The Art of Ascendancy-Chardi Kala as described in the Sikhism and Interfaith-XIII

When Malik Bhago wanted make show of his wealth, he forced many people to accept his invitation. At that time Shri Guru Nanak Dev Ji was staying with Bhai Lalo Ji, who was very poor but doing what Guru Ji said, that one should earn by self, Kirt Karna (Karna means doing). Guru Ji was invited to come, but he refused.


Malik Bhago used all possible means to force, but Guru Ji refused again. However to teach a lesson to people present there, he went along with Bhai Lalo Ji. Malik Bhago was very angry and furious about Guru Ji’s staying with a poor person, Bhai Lalo Ji. When he kept on asking many questions, Guru Ji asked him to bring the food and asked Bhai Lalo to bring food from his home.


When both of the foods were presented to him, he took one in each hand and pressed it. From poor Bhai Lalo Ji’s food, the milk was poured, but from Malik Bhago’s the blood was pouring. All present over there were astonished. Malik Bhago was humbled and requested Guru Ji to explain what it was. Guru Ji said that Bhai Lalo’s earnings are of Kirt, but his were not from it.


The blood present in the food was of those whom he forced to work for him without paying them what they deserved. Those who deserve and are poor are doing their Kirt and nobody can snatch it. It was a lesson not only for him, but also for all those who were present over there, and for us as well. Mother’s milk is her blood turned into milk, which a child drinks. It is true with all mammals. One’s Kirt is the milk for which one has poured blood and sweat.


Thus, the Kirt is the major part of the Art of Ascendancy, the Chardi Kala, stopping dissipation of our energy with the help of resonance of waves and vibrations with hands joined for prayers. Thanks!
