Satguru Nanak Sahib in Village Baba
The village Baba and other villages are situated in the Vales of Temps. It is about midway from Larissa and Mt. Olympus.In one afternoon of 1520,Satguru Nanak Sahib and Bhai Sahib Mardana Ji were holding the Holy Diwan in the Valley. Selim-I and others were attending the diwan.Some robbers were to lay their arms and those were captured by the soldiers of the Turkish Sultan from the valley. Satguru Nanak Sahib ordered Bhai Sahib Mardana Ji to play Raag Sarang on the Rabab(Reboc in Europe).Almighty Satguru has uttered the following Holy lines which Satguru Arjan Sahib has adjusted in Raag Sarang for all of us.The Almighty Satguru has confirmed that---'Slok Mahalla-I 'Ranna Hoeian Bodian Pursh Hoi Sayyaad--'Holy Page 1242-43 of SGGS. In these Holy lines Satguru says that in this period the women have become divines and the mens have become hunters.Humility,self-control, piety have run away from them and they eat the undigestable food. Modesty has left for her home and rising up, honour too has gone with her.Nanak, the Lord alone is True. Search thou not for another true one. The respect for human values have gone some where.Every one is not doing its job allotted by the Almighduty of the King or Sultan is to do the security of the public. The Almighty Satguru has addressed to Selim-I who was the Turkish Sultan and was present in the congregation that his
men failed to do the allotted security ob the entire villages of the valley rather they looted the respect of the villagers. They forced some villagers to take to arms against the so-called the securitymen.The Almighty Satguru has furthered told the Sultan --'Salok Mahalla-I-'Kali Hoi Kute Muhi Khaj Hoa Murdar--'Holy Page 1242 of SGGS. In these Holy Lines the Satguru confirms that-In this age of darkness, men have faces like dogs and carrion is their food.They bark as they utter, utter falsehood and they are rid of the thought of piety.They who possess no honour while alive, shall have an evil repute after death(The life hereafter). What is destined,takes place, O Nanak and what the creator does, that alone comes to pass.He further advise the Sultan --'Mahalla-I-'Nanak Chulian Suchian Je Bhar Jane Koi--Raje Chuli Niav Ki Pariha Sach Dhian----'Holy Page 1240 of SGGS.Nanak pure is the mouthful of water, if some one fully knows how to gargle it.For the man of wisdom of ty God.But the prime mouthful is of the gnosis and for the yogi of chastity.For the Brahmin, the mouthful is of contentment and for the house-holder of truth and charity.For the King the mouthful is of justice and for the learned man of the true reflection.With water, the mind is washed not, but by drinking it with mouth, one's thirst is quenched. The water is the birth-giver of the creation and ultimately the water destroys it all.Selim-I made sure the security of the public and released those Priests(Kafir meaning the non believer of God) by the whole villagers are called now Khuda- Prasat Pirs by the same villages in the valley.When they do simran they say Agia Fouse(Illahi Noor or Waheguru in Greek Language). Earlier Satguru Nanak Sahib and Bhai Sahib Mardana Ji used to be called as Pagan Priests.
