Bhai Rupinder Singh - Friday Evening

Jahangir was mesmerised by the rosary which was in Guru Ji’s hand. The Emperor was amazed to such a priceless rosary. Jahangir requests Guru Ji for just a bead of the rosary. It was at this time, Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji mentions to Jahangir that Guru Arjan Dev Ji’s rosary was a few times more expensive than this one but it is in Chandu’s house who had taken Guru Ji to his house. Guru Ji asks Jahangir to get the rosary from Chandu or just to give you a bead. 
Jahangir who had heard from Mian Mir previously, was convinced that Chandu was a deceitful man. An order was released for Chandu to bring over the bead. Chandu was boastful and says that he will bring an even nicer bead. 
Back at Chandu’s house, Guru Ji’s rosary was found but a rodent had broken the rosary and the beads have been chewed. Not even a single bead had survived unbitten. It was surprising how the rodent managed to enter his vault where the rosary was placed. 
Understanding the situation, he started the search of a bead in various markets and wealthy individuals. However, all he met was just disappointment. 
As it was taking a long time, Jahangir summoned Chandu back to his court.

Chandu did not return back to Jahangir with the rosary. Guru Ji reminded Jahangir that the rosary of Guru Arjan Dev Ji is indeed with him for the past few years. If he cannot present the rosary, he can bring just a bead which you can have. If Chandu brings the entire rosary, Jahangir can have it. 
Jahangir was convinced that Chandu had been lying to him all the time. Jahangir was becoming restless as Chandu was delaying and he summoned him at once. 
Chandu in a hurry left and whilst En route to the fort, he fell but still continued the journey. When asked by Jahangir, Chandu said that he is in pursuit of acquiring the bead and everything went into silence. Guru Ji reminded Jahangir if he wishes to have this judgement in this or the next world? Jahangir immediately pointed at Chandu and called him guilty. Calling it a debt on his head, Jahangir apologised and handed over Chandu to Guru Ji. Chandu who was present, denied the accusations and said that it was Jahangir who had instructed Guru Ji to be kept at his house. However, Guru Ji merged with the formless after becoming ill. Further, it was Jahangir who had imposed a fine of 100,000 rupees which was not collected. 
Jahangir immediately said that it was Chandu who had lied that Guru Ji is employing thieves who had stolen his birth certificate. 
Chandu again says that he was apparently told that Guru Ji had perpetrated the crime and says that it was Jahangir who had invited Guru Ji to Lahore. 
Jahangir became furious and says, “What am I paying you for? To listen to rumours without even confirming the facts? You are very cunning. You will be punished in both the worlds. I am the servant of Guru Ji and indebted to them as they have saved my life.” 
Jahangir looks at Guru Ji and says, “He is guilty. Please punish him as you deem fit. Have mercy on me in both the worlds.” 
Guru Ji says to Bhai Jetha Ji and Bhai Biddhi Chand Ji to apprehend Chandu, the enemy of Guru’s House. He was dragged out of the court, turban removed and hand cuffed. Chandu was treated as a pariah dog and slapped with shoes in-front of all the royals & dignitaries. 
Guru Ji left and told Bhai Jetha Ji to bring Chandu around the Delhi town. Sikhs were given instructions that they are to hit his head 5 times. Sikhs took this golden opportunity and served 5 hits on Chandu’s head with fervour. There were some who were afraid and those cowards had removed their shoes so not to hit Chandu. But the majority, came from near and far upon hearing Guru Ji’s command. 
After travelling through the whole town, they reached Majnu Ka Tilla where Guru Ji had camped.
