Meeting Mai Anati
There were a group of pious ladies living in a village and when news came that even false and extraential (waikari) women were turned into devitas (Good valued Goddesses and Angels, those giving peace to people) by Baba ji they wanted to do his darshan. They bought donations and Baba Ji greeted them give his blessings and asked them to sit.
One lady from the group was Mai Anati who read lot's of dharmic texts and had great standing in her group. He asked questions that left everyone amazed and energied. She continued to do darshan and listen to Baba ji's updesh.
She had some relics from Hazoor Sahib including Sharda Puran gutka and some shasters which Baba Ji wanted however she did not want to give them up either and Baba ji also wanted them so Baba Ji told her that he called out to her as a mother and she treated him like a mother so she should live with him so her and her son, Charat Singh also moved with and began to stay with Baba Ji
Telling Sirdar Sudha Singh to tyag his Elephant
Baba ji travelling from Patiala to Sanai (ਸਾਨੇ) and met with a man who had come to meet Baba ji on an elephant.
Baba ji taught him that the elephant in his previous life was your worker whom he punished too harshly and got killed for him stealing so he then now wanted badla. Upon more exchange Sudha Singh got to know that he got killed giving his life to Patshah 10 so now he got Sirdari in this life, he was in his previous life one of the 40 muktai (40 liberated ones) who gave bidwa (resignation) to the Guru but under Mai Bhago returned.
After this encounter Baba ji travelled to Kulgam to take care of his land there, just after a few days of arriving he heard news that Sirdar Sudha Singh was killed by his elephant. Baba ji then returned to Una Sahib.
So this lesson teaches us to obey hukam of mahapurkhs even if we may not understand them sometimes there are deep secrets too and sometimes things are expressed a little differently but eventually the meaning comes out if you continue to obey them even the points you might not understand at the time so take head to the words of saints who practice gurmat / dharm in their life.
