Guru Nanak & the Two Villages

Guru Nanak, together with Mardana and Bala, his two friends who always served him, traveled together to the country of Kashmir. They came to the city of Sri Nagar. There the people knew who he was because of his grace and his light. The people were very happy and blessed to sit with him and learn from him. In that city there was also a Pundit named Brahm Das. He was very learned and through his devotion to the goddess he had gained yogic powers. When he heard that a great Guru had come to town he thought, "I don't think I will be that impressed with this new-comer. It is I who has great knowledge and supernatural powers. I will show him my skill. Sitting on this carpet I will fly over to where he is and there is no doubt that he will be totally impressed when I arrive." <a href="https://www.sikhnet.com/stories/audio/guru-nanak-and-flying-carpet" target="_blank">read more</a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/SikhnetChildrensStories/~4/p3OPzgX3nZ0" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>
