Sri Darbaar Sahib- Amritsar

[_anon_]

Does any know where i can find a daily schedule? In particular events occuring from 10:00pm to 7:00am

Also can someone tell me more about Bhagat Puran Singh Jee and the young lad they carried on their back?

I know about the book but i need this information quickly. Any other short anecdotes about Bhagat Puran Singh Jee and Pingalwara would be very useful too. Thanks!

In November 1934, he came upon a four year old boy abandoned near the main gate of Gurudwara Dera Sahib. This boy was dumb, mentally impaired and physically deformed and was suffering from dysentery. Puran Singh looked after him and named him Piara, or the loved one. From that day on they were inseparable for the next 14years. Puran Singh carried Piara on his back and this became symbolic of his carrying all the aged, the infirm, the disabled, the crippled and the sick on his shoulders. It was not easy since the helpless boy's hands and feet were lifeless, and he would constantly drool on Puran Singh.

He carried Piara on his back wherever he went because there was no one to look after Piara. Puran Singh described him as a "Garland Around My Neck". Born in a region, which prides itself on the military prowess of its men, Puran Singh's steadfastness and unflinching courage in adversities- though of a different order -were no less remarkable.
