    Vahiguru created everything, and Vahiguru is all around us. Thank you all for joining us throughout this glowing journey we've all had with one another. It has been a pleasure sharing the sakhis of Guru Nanak Sahib. In this final podcast, we will get to hear a sakhi centering around Guru ji's important decision: who will be the next Guru?

    The next sakhi takes us to Mecca in Saudi Arabia. Around the year 1525, Guru ji and Bhai Mardana arrived in Mecca. Guru ji's interaction with the qazi (a Muslim scholar) was very shaky at first because the qazi thought Guru ji was disrespectful. The qazi felt that Guru ji should not be pointing his feet towards the Kaa'ba. To the qazi, Vahiguru existed only in Kaa'ba. Guru ji tuned into this and made it a point to educate the qazi that Vahiguru is all around us. Vahiguru created everything and exists within every heart. It's important to see what the meaning of such truly is. Listen to this podcast to enlighten your mind about Vahiguru. ~~~ Featuring: Inni Kaur #Nanakshahi550 #Children #KidsCast #SikhPodcast #Podcast #Sojhi --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-sikh-cast-sikhri/support Book: Sakhi Time with Nani ji Author: Inni Kaur Editor: Mallika Kaur Translator: Balbir Madhopuri English Narrator: Inni Kaur Panjabi Narrator: Arpinder Kaur

    This podcast brings us to Haridwar, a town that lies on the banks of the Ganges river. Guru ji challenges the thinking of the men whom he meets at the river. They explore the idea of sending love to the ancestors by providing them with resources, in this case being water. But Guru ji posits that we need to embrace our love for our loved ones that are alive today rather than focusing on those that have left this world. The eye-opening discussion is absolutely worth listening to because it broadens your mindset on how we engage as human beings and how we express our compassion and love for one another. ~~~ Featuring: Inni Kaur #Nanakshahi550 #Children #KidsCast #SikhPodcast #Podcast #Sojhi --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-sikh-cast-sikhri/support Book: Sakhi Time with Nani ji Author: Inni Kaur Editor: Mallika Kaur Translator: Balbir Madhopuri English Narrator: Inni Kaur Panjabi Narrator: Arpinder Kaur

    Our next podcast takes place in Tulamba, focusing on a man named Sajjan and an inn he ran for travelers to stay overnight. Over time, Sajjan began engaging in a very unhealthy habit, which negatively affected travelers. He was stealing personal items from the rooms where the travelers were staying. What started as a means of keeping things left behind when the travelers left quickly turned into him going right into their rooms and stealing it while staying at the inn. Guru ji and Bhai Mardana decided to stay at Sajjan's inn while traveling through Tulamba. Sajjan was thrilled, mostly because he had this sense that Guru ji was wealthy. His goal was to rob Guru ji.

    In this episode, we delve into Malik Bhago, a very wealthy and powerful man who held a feast for the gods and goddesses to seek their blessings. Guru ji was the only one who refused his invitation. It was infuriating to Malik Bhago that someone would decline an invitation to a feast; he wanted every holy man's blessing. But the reason was simple: we are all children of Vahiguru, and there is not one person that is higher or more important than the other. Guru ji knew who Malik Bhago really was? Listen to find out what Guru ji knew about the feast and how Malik Bhago reacted afterward. ~~~ Featuring: Inni Kaur #Nanakshahi550 #Children #KidsCast #SikhPodcast #Podcast #Sojhi --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/the-sikh-cast-sikhri/support Book: Sakhi Time with Nani ji Author: Inni Kaur Editor: Mallika Kaur Translator: Balbir Madhopuri English Narrator: Inni Kaur Panjabi Narrator: Arpinder Kaur

He spent his days watching the birds and the trees and talking with all the holy men who came to the village. He had so many questions about life. Pita ji was not pleased with his constant questioning, so he sent Guru ji to the village school. Pandit Gopal Dass, the school teacher, noted that Guru ji was quite a fast learner.
