PACHMI PARKASH - Global Sikh Studies

Sachkhand the Lords realm, leaving his vessel for the warmth of the Creators sweet
arms. Dhan Sant Baba Lal Singh Ji Maharaj!
The Ragi’s who had come began singing the Gurus sweet hymns with Baba Ji’s
blessings.
Panna 1000: Maaroo, Fifth Mohalla:
Pride, emotional attachment, greed and corruption are gone; I have not placed
anything else, other than the Lord, within my consciousness.
I have purchased the jewel of the Naam and the Glorious Praises of the Lord; loading
this merchandise, I have set out on my journey. ||1||
The love which the Lord's servant feels for the Lord lasts forever.
In my life, I served my Lord and Master, and as I depart, I keep Him enshrined in my
consciousness. ||1||Pause||
I have not turned my face away from my Lord and Master's Command.
He fills my household with celestial peace and bliss; if He asks me to leave, I leave at
once. ||2||
When I am under the Lord's Command, I find even hunger pleasurable; I know no
difference between sorrow and joy.
Whatever the Command of my Lord and Master is, I bow my forehead and accept it.
||3||
The Lord and Master has become merciful to His servant; He has embellished both
this world and the next.
Blessed is that servant, and fruitful is his birth; O Nanak, he realizes his Lord and
Master. ||4||5||
Army Bands had also arrived as they played their solemn tributes as the disciples
placed the body of Sant Lal Singh Ji on a wooden stretcher then decorated it with
flowers and other gifts. Carrying it on their shoulders they made their way
accompanied with the rest of the congregation singing hymns towards the Hoti camp,
where in an open space they made a platform onto which the body was placed and
after reciting Jap Ji Sahib and completing the final prayer the pyre was lit. And so it
was to be that the vessel that Sant Lal Singh Ji Maharaj was in was returned back into
the five elements. Kirtan Sohila was recited and then everyone returned back to the
Sikh Temple where after completing this task the Guru’s sweet meal was given to all.
In melancholy the devotees returned back to their homes with the sweet name of this
precious soul on their lips and tears of love in their eyes.
Panna 687: My Yatra, my life pilgrimage, has become fruitful, fruitful, fruitful.
My comings and goings have ended, since I met the Holy Saint. ||1||Second

Panna 294: Blessed, blessed, blessed is the coming of that humble being;
by his grace, the whole world is saved.
Dhan Sant Lal Singh Ji Maharaj, A true humble beloved of the ever existing Lord.
