"they used to be hit whilst doing bani i have seen the bruises it was not pretty."
Kam are you sure about that, I've never heard about that before.
Babaji has been to T.O before, I think it was in 1998. It was amazing keertan, like I've never heard before. It was like if I had a question in my mind, it was being answered in the diwan. I'll write down some stuff that I know:
There was a guy from a nearby village that walked by Dhakki Sahib in the early morning and saw babaji sitting in meditation with frost all over their face. Another thing that used to happen was at night, the trees would turn into snakes that had fire coming out of their mouths. Earlier on, there was a guy that tried to do meditation there, but later on in the day, some villagers seen the guy running out of Dhakki Sahib with a log burning on fire floating behind him.
Babaji came to Dhakki Sahib under God's command.
If anyone tried to take wood out of there, they would go blind until they put the wood back, but if a poor person needed to take some wood out of the forest, they could take as much as they needed. There was this guy, while he was taking some wood, seen a Singh on a horse in all white clothes. The Singh told him, take as much wood as you need, but dont take extra. When the guy turned around, the Singh disappeared.
They had akhand jaap of gurbani going on there until Badal had the dera attacked. Badal warned babaji if they didn't go to his stage at Anandpur in 1999, they would be sorry. Babaji went to the stage of Akal Takhat and didn't listen to badal's order.
Another blessed mahapurkh, Sant Balwant Singh, Siorhey Waley, who are currently living in Punjab. They have revealed many historical gurdhwareys under Guru's command. They did a diwan at Dhakki Sahib before babaji came there. They said that a pooran brahmgiani would come here, and that right now he is a young kid.
