Baba Kalu Ji tells Pandit Hardyal Ji to name their child. After 13 days of birth, Pandit Ji names Baba Kalu Ji's son 'Nanak'. Baba Kalu Ji is surprised by the name, in that it doesn't sound like a Hindu or Muslim name and disagrees at first to it.

Sri Nanak Prakash is a detailed historical account of the life of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. It was written by Mahakavi (great poet) Bhai Santokh Singh Ji in 1824 (AD), and represents one of the most comprehensive and beautifully written accounts of Guru Ji’s life. It is usually associated as a part of the greater text known as Sri Gurpartap Suraj Granth (aka Suraj Prakash) which details the historical accounts of all 10 Guru Sahibs in poetic form. It is an ocean of bliss, knowledge and experience. It is said that if one listen to the history of the lives of all 10 Gurus through these texts with complete devotion and faith, they can reach enlightenment.
