[Dharma Singing: A diamond’s worth
one and a quarter lakh.]

00:02:24.604 --> 00:02:25.813 align:center
Brother Dharma...

00:02:27.313 --> 00:02:29.188 align:center
I have tied up all
the animals inside.

00:02:30.396 --> 00:02:31.771 align:center
Man, it's so cold today...

00:02:32.396 --> 00:02:33.854 align:center
don't you feel cold?

00:02:33.938 --> 00:02:36.021 align:center
Want me to warm you up?
- No, no.

00:02:36.646 --> 00:02:37.688 align:center
Brother Dharma,

00:02:37.813 --> 00:02:40.104 align:center
that tune you were
humming before I arrived...

00:02:40.146 --> 00:02:41.813 align:center
Sing that for me.

00:02:41.938 --> 00:02:47.354 align:center
"A diamond's worth
one and a quarter lakh."

00:02:47.521 --> 00:02:51.813 align:center
"A Jatt’s life is hard,
but God preserves his honor."

00:02:52.104 --> 00:02:56.271 align:center
"A Jatt’s life is hard,
but God preserves his honor."

00:02:56.313 --> 00:02:57.354 align:center
Come have some roti.

00:02:57.479 --> 00:02:58.896 align:center
I made wheat rotis today.

00:02:58.938 --> 00:03:02.021 align:center
"A handsome rooster
sits on the rooftop!"

00:03:02.646 --> 00:03:04.271 align:center
"A handsome rooster
sits on the rooftop!"

00:03:04.396 --> 00:03:05.396 align:center
Brother Dharma.

00:03:06.104 --> 00:03:07.104 align:center
What happened?

00:03:07.146 --> 00:03:08.896 align:center
What?
- Wasn't that rooster white?

00:03:09.104 --> 00:03:10.021 align:center
Oh, was it?

00:03:10.104 --> 00:03:12.438 align:center
Yes, it was white.
- All right, I'll make it white.

00:03:12.521 --> 00:03:15.438 align:center
"A white rooster sits on the rooftop"...

00:03:15.813 --> 00:03:20.063 align:center
"Girl with those pretty teeth,
I'm crazy about you."

00:03:20.313 --> 00:03:23.396 align:center
"Girl with those pretty teeth,
I'm crazy about you."

00:03:23.438 --> 00:03:24.479 align:center
Taaro! - [Background: Taaro said,"Yeah?]

00:03:25.313 --> 00:03:26.646 align:center
Amazing, brother.

00:03:26.729 --> 00:03:28.104 align:center
Gaama.
- Yes.

00:03:28.146 --> 00:03:30.604 align:center
I consider you my brother. - [Women talking in the background]

00:03:31.521 --> 00:03:33.188 align:center
Yes, you do.
- But you never

00:03:34.104 --> 00:03:35.563 align:center
listen to me on this one thing.

00:03:36.188 --> 00:03:37.521 align:center
No, bro, I just can't.

00:03:37.813 --> 00:03:38.813 align:center
Brother

00:03:39.813 --> 00:03:41.313 align:center
I promise you one thing...

00:03:42.021 --> 00:03:43.688 align:center
The day Kesar gets married...

00:03:44.104 --> 00:03:45.896 align:center
I will
drink more than you.

00:03:46.313 --> 00:03:47.146 align:center
Really?
- Yes.

00:03:47.604 --> 00:03:47.854 align:center
Alright.

00:03:47.938 --> 00:03:49.854 align:center
You are a really good singer.

00:03:50.021 --> 00:03:51.604 align:center
Really?
- I mean it.

00:03:52.146 --> 00:03:54.688 align:center
Dharma, your mother is here. Look, she’s over there.

00:03:54.729 --> 00:03:56.063 align:center
Hide that drink!

00:03:56.313 --> 00:03:57.688 align:center
I see everything.

00:03:58.229 --> 00:04:00.146 align:center
Gaama, you should be the
one talking sense into him.

00:04:00.229 --> 00:04:02.854 align:center
Aunty, what should I say? He wants me
to have a drink with him too.

00:04:02.896 --> 00:04:05.479 align:center
Idiots, eat something that is
actually meant to be eaten.

00:04:05.604 --> 00:04:07.063 align:center
The food is getting cold. - Ok.

00:04:07.229 --> 00:04:08.396 align:center
And get up from there...

00:04:08.729 --> 00:04:10.063 align:center
Something might bite you.

00:04:10.229 --> 00:04:11.271 align:center
We're coming.

00:04:11.438 --> 00:04:12.896 align:center
Can I have one more drink?

00:04:13.313 --> 00:04:15.646 align:center
That's enough for now.
Don’t get drunk. - Just one more.

00:04:15.729 --> 00:04:17.979 align:center
That’s enough. - Dharma, come here.
Can't you hear me?

00:04:18.021 --> 00:04:20.146 align:center
That's enough, put it down. You
keep on drinking. Let's go.

00:04:20.229 --> 00:04:21.438 align:center
Come on, drink your milk.

00:04:21.521 --> 00:04:23.396 align:center
But I’m the one who drinks milk.
You can’t even drink it!

00:04:23.438 --> 00:04:24.771 align:center
Kesar, be quiet and drink it.

00:04:24.896 --> 00:04:26.688 align:center
You didn’t drink your milk again today?

00:04:26.938 --> 00:04:27.979 align:center
Kesar, shh!

00:04:28.229 --> 00:04:30.063 align:center
Make it a habit to drink milk, dear.

00:04:30.396 --> 00:04:33.313 align:center
Your mother-in-law will have you working all day.

