Autobiography bhai rama singh ji

Prayer of the Parents

(A) Bhai Prabhjot Singh in America is a doctor. We stayed at his house when we went to America. His father told me, "Together with his studies, he also became interested in Kirtan. He was very good in his studies and always did well in his studies. We always prayed to Guru Ji to save him from bad company. I would say Ardaas to Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, "O’ True King, I am only the worldly father, you are the True Father. Save him from the ill wind of Kalyug. Do not distance this child from the Sikhi maryada (way of life). He should not be affected by bad company; let him be saved from such company." He always used to do NitNem from childhood. Now Guru Ji bestowed on him the gift of Amrit. He started doing Kirtan. His wife also performs melodious Kirtan. They both go to other countries to do sewa. The younger son is also devoted to Guru Ghar (Guru's House or Gurdwara). He has qualified as an engineer with Guru Ji's blessing.

(B) The Sikh nation has produced countless diamonds. The nation has produced highly qualified doctors, engineers, lawyers and generals. Amongst these is Dr. Jaspal Singh Kooner, a heart specialist. When I was very ill he treated me. I was very pleased when I saw him with his Sikh identity. There were eight students with him. He asked them to check me by turns and to let him know their diagnosis. I was very pleased to see how this Gursikh was representing the Sikh religion to others through his own Gursikh identity and the respect that he earned. I was delighted that there are such diamonds in the Sikh nation.

One day I went to deposit the donations from the morning simran and Dr Kooner's father was sitting there. I asked him if his son was Dr Kooner. He confirmed. I said, "Your son has spread the good name of the Sikh community."

His father told me, "When we lived in East Africa, he was very good in his studies. The head master made him the class monitor. On arriving in England he worked hard day and night and became a heart specialist. He managed to get employed in a reputable hospital. We advised him that he would not get much income from service and that he should open his own private practice. On hearing this he said, "I am keen to serve people; if I open a private surgery then only the rich would come there and that will not satisfy my desire to serve."

His father said, "He regards all as equal no matter which religion one belongs."

I said, "This is a great community service. Your son is highly skilled and there is talk of his skill in every home. I have heard many say that if someone gets ill, that person should get checked by Dr. Kooner."

"Those who walk on the Path of Truth shall be praised throughout the world."

(C) "O son, this is your mother's hope and prayer, that you may never forget the Lord, Har, Har, even for an instant. May you ever vibrate upon the Lord of the Universe." (SGGS p. 496)

Bhai Harminder Singh does the sewa of the tabla (drums which keep beat with Gurbani Kirtan) every Sunday morning. For two or three weeks he did not attend Gurdwara and I was asked by
