the ground, everyone was dumbstruck and amazed. Baba Ji asked them to take their
clothes off and bathe to their hearts content in a fountain over 3 feet tall which
glimmered in the sunlight. Even Sant Tara Singh Ji who was also present could not
resist and bathed in this fountain of pure water. Once everyone had finished Baba Ji
asked the leader of the Saints, “So Saint Ji have completed your bathing? Was it truly
the pure water of the Ganges or just some other water?”
But the all the Saints knew that they had been bless with this opportunity to bath in
the waters of the Ganges as the words of such a complete Saint is always true, and so
overwhelmed with love, tears began to flow from their eyes and in this love they all
fell at the lotus feet of Dhan Baba Karam Singh Ji Maharaj Ji, saying that he was the
saviour of this dark age (Kalyug), with complete power to fulfill the wishes of all and
that his greatness lies outside of all language. Baba Ji with his own hands pushed
down the flow of the Ganges and stopped it from the ground and then covered it with
earth, and said to the water, “Go! Go back and blend with yourself.” And amazingly
there in front of everyone’s eyes the water flow disappeared back into the earth. As
day and night pasted and word spread of this miracle the villagers and devotees talked
and sang Baba Ji’s praises and many came to see the spot were the Ganges was
revealed to the traveling Saints.
Panna 828: Bilaaval, Fifth Mohalla:
I ask for such advice from Your humble servants,
that I may meditate on You, and love You,
and serve You, and become part and parcel of Your Being. ||1||Pause||
I serve His humble servants, and speak with them, and abide with them.
I apply the dust of the feet of His humble servants to my face and forehead; my hopes,
and the many waves of desire, are fulfilled. ||1||
Immaculate and pure are the praises of the humble servants of the Supreme Lord
God; the feet of His humble servants are equal to millions of sacred shrines of
pilgrimage.
Nanak bathes in the dust of the feet of His humble servants; the sinful resides of
countless incarnations have been washed away. ||2||4||120||
All became aware that the praises of such a Beloved Saint were such that not even the
Vedas could describe it. As for those who are one with the Creator and his sweet
name, the 68 places of pilgrimage lie at their feet, those whom listen and sing the ever
pervading Lords name and show compassion on others gain the same spiritual wealth
as bathing at all these 68 places.
Panna 3: Listening to Gurbani-take your cleansing bath at the sixty-eight places of
pilgrimage.
Taking these blessing from Baba Ji and gifts the traveling Saints took leave and made
their way back with its pilgrimage fulfilled.