00:04:34.104 --> 00:04:35.188 align:center
So what, grandma?

00:04:35.896 --> 00:04:38.604 align:center
My brother Kesar will always be the
one bringing gifts for me anyway.

00:04:38.729 --> 00:04:39.688 align:center
Of course.

00:04:40.104 --> 00:04:41.771 align:center
Will you take gifts for her?
- Hmm!

00:04:43.021 --> 00:04:44.021 align:center
- Come on, finish your milk. - Now do one thing...

00:04:44.604 --> 00:04:46.354 align:center
Drink your milk and go to sleep.

00:04:46.521 --> 00:04:48.188 align:center
Hmm.
- Don't keep talking.

00:04:48.229 --> 00:04:49.646 align:center
Okay, grandma.
- Go to sleep.

00:04:52.021 --> 00:04:53.063 align:center
Dad!

00:04:53.313 --> 00:04:54.313 align:center
Dad!

00:04:54.813 --> 00:04:55.854 align:center
Dad!

00:04:56.396 --> 00:04:57.938 align:center
Dear, go to sleep.

00:04:58.313 --> 00:05:00.688 align:center
Did you have a dream
about your dad again today?

00:05:01.313 --> 00:05:02.271 align:center
It has been a year.

00:05:03.729 --> 00:05:05.688 align:center
He completely forgot
about us after going there.

00:05:06.729 --> 00:05:09.729 align:center
I will go to the Gurudwara
tomorrow morning to offer prayers.

00:05:10.146 --> 00:05:12.021 align:center
God will make everything right.

00:05:12.521 --> 00:05:14.313 align:center
Go to sleep, go to sleep, my dear.

00:05:14.396 --> 00:05:16.021 align:center
Go to sleep.

00:05:32.896 --> 00:05:33.896 align:center
Bless me, Aunt!

00:05:34.021 --> 00:05:35.063 align:center
God bless you.

00:05:35.104 --> 00:05:37.396 align:center
May you have a happy marriage, and may your brothers live long.

00:05:38.229 --> 00:05:39.313 align:center
Here, take the prasad.

00:05:39.604 --> 00:05:40.646 align:center
So, Auntie…

00:05:40.813 --> 00:05:42.479 align:center
did you find out anything
about Brother Dharma?

00:05:42.604 --> 00:05:43.604 align:center
No, dear.

00:05:44.313 --> 00:05:45.896 align:center
No news at all.

00:05:46.313 --> 00:05:47.896 align:center
It's been a year since he left.

00:05:48.521 --> 00:05:50.021 align:center
We received just one letter.

00:05:51.104 --> 00:05:52.771 align:center
We’re already broken inside.

00:05:55.021 --> 00:05:57.979 align:center
It has been 2 years since Kesar's
mother Mindo, passed away.

00:05:58.104 --> 00:06:00.729 align:center
I have just come back after
offering prayers at the Gurudwara.

00:06:00.813 --> 00:06:04.271 align:center
Since Mindo was from my maternal
village, she was like a sister to me.

00:06:04.604 --> 00:06:05.938 align:center
The two of us would...

00:06:06.229 --> 00:06:08.854 align:center
Share every joy and sorrow together.

00:06:09.938 --> 00:06:11.271 align:center
On that day, I was
also supposed to go with

00:06:11.313 --> 00:06:13.729 align:center
Mindo and Taaro to
harvest greens from the field.

00:06:14.521 --> 00:06:15.563 align:center
I think of...

00:06:16.104 --> 00:06:18.646 align:center
that day every day.

00:06:20.104 --> 00:06:21.563 align:center
We were standing right here.

00:06:21.938 --> 00:06:23.229 align:center
Sister, if you are free...

00:06:23.313 --> 00:06:24.854 align:center
come help me pick some greens from the field.

00:06:24.896 --> 00:06:26.438 align:center
Or someone else will take them.

00:06:26.521 --> 00:06:27.813 align:center
Sister, I wanted to go too...

00:06:27.896 --> 00:06:29.604 align:center
But it's time to milk the buffalo.

00:06:29.729 --> 00:06:31.396 align:center
She only lets me milk her.

00:06:31.521 --> 00:06:32.188 align:center
It’s fine.

00:06:32.229 --> 00:06:33.646 align:center
I’ll pick some for you too.

00:06:33.729 --> 00:06:34.688 align:center
Let's go.

00:06:34.896 --> 00:06:36.188 align:center
Okay, Auntie. I’ll bring some to your house.

00:06:36.313 --> 00:06:37.646 align:center
Alright.
- Come on, Taaro.

00:06:37.729 --> 00:06:39.188 align:center
Yeah, let'go, mom.

00:07:41.396 --> 00:07:42.479 align:center
Mom!

00:07:45.229 --> 00:07:46.438 align:center
Move!
- Mom!

00:07:47.604 --> 00:07:49.021 align:center
Come with me.!
- Mom!

00:07:49.104 --> 00:07:51.521 align:center
Let my daughter go!

00:07:51.604 --> 00:07:54.188 align:center
Let go of her!
- Move back!

00:07:55.438 --> 00:07:56.271 align:center
Leave me!

00:07:57.396 --> 00:07:58.313 align:center
Let go of my daughter!

00:07:58.521 --> 00:08:00.438 align:center
Let go of my daughter!
- Let me go!

00:08:00.521 --> 00:08:02.188 align:center
Let go of her!
- Mom!

00:08:04.104 --> 00:08:04.938 align:center
Mom!

