Description
At the age of eighteen, Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s father Mehta Kalu Ji was disappointed that Guru ji’s was neither interested in farming nor other worldly work. He thought that perhaps by engaging Guruji in trade would not only be a good profitable profession but will also make him happy. Father Kalu Ji gave Twenty Rupees to Guru ji and said, “Buy some genuine goods which can make us a profit when sold.” Guru Nanak Dev ji along with Bhai Mardana Ji started from Talwandi towards Choohar-khaana to purchase some merchandise. They had hardly gone ten miles when they came across a village, where the saints and other people were thirsty, hungry and sick due to lack of water and an outbreak of disease. Guru Nanak Sahib Ji said that no bargain can be more truly profitable than to feed and help the needy and spent all the money on buying food and clothes for the saints and other people. Upon reaching back to Talwandi, Bhai Mardana Ji went to the village and narrated the whole story to Mehta Kalu Ji. Mehta Kalu was very angry that they had wasted money on feeding, clothing and taking care of needy people and didn’t make any profit. Guru Nanak Dev asked his father not to get angry on him and tried to convince his father that he had not done anything wrong with the money but has done a ‘Sacha Sauda’ (True bargain) in the true sense. At the place where the true bargain took place, stands Gurdwara Sacha Sauda Sahib. In current times, Gurdwara Sacha Sauda is in Pakistan in the city of Farooqabad. https://chimesradio.com  http://onelink.to/8uzr4g  https://www.instagram.com/vrchimesradio/  https://www.facebook.com/chimesradio/  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
