst Baba Ji sat on one side near the Ragi singers giving his<br />

presence. With the Gurus words vibrating through the atmosphere the congregation<br />

sat in the Lords sweet lotus feet in complete bliss, as from the heavens a constant rain<br />

of Amrit nectar rained down on to these beloved souls. The devotees entered the<br />

temple, paying their respects to Guru Maharaj Ji and having the beautiful vision of<br />