00:08:07.313 --> 00:08:08.229 align:center
[Girl screaming]

00:08:09.896 --> 00:08:13.396 align:center
Let go! Leave my daughter alone!
Let go! - Leave me.

00:08:13.521 --> 00:08:15.688 align:center
Let go of my daughter!

00:08:15.813 --> 00:08:18.521 align:center
For God's sake, let her go.
- Tell your villagers...

00:08:18.604 --> 00:08:21.896 align:center
to return our women
and we’ll return your girl.

00:08:22.729 --> 00:08:24.146 align:center
Mom!

00:08:25.104 --> 00:08:26.146 align:center
Come on! Get up!

00:08:27.021 --> 00:08:29.646 align:center
Move!

00:08:31.229 --> 00:08:34.521 align:center
[Girl screaming]

00:08:34.604 --> 00:08:36.729 align:center
Taaro!
- [Girl screaming and crying]

00:08:36.813 --> 00:08:41.063 align:center
Come on! - Taaro!

00:08:41.146 --> 00:08:42.813 align:center
Mom!

00:08:49.229 --> 00:08:52.188 align:center
We did everything we could
to treat Mindo,

00:08:53.104 --> 00:08:54.729 align:center
but she didn't survive.

00:08:55.604 --> 00:08:58.229 align:center
No one ever discovered
what happened to Taaro either.

00:08:58.396 --> 00:09:01.313 align:center
After Mindo passed away,
I feel like half of me is gone, Aunty.

00:09:02.813 --> 00:09:03.854 align:center
And Taaro...

00:09:04.813 --> 00:09:07.354 align:center
I raised Taaro with my hands.

00:09:07.646 --> 00:09:08.688 align:center
Now,

00:09:09.396 --> 00:09:11.313 align:center
Kesar is all I have left.

00:09:12.146 --> 00:09:13.188 align:center
He’s all I have.

00:09:14.938 --> 00:09:15.979 align:center
Alright, dear.

00:09:16.896 --> 00:09:18.854 align:center
I’m going to check on Kesar.

00:11:06.021 --> 00:11:07.688 align:center
Grandma...
- Yes?

00:11:08.104 --> 00:11:10.646 align:center
Sometimes you throw a stick at me... - Yeah, yeah.

00:11:10.729 --> 00:11:12.854 align:center
and sometimes a shoe...

00:11:13.021 --> 00:11:15.146 align:center
Whatever you get your hands on,

00:11:15.229 --> 00:11:17.104 align:center
you throw it right at me!

00:11:17.646 --> 00:11:19.354 align:center
Yet, it never actually hits me.

00:11:19.521 --> 00:11:20.563 align:center
Yeah.

00:11:20.729 --> 00:11:22.729 align:center
Your aim can't be that bad, can it?

00:11:23.146 --> 00:11:24.938 align:center
Shut up, silly boy!

00:11:26.146 --> 00:11:27.479 align:center
You keep...

00:11:28.104 --> 00:11:30.438 align:center
throwing stones at those poor animals.

00:11:30.521 --> 00:11:31.896 align:center
Don't you have to go to school?

00:11:32.021 --> 00:11:33.688 align:center
Tie my hair in a bun first, Grandma.

00:11:33.938 --> 00:11:34.979 align:center
Come here!

00:11:39.646 --> 00:11:42.313 align:center
I have to keep fixing your hair bun.

00:11:42.813 --> 00:11:44.813 align:center
You're the one who
messed it up by slapping me.

00:11:44.896 --> 00:11:46.771 align:center
Yes, I'm the one who
messed it up with a slap.

00:11:46.813 --> 00:11:49.063 align:center
Who else would do it?
Did a ghost come here?

00:11:49.896 --> 00:11:50.938 align:center
Now go inside,

00:11:51.229 --> 00:11:52.896 align:center
grab your bag,

00:11:54.104 --> 00:11:56.104 align:center
fix your hair, and go to school.

00:11:56.521 --> 00:11:57.563 align:center
Where is my bag?

00:11:58.229 --> 00:11:59.896 align:center
Look over there, behind the trunk.

00:12:09.229 --> 00:12:10.688 align:center
Dear...
- Yes?

00:12:10.813 --> 00:12:12.313 align:center
Call Jeeti to come with you.

00:12:12.604 --> 00:12:14.313 align:center
How can she go to school all alone?

00:12:14.938 --> 00:12:15.979 align:center
Alright, Grandma.

00:12:18.979 --> 00:12:20.188 align:center
[Men on the bench, muttering]

00:12:22.896 --> 00:12:23.938 align:center
Jeeti!

00:12:24.938 --> 00:12:25.979 align:center
Jeeti!

00:12:26.646 --> 00:12:27.688 align:center
Jeeti!

00:12:28.938 --> 00:12:30.354 align:center
Come on, let's go to school.

00:12:30.896 --> 00:12:31.938 align:center
I'm coming, Kesar.

00:12:36.021 --> 00:12:37.604 align:center
What's the matter, Surjan Singh?

00:12:37.813 --> 00:12:39.521 align:center
Why are you scratching yourself?
Didn't you bathe this morning?

00:12:39.604 --> 00:12:43.146 align:center
I went to Zaildar's
house this morning. - Yeah. - [Man riding a bicycle, singing]

00:12:43.229 --> 00:12:46.063 align:center
He gave me some opium.
- Okay.

00:12:46.146 --> 00:12:47.813 align:center
I got a little high.

00:12:48.104 --> 00:12:50.354 align:center
Those thorns must be pricking you.

