Dhan Sri Guru Gobind Singh Sahib Ji! This month is not only a time of a reflection of all the sacrifices of Guru Ji’s family and his Sikhs but also the coming of Guru Gobind Singh Ji on this earth, known as Prakaash Divas. May we celebrate the Guru and pray Guru Ji is part of our life and we can remain in His Grace.
Bhai Nand Lal Singh Ji writes countless Praises of Guru Gobind Singh Ji. He ends one his poem with: ....
ਬਰ ਦੋ ਆਲਮ ਦਸਤਿ ਗੁਰੂ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਸਿੰਘ
Guu Gobind Singh has his hand of blessings and grace over both the worlds,
ਜੁਮਲਾ ਉਲਵੀ ਪਸਤਿ ਗੁਰੂ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ਸਿੰਘ ॥ ੧੫੬ ॥
All angels and gods are just trivial and inconsequential before Guru Gobind Singh. (156)
