[QUOTE="Astroboy, post: 92519, member: 4990"] BHAGAT DHANNA JI In 1416, some 53 years before the parkash of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, Dhanna Ji was born in the Dhuan village near Mumbai to a Jatt family. His parents were very poor farmers. At a very young age, Dhanna Ji was asked to take care of the family's buffaloes. He worked very hard herding the buffaloes daily. Outside the village, there was a temple with [I]murthis[/I] or statues of deities. Villagers used to stop by in the morning to pay respect to the deities and give food and other offerings. However, these were used by the temple's Brahmin priests or [I]pandit[/I] for his own consumption. [B][COLOR=DarkOliveGreen]Almighty's Worship[/COLOR][/B] Everyday, Dhanna Ji used to observe a pandit called Pandit Tirlochan (don't confuse it with Bhagat Trilochan) rendering his prayer services, ringing the bell, bathing the statues of deities and performing various rituals for the villagers who came to pray. One day, Dhanna Ji asked the pandit for an explanation of the rituals, the answer of which, are narrated by Bhai Gurdas Ji in Vaar 10 Pauri 13, as follows:- ਬਾਮ੍ਹਣੁ ਪੂਜੈ ਦੇਵਤੇ ਧੰਨਾ ਗਊ ਚਰਾਵਣਿ ਆਵੈ । baamhanu poojai dayvatay dhannaa gaoo charaavani aavai| A brahman would worship gods (in the form of stone idols) where Dhanna used to graze his cow. [COLOR=red][/COLOR]ਧੰਨੈ ਡਿਠਾ ਚਲਿਤੁ ਏਹੁ ਪੂਛੈ ਬਾਮ੍ਹਣੁ ਆਖਿ ਸੁਣਾਵੈ । dhannai ditdaa chalitu ayhu poochhai baamhanu aakhi sunaavai| On seeing his worship, Dhanna asked the brahman what he was doing. [COLOR=red][/COLOR]ਠਾਕੁਰ ਦੀ ਸੇਵਾ ਕਰੇ ਜੋ ਇਛੈ ਸੋਈ ਫਲੁ ਪਾਵੈ । tdaakur dee sayvaa karay jo ichhai soee dhalu paavai| “Service to the Thakur (God) gives the desired fruit,” replied the brahman. [COLOR=red][/COLOR]ਧੰਨਾ ਕਰਦਾ ਜੋਦੜੀ ਮੈ ਭਿ ਦੇਹ ਇਕ ਜੇ ਤੁਧੁ ਭਾਵੈ । dhannaa karadaa jodarhee mai bhi dayh ik jay tudhu bhaavai| Dhanna requested, “O brahman, if you agree kindly give one to me.” [COLOR=red] [/COLOR]ਪਥਰੁ ਇਕੁ ਲਪੇਟਿ ਕਰਿ ਦੇ ਧੰਨੈ ਨੋ ਗੈਲ ਛੁਡਾਵੈ । padaru iku|apayti kari day dhannai no gail chhudaavai| The brahman rolled a stone, gave it to Dhanna and thus got rid of him. [COLOR=red][/COLOR]ਠਾਕੁਰ ਨੋ ਨ੍ਹਾਵਾਲਿ ਕੈ ਛਾਹਿ ਰੋਟੀ ਲੈ ਭੋਗੁ ਚੜ੍ਹਾਵੈ । tdaakur no nhaavaali kai chhaahi rotee|ai bhogu charhhaavai| Dhanna bathed the Thakur and offered him bread and buttermilk. [COLOR=red][/COLOR]ਹਥਿ ਜੋੜਿ ਮਿਨਤਿ ਕਰੈ ਪੈਰੀ ਪੈ ਪੈ ਬਹੁਤੁ ਮਨਾਵੈ । hadi jorhi minati karai pairee pai pai bahutu manaavai| With folded hands and falling at the feet of the stone he begged for his service to be accepted. [COLOR=red][/COLOR]ਹਉ ਭੀ ਮੁਹੁ ਨ ਜੁਠਾਲਸਾਂ ਤੂ ਰੁਠਾ ਮੈ ਕਿਹੁ ਨ ਸੁਖਾਵੈ । hau bhee muhu n jutdaalasaan too rutdaa mai kihu n sukhaavai| Dhanna said, “I will also not eat because how can I be happy if you are annoyed.” [COLOR=red][/COLOR]ਗੋਸਾਈ ਪਰਤਖਿ ਹੋਇ ਰੋਟੀ ਖਾਹਿ ਛਾਹਿ ਮੁਹਿ ਲਾਵੈ । gosaaee paratakhi hoi rotee khaahi chhaahi muhi|aavai| (Seeing his true and loving devotion) God was forced to appear and eat his bread and buttermilk. [COLOR=red][/COLOR]ਭੋਲਾ ਭਾਉ ਗੋਬਿੰਦੁ ਮਿਲਾਵੈ ॥੧੩॥ bholaa bhaau gobindu milaavai ॥13॥ In fact, innocence like that of Dhanna makes the sight of the Lord available. [/QUOTE]