00:12:51.229 --> 00:12:53.021 align:center
How are you, Gaama?

00:12:53.813 --> 00:12:57.104 align:center
You seem rather
high for this early hour.

00:12:57.729 --> 00:12:59.188 align:center
I swear...

00:12:59.896 --> 00:13:00.896 align:center
not this morning.

00:13:01.021 --> 00:13:03.021 align:center
But I had a little to drink last night.

00:13:04.729 --> 00:13:06.104 align:center
Last night?
- Yeah.

00:13:06.146 --> 00:13:07.521 align:center
At what time last night?

00:13:07.604 --> 00:13:09.188 align:center
Around 2:00 or 3:00 AM.

00:13:09.313 --> 00:13:11.521 align:center
Oh, my God!

00:13:11.896 --> 00:13:13.021 align:center
Early morning?

00:13:13.229 --> 00:13:14.604 align:center
At 3:00 AM!

00:13:14.896 --> 00:13:16.688 align:center
Say something, Bachitar...

00:13:16.896 --> 00:13:18.313 align:center
he's your friend.

00:13:18.813 --> 00:13:20.021 align:center
So...

00:13:20.146 --> 00:13:21.188 align:center
so what?

00:13:21.729 --> 00:13:23.354 align:center
He drank at 3:00 AM.

00:13:23.438 --> 00:13:25.688 align:center
It was still nighttime, wasn’t it?

00:13:25.896 --> 00:13:26.896 align:center
Huh?

00:13:27.229 --> 00:13:28.271 align:center
Hey, Gaama!

00:13:28.729 --> 00:13:29.729 align:center
There's one thing.

00:13:30.313 --> 00:13:32.896 align:center
When they named you Gaama,

00:13:33.604 --> 00:13:37.229 align:center
your family must have thought,
“When he grows up, our son…”

00:13:37.604 --> 00:13:38.896 align:center
"...will become a wrestler."

00:13:39.438 --> 00:13:40.479 align:center
Brother,

00:13:40.813 --> 00:13:42.271 align:center
I did want to become a wrestler at first.

00:13:42.313 --> 00:13:45.479 align:center
If only my friend Dharma
hadn't left the village. - Right.

00:13:45.604 --> 00:13:50.063 align:center
Look, isn’t that Kesar with his schoolbag?

00:14:01.646 --> 00:14:03.354 align:center
See, Surjan Singh...
- Bless me, Uncle!

00:14:03.438 --> 00:14:05.271 align:center
Here comes the beloved
child of our village.

00:14:05.313 --> 00:14:05.938 align:center
Bless me, Uncle!

00:14:06.021 --> 00:14:08.021 align:center
Greetings! Bless me!

00:14:08.896 --> 00:14:10.229 align:center
Greetings, uncle! - [Man on the mat praises Kesar to another man]

00:14:10.313 --> 00:14:12.229 align:center
Greetings, uncle!
- Greetings, dear!

00:14:12.646 --> 00:14:14.354 align:center
Look at this lovely pair!

00:14:14.396 --> 00:14:16.521 align:center
Go on, dear, study hard.

00:14:16.646 --> 00:14:18.479 align:center
You’ll read our letters for us too, right?

00:14:18.521 --> 00:14:20.063 align:center
I can read letters even now.

00:14:20.104 --> 00:14:21.729 align:center
Even I can read them. - Well done!

00:14:21.813 --> 00:14:24.229 align:center
Go on, you little thing. - Well done!

00:14:24.646 --> 00:14:26.313 align:center
Education...

00:14:26.396 --> 00:14:28.729 align:center
...benefits everyone.
- You just eat peanuts.

00:14:28.896 --> 00:14:30.896 align:center
Quit talking about education.

00:14:30.938 --> 00:14:33.854 align:center
The Zaildar' niece is quite smart.

00:14:34.729 --> 00:14:36.229 align:center
Gama, what was her name again?

00:14:36.813 --> 00:14:37.688 align:center
Jeeti!

00:14:37.813 --> 00:14:39.688 align:center
Ah yes, Jeeti.
- Her father passed away,

00:14:40.146 --> 00:14:42.104 align:center
so the poor girl came to her mother’s home

00:14:42.146 --> 00:14:44.146 align:center
with her mother, to the Zaildar’s house.

00:14:44.229 --> 00:14:45.479 align:center
When writing the fate

00:14:45.646 --> 00:14:46.771 align:center
of her mother, Naseebo

00:14:47.021 --> 00:14:49.146 align:center
it seems God completely
held back His hand.

00:14:50.813 --> 00:14:52.771 align:center
It has been a year
since Dharam Singh left.

00:14:53.396 --> 00:14:54.604 align:center
Ever since Dharam

00:14:55.104 --> 00:14:56.104 align:center
left the village,

00:14:56.729 --> 00:14:58.813 align:center
all the life and joy has
gone from the village.

00:14:58.896 --> 00:15:00.104 align:center
Only God...

00:15:01.104 --> 00:15:02.146 align:center
knows His ways.

00:15:02.313 --> 00:15:04.271 align:center
Who are we to question God and say…

00:15:04.521 --> 00:15:05.604 align:center
"Don't do it this way,

00:15:05.646 --> 00:15:06.688 align:center
do it that way."

00:15:07.813 --> 00:15:09.688 align:center
And then you all complain
that Gama drinks alcohol.

00:15:09.729 --> 00:15:13.104 align:center
You all made me remember my friend
again first thing in the morning.

