Katha Gurpertap Suraj Granth Raas 1

After arriving back in Sultanpur, Guru Ji resumes their Modi-khana(store) job and blessing people with immense donations like before. While living at Bebe Nanaki Ji's house for some time, Guru Ji starts to build their own house.

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.

Dhrupad in Raag Bihagra - Bhai Kultar Singh Ji Ragi and Bhai Swaran Singh Ji, at Royal Leamington Spa.

ਰਾਗੁ ਬਿਹਾਗੜਾ ਚਉਪਦੇ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ਘਰੁ ੨ ॥
Raag Bihaagraa, Chau-Padas, Fifth Mehl, Second House:
ਦੂਤਨ ਸੰਗਰੀਆ ॥
To associate with your arch enemies,
ਭੁਇਅੰਗਨਿ ਬਸਰੀਆ ॥
is to live with poisonous snakes;
ਅਨਿਕ ਉਪਰੀਆ ॥੧॥
I have made the effort to shake them off. ||1||

ਤਉ ਮੈ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਕਰੀਆ ॥Then, I repeated the Name of the Lord, Har, Har,
ਤਉ ਸੁਖ ਸਹਜਰੀਆ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
and I obtained celestial peace. ||1||Pause||

ਮਿਥਨ ਮੋਹਰੀਆ ॥
False is the love of,
ਅਨ ਕਉ ਮੇਰੀਆ ॥
many emotional attachments,
ਵਿਚਿ ਘੂਮਨ ਘਿਰੀਆ ॥੨॥
which suck the mortal into the whirlpool of reincarnation. ||2||

ਸਗਲ ਬਟਰੀਆ ॥
All are travelers,
ਬਿਰਖ ਇਕ ਤਰੀਆ ॥
who have gathered under the world-tree,
ਬਹੁ ਬੰਧਹਿ ਪਰੀਆ ॥੩॥
and are bound by their many bonds. ||3||
ਥਿਰੁ ਸਾਧ ਸਫਰੀਆ ॥
Eternal is the Company of the Holy,
ਜਹ ਕੀਰਤਨੁ ਹਰੀਆ ॥
where the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises are sung.
ਨਾਨਕ ਸਰਨਰੀਆ ॥੪॥੧॥
Nanak seeks this Sanctuary. ||4||1||

Furthermore, a story of Baba Ram Koer Ji's encounter with a group of villagers is narrated wherein Baba Ji is invited by the villagers on a funerary ceremony. In that ceremony, Baba Ji is fed with Kheer and Baba Ji being pleased asks what is the occasion? The villagers reply that it is because someone had passed away, Baba Ji immediately says that a person will die every day (so that he will receive the delicious kheer). So it did happen and after a while, the anxious villagers came back to Baba Ji and called him over for a wedding function and served him with Kheer. Being pleased, Baba Ji says that everyday there would be a wedding in this village.

Gurpertap Suraj Granth Ras 1 Chapter 3

This chapter will cover the history when the invaders ransacked Baba Ram Koer Ji's village of Ramdas and looted everything. However, Baba Ji was unaffected but when the looters reached their headquarters in Lahore, their governor who knew about Baba Ji was frightened as he knew that any word which comes out from Baba Ji's mouth turns into reality. So he immediately comes down to Ramdas village and apologises to Baba Ji and asks Baba Ji to list down the items which were stolen so that they are returned. Baba Ji only mentions 3 items which were: a horse, a silk rope and a stand for his falcon. The governor acknowledges them and invites Baba Ji to Lahore. Baba Ji agrees and is brought for a tour of Lahore and upon its completion, Baba Ji asks the governor, "Who will return the looted items if Lahore is ransacked?" Governor is speechless. He later gifts Baba Ji a stubborn horse so that he can test if Baba Ji is indeed miraculous, Baba Ji as usual sat on one side of the horse and without any rein. As Baba Ji rode it, the horse was no longer wild and became tame
