Panna 143: their children may bring them back together in the world, and the bond is<br />
established.<br />
In this world without the sweet tasting fruit of a son all riches and wealth feel tasteless<br />
even though from a Saint one should only ask for the one true gift of the Lords name<br />
and spiritual knowledge.<br />
Panna 283: This merchandise, which you have come to obtain - the Lord's Name is<br />
obtained in the home of the Saints.<br />
But Maharaj we are worldly people, because of which we also have wishes for one<br />
thing or another and these things that a <strong>Sikh</strong> needs he should ask from the true giver<br />
of gifts.”<br />
Panna 610: Without the Saints, there are no other givers.<br />
Captain Jawala Singh Ji continued on by saying, “So Maharaj Ji, please have<br />
compassion on us and protect our honour as we have come to your door.” In this way<br />
the Subedar Rajput also made a request saying, “Giver of all! I am getting old and<br />
there’s only a short time before I get my pension, but in the darkness of my home<br />
there is no child to give it light to the extent where my home feels frightening. O<br />
King! Have pity on us poor men of yours please bless us with this gift.”<br />
Baba Karam Singh Ji Maharaj listened to their hearts cries and replied saying, “Have<br />
faith in Guru’s house, help the needy and recite the Guru’s prayers and Guru Nanak Ji<br />
Maharaj will shower compassion upon you, as he is the true giver of all gifts.”<br />
Panna 116: The True Guru is the Giver of all things; through perfect destiny, He is<br />
met. ||2||<br />
In this way Baba Ji told the Rajput to keep faith on the ever pervading Lord and<br />
remember his name and that every week he should gather little children together,<br />
giving them sweets and that Guru Ji would also fulfill his wish blessing him with a<br />
son. Listening to these sweet words of wisdom from Baba Ji’s pure lips both the<br />
Captain and Subedar felt at peace. So thanking and paying their respects they took<br />
leave returning to their homes.<br />
This blessing was fulfilled as after a year, they both were blessed with sons and they<br />
took them to Baba Ji to be blessed. And so with never ending praise for Baba Ji they<br />
spent the rest of their lives as faithful devotees of Dhan Baba Karam Singh Ji<br />
Maharaj.<br />
Vision of Hukumnama<br />
One afternoon Sant Baba Karam Singh Ji Maharaj had just finished bathing and sat<br />
down near his hut on the riverbanks.<br />
Because of it being a Sunday everything such as schools and offices etc were closed<br />
so all devotees, Soldiers, villagers and other spiritual souls from nearing villages had<br />
