Guruji gets my Sister Married



               My  mother  had  been  praying  for  years  to  God  to
          come down and help her get her daughter married. She
          always wanted a son-in-law who didn't drink and was
          of a religious bent of mind, just like her. On meeting my
          mother  for  the  first  time,  Guruji  told  her  everything
          about the 'ardaas' that she used to do to Guru Nanak ji
          regarding the marriage of her daughter.

               “Get your elder daughter married.” Guruji told my
          mother  one  day.  At  first  my  mother  just  said  yes  and
          kept quiet. After a few days he again forcefully told her
          “Sukhi aunty, tu roz swere ul h kar rab nu kendi si
          meri beti da vyah karan waste thale utro, hun main
          aaya hoya haan ta tu sundi nai.” - “Sukhi aunty, you

          daughter  married;  now  I'm  here  to  help  you  and  you
          are not listening!” My mother said “Guruji, but I don't
          know where to find a suitable match for her.” “That is
          not your problem.” He said, “The boy and his family will
          be coming tonight to the temple.”

               My  sister's  marriage  was  fixed  with  the  same  boy
          we  saw  that  day.  He  told  my  mother  that  Atley  (my
          brother-in-law)  was  her  son  in  her  previous  birth  and
          that  he  will  be  the  best  choice  for  her  son-in-law.  We
          never  questioned  Guruji's  decision  and  my  sister's
          wedding date was fixed. The day he fixed the wedding
          he even told my mother that he had blessed her with a
