Jin Bhae Adab Naa Baanee Dharaa | Jaanoh(u) So Sikh Nahee(n) Hamaaraa<br />
||20||<br />
He who has no fear or respect of Gurbani. Know that he is not my Sikh. ||20||<br />
(Sri Gur Partap Suraj Granth, Panna 3344 – 45)<br />
The Seventh King’s highly intelligent Sahibzada, Sri Ram Rai Ji, was graced with the blessing<br />
by Guru Sahib Ji that “We (Guru Sahib Ji) will abide on your tongue and whatever<br />
you say will come true”. And so it did, Ram Rai Ji showed great miracles in the court of<br />
Aurangzeb. Every day 13,000 Rupees would come to Ram Rai Ji’s headquarters courtesy<br />
of Emperor, Aurangzeb. However, when Ram Rai Ji changed the line “Mittee Musalmaan<br />
Kee” to “Baeemaan Kee”, Satguru Har Rai Sahib Ji was extremely offended and disappointed<br />
and told Ram Rai that they did not wish to even see someone who had changed<br />
the Gurbani of the most respected Satguru, (Guru Nanak Dev Ji), and had altered the word<br />
of God. Ram Rai was ordered to continue to walk in whichever direction he was facing and<br />
to never return. It was also ordered that no other Sikh should worship or acknowledge<br />
Ram Rai. In this way he was excommunicated from the house of the Guru.<br />
8. When the Eighth King, Sri Guru Har Krisan Ji, went to Delhi, Emperor Aurangzeb asked<br />
to see them. The True King wrote down the following:<br />
Mahalaa Pehalaa || Kiaa Khaadhai; Kiaa Paidhai Hoe ||<br />
The First Master. What good is food, and what good are clothes<br />
(Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Ang 142)<br />
Guru Sahib Ji sent this to Aurangzeb as a message that the true Darshan of the King of<br />
Kings was within the shabad, which should reside within ones heart.<br />
9. When Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji went to visit Praagraaj Tribeni, at that place Guru<br />
Sahib Ji’s respected Mother, Mata Nanaki Ji, requested to have the Darshan of a Grandson,<br />
Guru Sahib Ji said, “Carry out an Akhand Paath of Dhur Ki Bani; and Waheguru Ji will most<br />
definitely fulfil your request.”<br />
In the Dharam Vijai Shastar, it is written that the Akhand Paath Sahib was conducted from<br />
the Saroop of Sri Guru Granth Sahib (compiled by Bhai Banno Ji) accompanying Guru Sahib<br />
Ji, at ‘Vadee Sikh Sangat Gurdwara’ in Tribeni. In which these five Sikhs were the Paathis<br />
1. Bhai Mati Das Ji<br />
2. Bhai Dayala Ji<br />
3. Bhai Gurbaksh Singh Ji Masand<br />
4. Bhai Gurdita Ji, (who was the 6th descendant in the lineage of Baba Budha Sahib Ji)<br />
5. Bhai Sati Ram Ji, who was a Sikh of the Eighth King<br />
In this way the Ninth King blessed these five Sikhs with the responsibility to carry out the<br />
Akhand Paath for the arrival of Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji. Only after the completion of Dhur<br />
Ki Bani did Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji arrive:<br />
Tehee Prakaas Hamaaraa Bhayo|| Patnaa Sehar Bikhai Bhav Layo||<br />
There (in Allahabad) I was conceived (March 1666 CE). Later, I took birth at Patna (December<br />
1666 CE)<br />
(Sri Dasam Granth Sahib Ji, Ang 59)<br />
10. In Anandpur Sahib the Tenth King, punished a Singh for pronouncing a vowel of Gurmukhi<br />
incorrectly. Guru Ji said, “O’ Singh! You have just broken my limbs!” Subsequently at<br />
Guru Ki Kaanshi, Sri Damdama Sahib, Guru Ji gave the knowledge of correct pronunciation<br />
and meanings of Gurbani. The Chief Poet, Bhai Nand Lal Singh Ji humbly asked Guru Ji,<br />
“Oh Great King, where can we have your blessed Darshan”<br />

The words of Bhai Nand Laal Singh Ji.