00:15:14.104 --> 00:15:15.521 align:center
Uncle, you already know this

00:15:15.604 --> 00:15:18.146 align:center
I had my first drink that day,

00:15:18.896 --> 00:15:20.688 align:center
the day my friend, Dharam

00:15:21.313 --> 00:15:23.354 align:center
left the village and went away.

00:15:23.396 --> 00:15:25.188 align:center
Gama, you will never
mend your ways.

00:15:25.729 --> 00:15:27.479 align:center
And you won’t listen to me anyway. Do as you please.

00:15:27.521 --> 00:15:30.354 align:center
Gama, what’s the plan today? I’m dying here.

00:15:31.313 --> 00:15:32.771 align:center
I’ve got it sorted. -
Really?

00:15:33.354 --> 00:15:35.188 align:center
Yeah!
- Great, let's go.

00:15:36.729 --> 00:15:38.729 align:center
Just tell me, do you have it or not?

00:15:41.104 --> 00:15:42.729 align:center
Hold on, hold on.

00:15:43.896 --> 00:15:45.104 align:center
Look at this.

00:15:45.729 --> 00:15:47.854 align:center
Wow, it’s homemade!

00:15:48.229 --> 00:15:49.229 align:center
Hold this.

00:15:49.521 --> 00:15:51.229 align:center
How are we supposed to drink this?

00:15:51.896 --> 00:15:53.771 align:center
Don’t worry. I’ve got my ways.

00:15:53.896 --> 00:15:55.104 align:center
Look at this, a bell.

00:15:55.396 --> 00:15:57.354 align:center
A bell?

00:15:58.729 --> 00:15:59.896 align:center
But how do we drink out of this?

00:16:00.021 --> 00:16:00.979 align:center
Since you stick your finger in everything,

00:16:01.021 --> 00:16:02.563 align:center
I’ll stick my finger in this bell

00:16:02.646 --> 00:16:04.146 align:center
and drink it.
Pour it quickly.

00:16:04.604 --> 00:16:06.063 align:center
Come on!

00:16:06.438 --> 00:16:07.396 align:center
Someone might come.

00:16:15.104 --> 00:16:17.563 align:center
Brother, give me some too.

00:16:22.146 --> 00:16:23.271 align:center
A. - A.

00:16:23.396 --> 00:16:24.521 align:center
B. - B.

00:16:24.896 --> 00:16:26.021 align:center
C. - C.

00:16:26.396 --> 00:16:27.521 align:center
D. - D.

00:16:27.604 --> 00:16:28.813 align:center
E. - E.

00:16:28.896 --> 00:16:29.896 align:center
F. -F.

00:16:30.146 --> 00:16:31.188 align:center
G. G.

00:16:31.521 --> 00:16:32.521 align:center
H. - H.

00:16:50.313 --> 00:16:53.021 align:center
Kesar, do you know my
father bought this for me?

00:17:10.021 --> 00:17:11.688 align:center
Move aside, fatty.

00:17:14.729 --> 00:17:15.938 align:center
Dear, Jeeti...

00:17:16.146 --> 00:17:17.979 align:center
you should never
make fun of anyone.

00:17:18.396 --> 00:17:20.021 align:center
Alright, sir.

00:17:21.229 --> 00:17:23.646 align:center
15 August 1947.

00:17:24.313 --> 00:17:28.104 align:center
On this day, India, our country, became independent.

00:17:28.729 --> 00:17:29.438 align:center
When?

00:17:29.521 --> 00:17:32.396 align:center
15th August 1947!

00:17:32.646 --> 00:17:33.854 align:center
Yes!

00:17:34.104 --> 00:17:37.188 align:center
But didn't the Partition
also happen in 1947?

00:17:37.313 --> 00:17:39.271 align:center
Who told you
about the Partition?

00:17:39.604 --> 00:17:40.938 align:center
My grandmother calls it...

00:17:41.229 --> 00:17:42.771 align:center
the Partition of 1947.

00:17:43.521 --> 00:17:45.854 align:center
Dear, they're one and the same.

00:17:45.938 --> 00:17:48.813 align:center
But sir, how could
Partition mean freedom?

00:17:49.438 --> 00:17:52.729 align:center
Dear, in the books
we call it freedom,

00:17:53.021 --> 00:17:55.688 align:center
but 1947 also brought great turmoil to Punjab.

00:17:56.396 --> 00:17:59.813 align:center
Our tears still haven’t dried.

00:17:59.896 --> 00:18:02.854 align:center
We had to find our freedom in the ruins.

00:18:12.938 --> 00:18:13.979 align:center
Come on, Kesar.

00:18:23.021 --> 00:18:25.688 align:center
Please give us some sacred threads, Uncle. - And the money?

00:18:28.521 --> 00:18:29.563 align:center
Here you go.

00:18:31.604 --> 00:18:32.563 align:center
Here.

00:18:33.313 --> 00:18:34.313 align:center
Let's go, Kesar.

00:19:23.313 --> 00:19:24.729 align:center
What did you wish for, Kesar?

00:19:25.021 --> 00:19:26.229 align:center
I asked...

00:19:26.729 --> 00:19:27.729 align:center
God...

00:19:27.813 --> 00:19:29.896 align:center
to make me grow up quickly.

00:19:30.021 --> 00:19:31.521 align:center
So that when I grow up,

00:19:31.604 --> 00:19:34.104 align:center
I can bring my dad back home.

00:19:34.229 --> 00:19:36.604 align:center
And see my mom smiling again.

00:19:36.813 --> 00:19:38.229 align:center
What did you wish for, Jeeti?

