Testing
the Guru
Aurangzeb
heard a lot of good things about Guru Har Krishan Ji from his son and
other people. He wanted to test the Guru to see if he really had powers.
He thought that he could dress up like a saint and meet the guru, so that
way he could break the Guru’s promise to never meet him.
Before
doing this though, he first told Raja Jai Singh to test the Guru. He told
him to have his head wife (head queen) dress up as a maid and see if the
Guru would be able to recognize her.
Raja
Jai Singh went to the Guru and asked him to come and meet his wives. When
the Guru entered the room in the palace, all of the queens were sitting
there. However, the head queen was dressed in a maid uniform and was
sitting with the maids. The Guru Started to walk in the room and meet all
of the queens. He went up to each queen and touched her with a wooden
stick and said, “you are not the head queen.”
The
Guru went through all the queens and then turned towards the maids. The
head queen was hiding among them. The Guru went up to her and said, “You
are the head queen.” The Guru had passed this little test of Aurangzeb.
