Guru Har Krishan Sahib Ji was the eighth of the Sikh
Gurus and known for helping Small
Pox patients at Delhi. He was born in Rupnagar District at Kiratpur Sahib,
Punjab in 1656. Once it was asked to
Guru Sahib that which of his two sons would be the next Guru Guru Har Rai or
Guru Ram Rai .Guru Sahib took a small test of judgment, he told Ram Rai and
Guru Har Rai to insert a needle in the leg of the bed and recite the Gurbaani,
both had done well but the question was who will take the Guru’s Gaddi. When it was asked to the Guru Sahib he
answered both was reciting the true lord’s name but the Guru Gaddi will pass to
Guru Har Rai. When it was asked to Guru Sahib he told needle going inside the bed was symbolic of
softness in the heart of Har
Krishan and Ram Rai was rough from the heart.
Once Sri Har Krishan
Sahib Ji visited Delhi, it was the time when Delhi was suffering from Small
Pox. The King of Delhi pleased to Baba Ji to cure the disease. Baba Ji went to King’s Palace but King’s wife
told how could she believe on? She changed the dress of the Queen and became a
Dasi. Baba Ji told If god chosen you as a Queen then why u became a Servant.
Her eyes filled with tears and she bowed to Guru Har Krishan Sahib. Then, Baba
ji cured the small Pox of the people by taking all the disease on him .Baba ji
Passed away in a very small age of seven. The famous verse “Sri Har krishan
Dhiyaiye jis Dithe Sab Dukh Jaiye” .