00:19:38.646 --> 00:19:39.771 align:center
I asked...

00:19:40.021 --> 00:19:42.771 align:center
that I could meet my dad just once,

00:19:42.896 --> 00:19:44.396 align:center
even if it’s only in a dream,

00:19:44.604 --> 00:19:45.896 align:center
so I could tell him…

00:19:46.104 --> 00:19:49.188 align:center
that a white scarf
doesn't look good on mom.

00:19:57.521 --> 00:19:59.146 align:center
There's my handsome boy.

00:19:59.646 --> 00:20:01.938 align:center
Go put your bag inside.

00:20:16.104 --> 00:20:17.438 align:center
Here, drink some milk.

00:20:20.313 --> 00:20:22.104 align:center
Why are you sad today?

00:20:22.521 --> 00:20:23.688 align:center
Grandma...
- Yes?

00:20:24.604 --> 00:20:25.813 align:center
This amulet...

00:20:26.396 --> 00:20:27.729 align:center
did Dad put it on me?

00:20:28.229 --> 00:20:29.354 align:center
Yes, dear.

00:20:31.313 --> 00:20:33.854 align:center
Your dad put it on you
during your first Lohri.

00:20:37.521 --> 00:20:38.563 align:center
Here...

00:20:42.313 --> 00:20:43.313 align:center
Oh...

00:20:43.896 --> 00:20:45.354 align:center
This thread needs changing.

00:20:46.021 --> 00:20:47.021 align:center
You drink your milk,

00:20:48.021 --> 00:20:49.604 align:center
then take it off and give it to me.

00:20:49.646 --> 00:20:51.729 align:center
I'll change it's thread.
Okay?

00:20:51.938 --> 00:20:53.271 align:center
Drink up, my dear.

00:21:14.021 --> 00:21:15.396 align:center
Buy a pan!

00:21:15.813 --> 00:21:17.146 align:center
Buy a spatula!

00:21:17.229 --> 00:21:18.354 align:center
Auntie, you buy something too.

00:21:18.396 --> 00:21:20.271 align:center
No, don't come near me.

00:21:20.521 --> 00:21:22.354 align:center
I don't know
where my grandson has gone.

00:21:22.396 --> 00:21:23.688 align:center
I am worried to death.

00:21:24.104 --> 00:21:25.979 align:center
I've been looking
for him for so long.

00:21:39.313 --> 00:21:40.396 align:center
Uncle...

00:21:40.521 --> 00:21:42.063 align:center
where do you come
from every year?

00:21:42.104 --> 00:21:43.229 align:center
We came from Rajasthan.

00:21:43.313 --> 00:21:45.604 align:center
We are descendants of Maharana Pratap.

00:21:45.896 --> 00:21:48.021 align:center
Ever since our ancestors were driven from their homeland,

00:21:48.104 --> 00:21:49.313 align:center
we’ve known nothing but hardship.

00:21:49.396 --> 00:21:51.229 align:center
We have never
returned to our village.

00:21:51.396 --> 00:21:53.688 align:center
Since then, we’ve been wandering from place to place.

00:21:56.396 --> 00:22:05.979 align:center
"Life lasts but two days,
no one sees the third."

00:22:06.104 --> 00:22:15.979 align:center
"I would be left destitute if
you no longer spoke to me."

00:22:16.396 --> 00:22:25.854 align:center
"Caravans of stars passed overhead,
yet not a single star reached my hand."

00:22:26.146 --> 00:22:35.979 align:center
"Once your feet enter the city of light,
the village of darkness is left behind."

00:22:36.146 --> 00:22:38.938 align:center
"Caravans of stars..."

00:22:47.146 --> 00:22:48.896 align:center
Kesar, run! Grandma is here!

00:22:49.021 --> 00:22:51.313 align:center
Stop right there! I'll teach you a lesson!

00:22:51.396 --> 00:22:53.313 align:center
I've searched the whole
village looking for you.

00:22:53.396 --> 00:22:54.438 align:center
Stop right there!

00:22:54.813 --> 00:22:56.229 align:center
I've been looking for
you since afternoon.

00:22:56.313 --> 00:22:57.979 align:center
Stop! Are you
going to stop or not?

00:22:58.229 --> 00:22:59.854 align:center
Where do you think you’re running?

00:23:19.521 --> 00:23:21.313 align:center
Don't cry, my dear grandma.

00:23:21.813 --> 00:23:22.854 align:center
Why shouldn't I cry?

00:23:23.313 --> 00:23:25.938 align:center
I’ve been searching for you like a madwoman since afternoon.

00:23:26.896 --> 00:23:28.104 align:center
And now it’s already evening.

00:23:29.604 --> 00:23:32.021 align:center
When you leave the
house without telling me,

00:23:32.521 --> 00:23:34.854 align:center
it scares me to death.

00:23:36.729 --> 00:23:39.813 align:center
I only have two
things left to live for.

00:23:41.313 --> 00:23:42.479 align:center
One is you...

00:23:43.438 --> 00:23:47.938 align:center
and the other is this letter from
your dad, sent from Bikaner.

00:23:57.438 --> 00:23:58.271 align:center
Jeeti!

00:23:58.729 --> 00:24:01.063 align:center
Are you going to stand in
front of the mirror all day,

00:24:01.146 --> 00:24:02.646 align:center
or are you going to
do some work?

00:24:02.729 --> 00:24:03.729 align:center
No, Mom.

00:24:03.938 --> 00:24:06.021 align:center
I am not doing any work today.

00:24:15.604 --> 00:24:16.896 align:center
I am heading over to the
neighbors' house.

