GURU JI LIBERATES!
Once in Moga, Guru Hargobind Sahib's darbar (discourse) was taking place. A large snake came in and very quickly headed towards Guru Sahib Ji. The Sangat became worried that it was going to bite Guruji. As it approached guru sahib's feet, Bidhi Chand said to Guruji, 'Shall I fire an arrow at it and kill it?'
Guru sahib said, 'No let it come'. The snake came up to Guru Sahib's feet and the Sangat watched amazed, as the snake bowed its head towards Guru's feet. As the snake's head touched Guru sahib, it split into two pieces and thousands of ants came out.
The Sangat asked Guru sahib, why that had occurred?
Guruji said, "There was a man who claimed he was able to give people mukti (liberation) and open their dasam dwaar (spiritual gate). He was very spiritually elevated and People used to come to him, as he had thousands of followers but then he died and came back as a snake and all his followers came back as ants. As the snake approached me, it had the following shabad in its mind 'Hao aaaya dooroh chal Kay Mai takee Tao sarnaaee jeeo, Mai asaa rakhee chit Mai, mera sabhoh dukh gaavee jeeo' (I have come so far, seeking the protection of your sanctuary. Within my mind, I place my hopes in you; please, take my pain and suffering away)!
Guru sahib Ji liberated his soul.
Only Guru Sahib can liberate our soul, no human can liberate our soul. Take the good from all, learn from all, respect all equally, seek inspiration from all but don't expect anyone, apart from your own efforts and the blessings of Guru Ji to liberate your soul!
Vaheguroo!
