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

Let us share more about it. There is another Sakhi (a story of witness), that once upon a time a Sikh offered flesh from his thigh to the Hawk kept by Tenth Guru Nanak, Shri Guru Gobind Singh Ji. He blessed him. At that moment, a poor Sikh came and offered Guru Ji a damrhda (old Indian rupee).


Guru Ji bestowed so many blessings on him that the other Sikh was very annoyed thinking that he offered his own flesh, but Guru Ji gave more blessings to the other.


Guru Ji knowing what he was thinking asked him, why he was thinking like this. He complained that he had offered his flesh but the other Sikh just a damrhda, how came that Guru Ji has bestowed so many blessings on him. Guru Ji said that his damrhda was of Kirt.


Moreover, the money earned by Kirt is like one flesh from the liver. The Sikh was humbled and understood that to earn by blood and sweat, the Kirt is much more valuable than all that we may ever offer, in other words we have it as the best to offer.