00:24:17.021 --> 00:24:18.813 align:center
It's Nimmo's pre-wedding
sangeet today.

00:24:18.896 --> 00:24:19.729 align:center
Wait...

00:24:21.896 --> 00:24:23.563 align:center
The wedding is the
day after tomorrow.

00:24:23.646 --> 00:24:25.146 align:center
Do you really have to wear
your new clothes today?

00:24:25.229 --> 00:24:26.771 align:center
I am your only daughter, after all.

00:24:26.896 --> 00:24:28.979 align:center
You can just get me another set
stitched for the wedding. I'm leaving!

00:24:29.021 --> 00:24:30.563 align:center
Your uncle has
completely spoiled you.

Don't worry, I'll deal
with Uncle myself.

"My hands are adorned with fresh henna,
I can't even manage to cook the lentils"

"You start bickering with me already,
yet people stay together for years"

00:25:47.313 --> 00:25:55.354 align:center
"My hands are adorned with fresh henna,
I can't even manage to cook the lentils"

00:26:05.896 --> 00:26:10.854 align:center
"Gold ornaments
and a chariot of wood"

00:26:10.896 --> 00:26:15.938 align:center
"Our parents have
united us in marriage"

00:26:17.313 --> 00:26:21.854 align:center
"A new place, a new
home, among new people,

00:26:21.938 --> 00:26:24.813 align:center
slowly, everything
will fall into place"

"You start bickering with me already,
yet people stay together for years"

I can't even manage to cook the lentils"

00:26:50.813 --> 00:26:55.688 align:center
"This is no mere dollhouse game"

00:26:56.021 --> 00:27:01.104 align:center
"Marriage is the union of two souls"

00:27:04.896 --> 00:27:10.521 align:center
"This is no mere dollhouse game"

00:27:11.021 --> 00:27:16.271 align:center
"Marriage is the union of two souls"

00:27:17.313 --> 00:27:21.604 align:center
"How will I look
beautiful alone?"

00:27:21.729 --> 00:27:24.771 align:center
"True style and grace come
only when I'm with you"

00:27:24.896 --> 00:27:32.229 align:center
"You start bickering with me already,
yet people stay together for years"

00:27:32.313 --> 00:27:40.396 align:center
"My hands are adorned with fresh henna,
I can't even manage to cook the lentils"

00:27:50.813 --> 00:27:55.729 align:center
"You pull away and distance yourself,
you never stand close to me"

00:27:55.938 --> 00:28:00.938 align:center
"Though I know your
fights are just pretend"

00:28:04.938 --> 00:28:10.771 align:center
"You pull away and distance yourself,
you never stand close to me"

00:28:11.021 --> 00:28:16.021 align:center
"Though I know your
fights are just pretend"

I feel like the richest person alive"

[Gama, Singing: "Don't hurt me,
I won't be able to bear it."]

00:28:57.813 --> 00:28:59.396 align:center
Wow.

00:28:59.604 --> 00:29:01.021 align:center
Enough.
- Sister...

00:29:01.396 --> 00:29:02.521 align:center
I was just starting
to enjoy that song.

00:29:02.604 --> 00:29:03.604 align:center
Oh, never mind.

00:29:03.896 --> 00:29:06.313 align:center
Brother, eat your food. It’ll get cold.

00:29:06.438 --> 00:29:08.063 align:center
Sister, how come

00:29:08.896 --> 00:29:09.896 align:center
I haven’t seen her today.

00:29:09.938 --> 00:29:10.771 align:center
She’s gone to the sangeet.

00:29:10.896 --> 00:29:12.146 align:center
The neighbors’ daughter is getting married.

00:29:12.229 --> 00:29:14.188 align:center
Oh, I see.
- It's Jeeti's friend, Nimmo...

00:29:14.396 --> 00:29:15.271 align:center
Yes.
- ...Her wedding.

00:29:15.729 --> 00:29:16.563 align:center
Sister...

00:29:17.896 --> 00:29:20.021 align:center
Ever since your
sister-in-law passed away,

00:29:20.396 --> 00:29:22.438 align:center
Jeeti has been the
absolute life of this house.

00:29:22.521 --> 00:29:23.688 align:center
Can you believe it, brother…

00:29:24.229 --> 00:29:26.813 align:center
Our daughters have grown up before we even realized it.

00:29:27.604 --> 00:29:29.313 align:center
You are right, Gaama.

00:29:30.313 --> 00:29:31.771 align:center
Uncle...

00:29:31.896 --> 00:29:32.813 align:center
Greetings, Uncle!

00:29:32.896 --> 00:29:34.313 align:center
Greetings, dear!

00:29:34.521 --> 00:29:36.354 align:center
Come, sit down, my child.
Have a seat.

00:29:37.729 --> 00:29:38.938 align:center
You silly girl...

00:29:39.438 --> 00:29:41.479 align:center
Who told you to grow up so fast?

00:29:42.938 --> 00:29:45.271 align:center
Just like Nimmo, you
will leave us too one day.

00:29:46.521 --> 00:29:48.438 align:center
And you'll take all the
joy of this house with you.

00:29:48.521 --> 00:29:50.813 align:center
I am not going anywhere
and leaving you behind.

00:29:51.104 --> 00:29:51.979 align:center
And Uncle,

00:29:52.813 --> 00:29:54.521 align:center
I really don't like
this habit of yours.

00:29:54.604 --> 00:29:56.063 align:center
Which habit?

00:29:56.396 --> 00:29:58.021 align:center
Oh, this one?
- Huh.

