37. After establishing 129 Schools
• The ruler of Sabo Ki Talwandi (Sri Damdama Sahib), Chaudhary Dalla
became a devout disciple of Guru Gobind Singh
• Once under Divine will, Guru Ji gave a blessing and said, “Look Bhai
Dalla! Canals are flowing here.”, while the area was full of Sand. Today
that prophecy has been realized & canals irrigate the whole region.
• Guru Ji again said, “Look Bhai Dalla! Farms are full of mangoes,
oranges and grapes.”, while there were plants bearing poppy pods
only. This region is now covered with fruit orchards all over.
• Then Guru Ji again blessed for the third time, “Bhai Dalla! Fields
full of wheat crops are flourishing.”, while there were wild bushes
all around. Today fields here are yielding huge wheat crops.
• During the scribing of complete Sri Guru Granth Sahib, as
per Divine order, Guru Ji began sharpening wooden reeds,
and while throwing these into the Sarovar, uttered the fourth
blessing:
• “As Kashi Banaras is the center of learning in ancient India
so shall here emerge, a great center of Divine learning of
Guru Kashi”

38. About realizing Guru Gobind Singh ji’s Bachan
• Saadh SangatJi! Whosoever devotee shares his Dasvandh for 'Akal University Guru ki Kashi' for the
manifestation of the 4th blessing of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, will obtain the blessings of Guru Ji and set out on the
path of salvation.
• This University, which has been approved by the Government, will incur a cost of $ 100 Million & comprise of an
extensive department of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Translation into all the languages of the world. Also producing
Divine scholars, who will spread into all the corners of the world and convey the Inter-Faith message of Guru
Granth Sahib to all. With Gurbani, they will be able to make their earthly existence successful. It is also
endeavored to establish an International Center for Comparative Religious Studies.
• This is a noble cause of Sikh community, in which we all should participate by rendering service with body, mind
and wealth (Tan, Man, Dhan) to obtain Guruji's blessings thereby making our life's journey, a success.
• The Kalgidhar Society, Baru Sahib through your support has successfully setup 129 Akal Academies and
Eternal University (that runs 42 courses). Now we seek whole-hearted support and great response from Saadh
Sangat to manifest the 4th blessing of 'Guru Kashi' for Talwandi Sabo.
• Besides religious courses, 'Akal University Guru ki Kashi' will develop collaborative academic programs with
domestic and foreign universities for new and novel technologies and co-operative programs with local, national
and international industries and develop programs to train manpower to fulfill the needs of Punjab.
• I personally look upon this as my duty to deliver this project for the benefit of mankind. Since this is a
massive project that would cost around $100 million, I would require and plead for the support of all and
one!
• Donors are requested to contribute with bricks, cement, iron bars and money etc. for the construction of various
buildings of Akal University and hence, making their earnings fruitful.
• To obtain Guru ji's blessings, please enroll yourself & inspire others to become monthly members of
