Blessed Souls
A day with Satjivan Singh Khalsa & Bibi Jasbir Kaur Khalsa Jawadi Waley
A beautiful morning and a wonderful starting of the day, I couldn’t ask anything better on Sunday. The camp ending ceremony started, there was so much shining on the faces of little children and of course an excitement because they had to present what ever they learned in the whole week during the Camp. Two most stars of the camp were, Bhai Jatinder pal Singh ji from Delhi and the name which I don’t think I need to give any introduction was , “Bibi Jasbir Kaur Khalsa” Jawadi Kala, Ludhiana waley. These two blessed souls had furnish the knowledge of little childrens and taught them more about Sikhi, the way of living through Gurbani and how to keep their love ones happy. In the earlier camps, around 4 little kids stopped cutting their and started to wear patka/turban without any outer pressure because now they were enlighten through knowledge and knew the what it takes to be a Sikh, and what is the real meaning of turban is. This year yet another child promised not to cut his hair ever again. So the event started, there were 60 participants in the camp with a different age group starting from 2 yrs to 22 yrs. They learned to do shabads in just one week without any prior knowledge of “Sur and Taal”. Apart from that all of them gave a few minutes speech regards to what they think about Ardaas and their camp reflection. As they finished their speeches suddenly some one arrived and everyone started looking at Him. He was none other then a blessed soul, “Bhai Satjivan Singh Ji Khalsa” As he took matha, I could hear the vibration through the Jaikara, ,” Boley Sonihaal, Sat Sri Akaal” Bhai Sahib was there to address the newly graduated students thou he had no idea of the children camp. So, as he came on the stage he looked very simple, beautiful and awesome individual. He gave his background about being a spoiled child in the early age of his life. The day he found “Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji”, his life was changed. I remember his words, as he went to Hemkunt Sahib couple of years ago and from going towards Gobind Dhaam he just sat in the middle because he couldn’t walk then he left everything on Waheguru and with every step he took all he said, “Waheguru”. He was making us think that if we do not use our own minds and leave it to “Waheguru”, Waheguru will take care of everything by Himself. But often we tend to use our own minds and then feel sorry later on. So, then he distribute prizes to the newly graduated students. I could see that he was so humble person. When replying to Jaikara’s, his voice was the loudest one in saying, “Sat Sri Akaal”. What so funny was he even stood up to fix the microphone when Bibi Jasbir Kaur ji Khalsa had to address the children? I mean look at the blessed soul, He’s a best lawyer and yet so humble. What difference in these kinds of souls and us is that we just say from our mouth that SGGS is our guru and we don’t feel by heart? And these blessed souls accepted it from their hearts. So now it was a langar time, and I was going downstairs to the langar hall and He and bibi ji approached near me, and he said “You are one of the graduates too rite?” I replied yes. He was like good so what your plan is now; I replied I got a good job in IT. He said, “That is wonderful”. We talked for sometime and I really felt honored by meeting these few blessed souls which doesn’t happen quiet often.
