The True Light

[Akaal Purakh Di Fauj]

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

One time as Sant Baba Harnaam Singh Ji was sat down he told his beloved student Sant Baba Nand Singh Ji that he had a great urge to listen to Gurbani and that five simultaneous Sri Akhand Path Sahibs should be organised. Those fortunate souls who have managed to attain a glimpse of the great jeevan of Sant Harnaam Singh Ji will know that Mahapursh was constantly coloured in the love of Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj’s bani.

Sant Nand Singh Ji listened to Sant Harnaam Singh Ji and immediately began to make preparations for the Sri Akhand Path Sahibs.

In this way after performing an ardas to Dhan Dhan Dhan Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj the five simultaneous Sri Akhand Path Sahibs began. One Singh would recite Gurbani loudly and the other four Singhs would recite Gurbani quietly in their throats.

At that time the sangat would use Ghee lamps to provide light in the night for the Singhs performing the Akhand Paat seva. On the first night of the Sri Akhand Paat Sahibs it was very windy and Sant Nand Singh Ji began to worry that the wind may blow out the ghee lamps.

Sant Harnaam Singh Ji and Sant Nand Singh Ji were listening to the Sri Akhand Paat Sahibs when all of a sudden a huge gush of wind came flowing towards Guru Ji’s Thakht extinguishing all the lamps that the Singhs were using.

Upon seeing that the lamps had gone off Sant Nand Singh Ji quickly looked at Sant Harnaam Singh Ji who smiled at him and said, “Nand Singh! Gurbani is the true light do not have any doubts about this!”

Despite these words of Mahapursh Sant Nand Singh Ji began to walk over towards Guru Sahib. As he was doing this he could hear the Sri Akhand Paat Sahib still going on and he thought to himself, “Wah! Dhan are the Sikhs of Guru Sahib who have memorised so much Gurbani”.

However when he looked up towards Guruji he began to see a beautiful blinding golden glow that was coming from Guru Sahib’s saroops.

From this day onwards Sant Nand Singh Ji did not see Guru Sahib as anything other than the living embodiement of Dhan Dhan Dhan Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj.

Dhan Dhan Dhan Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj, the only true light in this very dark world.
