Guru Sahib said "If you want to see a picture/painting of me then look at it within your mind"

Look at the picture of Gurujis handprint in a picture of PanjaSahib. We only have a left thumb on our left hand, vice versa.

There the picture shows you, so to find the answer was to take a peek at a pic. The thumb shows you the exact hand.

Guru Nanak along with Bhai Mardana reached Hasan Abdal in Baisakh Samwat 1578 B.K. corresponding to 1521 A.D. in the summer season. Under a shady cool tree, Guru Nanak and Bhai Mardana started reciting Kirtan and their devotees gathered around. This annoyed Wali Qandhari but he was helpless.

According to legend, Bhai Mardana was sent three times to Wali Qandhari so that he would provide him with some water to quench his thirst. Wali Qandhari refused his request and was rude to him. In spite of this, Mardana still very politely stuck to his demand. The Wali ironically remarked : Why don't you ask your Master whom you serve?

Mardana went back to the Guru in a miserable state and said "Oh lord ! I prefer death to thirst but will not approach Wali the egoist."

The Guru replied " Oh Bhai Mardana ! Repeat the Name of God, the Almighty; and drink the water to your heart's content."

The Guru put aside a big rock lying nearby and a pure fountain of water sprang up and began to flow endlessly. Bhai Mardana quenched his thirst and felt grateful to the Guru.

On the other hand, the fountain of Wali Qandhari dried up. On witnessing this, the Wali in his rage threw a part of a mountain towards the Guru from the top of the hill. The Guru stopped the hurled rock with his hand leaving his hand print in the rock.

Observing that miracle, Wali became the Guru's devotee.

This holy and revered place is now known as Panja Sahib.

:D

A Pakistani guy from the area shot a video and put it on Youtube. It's really good - he went up the mountain to Walli Qandhari's 'jugga' - he became famous as a Faqir after the encounter with Guru Ji and some Muslims still take care of the place he lived in.

The mountin faces Punja Sahib and you can imagine the rock rolling down towards Guru Ji.

The rock is still there, as is the spring, which is the main source of water for the town that developed there.
