Guru Angad Dev Ji had chosen Baba Amar Das Ji as his successor. This was no ordinary transition; it was a divine appointment, a testament to unwavering faith, selfless service, and divine grace.

But not all accepted this divine will, not everyone was happy with Guru Angad Ji’s choice.

Some say this was the final test before Guru Amardas Ji was chosen as Guru. But I believe, It was not a test—it was a moment where his humility, love, and unwavering commitment shone brighter than ever before. It was the moment that proved that true greatness is not achieved in an instant—it is built over years of selfless dedication.

Baba Amar Das Ji did not become great because of one moment—he was great because of everything he had done leading up to it...

While creating this podcast, I’ve come to understand that I’m not just sharing stories with you; I’m also on a journey of self-discovery. Each story reveals something about the vices we all carry—like ego, pride, or impatience. And with every episode, there’s a new opportunity for all of us to grow, reflect, and improve together. But as we’ll learn today, even the most devoted service can lose its essence when stained by ego. So, let’s dive in!