00:29:59.813 --> 00:30:01.729 align:center
You take exactly
after your grandmother.

00:30:02.104 --> 00:30:02.938 align:center
Of course...

00:30:03.229 --> 00:30:05.063 align:center
Whose granddaughter
is she, after all?

00:30:05.313 --> 00:30:07.354 align:center
Are you all trying to
make me cry now?

00:30:07.396 --> 00:30:10.063 align:center
It seems like out of the whole family,
I'm the only one who's starving.

00:30:10.104 --> 00:30:11.688 align:center
I am hungry!

00:30:12.021 --> 00:30:13.021 align:center
Go on, dear.

00:30:13.146 --> 00:30:14.438 align:center
Serve some food
and bring it over for us.

00:30:14.521 --> 00:30:15.646 align:center
Alright, Uncle.
- Go on, sister.

00:30:16.021 --> 00:30:17.271 align:center
Make sure to add a
good amount of Ghee.

00:30:17.313 --> 00:30:18.396 align:center
Alright, Uncle.
- Jeeti, hurry up.

00:30:18.438 --> 00:30:19.896 align:center
I’m starving here.

00:30:20.021 --> 00:30:21.021 align:center
Just wait a minute.

00:30:21.104 --> 00:30:22.604 align:center
Should I sing one
in the meantime?

00:30:22.646 --> 00:30:24.729 align:center
Alright fine, go ahead and sing.

00:30:24.896 --> 00:30:26.146 align:center
[Jeeti talking to her mom in the background]

00:30:35.646 --> 00:30:36.521 align:center
Kesar...

00:30:39.604 --> 00:30:41.354 align:center
Where are you getting
all dressed up to go?

00:30:41.438 --> 00:30:44.021 align:center
I'm going with Mom to
Aunt's house in Takhatpura.

00:30:44.438 --> 00:30:46.271 align:center
When are you coming back, Jeeti?

00:30:47.104 --> 00:30:48.146 align:center
I don't know.

00:30:48.229 --> 00:30:50.146 align:center
How am I going to pass
my time without you here?

00:30:50.229 --> 00:30:51.563 align:center
The same way I did, Kesar

00:30:51.646 --> 00:30:53.354 align:center
when you went to your
grandparents' house.

00:30:53.396 --> 00:30:56.188 align:center
Jeeti, leave me some token
of remembrance before you go.

00:30:56.438 --> 00:30:57.271 align:center
A keepsake?

00:30:58.229 --> 00:30:59.604 align:center
What can I give you right now?

00:30:59.646 --> 00:31:01.813 align:center
I don't have anything
to give as a keepsake.

00:31:33.896 --> 00:31:35.313 align:center
Curiosity in life

00:31:35.396 --> 00:31:37.688 align:center
brings a sense of
fulfillment and joy.

00:31:38.396 --> 00:31:39.229 align:center
But desire

00:31:39.396 --> 00:31:40.229 align:center
and greed

00:31:41.313 --> 00:31:43.396 align:center
can lead us astray.

00:31:46.521 --> 00:31:49.688 align:center
When Emperor Alexander, while
conquering the world,

00:31:49.813 --> 00:31:51.271 align:center
entered Punjab,

00:31:51.604 --> 00:31:53.396 align:center
then ahead of his victorious convoy,

00:31:53.604 --> 00:31:54.604 align:center
on the path, a

00:31:54.813 --> 00:31:56.438 align:center
ahead of his victorious army.

00:31:57.021 --> 00:31:58.813 align:center
His soldiers came running

00:31:59.729 --> 00:32:01.188 align:center
and woke the ascetic.

00:32:02.146 --> 00:32:04.813 align:center
‘Get up, ascetic!’

00:32:05.938 --> 00:32:07.313 align:center
Don't you know

00:32:08.104 --> 00:32:10.021 align:center
That the king who
conquered the world

00:32:10.438 --> 00:32:11.646 align:center
is passing through here?

00:32:12.021 --> 00:32:14.063 align:center
Get up and salute the king.

00:32:14.313 --> 00:32:16.396 align:center
He replied, Why should I get up
and salute?

00:32:16.729 --> 00:32:18.146 align:center
I am a king myself.

00:32:18.396 --> 00:32:20.313 align:center
The soldiers started laughing.

00:32:20.729 --> 00:32:24.771 align:center
They said, Our king became a king
by conquering the entire world.

00:32:24.896 --> 00:32:27.646 align:center
Where are you a king of?
What have you conquered?

00:32:28.813 --> 00:32:30.271 align:center
With a very calm demeanor,

00:32:31.604 --> 00:32:32.688 align:center
that ascetic

00:32:33.229 --> 00:32:34.521 align:center
replied,

00:32:36.813 --> 00:32:38.188 align:center
Your king

00:32:38.729 --> 00:32:40.854 align:center
became a king by
conquering the world.

00:32:41.104 --> 00:32:41.979 align:center
As for me,

00:32:42.396 --> 00:32:45.729 align:center
I became a king by conquering
the desire to conquer.

00:32:47.396 --> 00:32:48.771 align:center
So, dear ones,

00:32:49.104 --> 00:32:50.188 align:center
desire alone

00:32:50.521 --> 00:32:52.771 align:center
is the root of all suffering in life.

00:32:53.813 --> 00:32:55.521 align:center
The person who

00:32:55.729 --> 00:32:58.021 align:center
has mastered his desires,

00:32:58.146 --> 00:33:00.313 align:center
is a king, even sitting in his humble hut.

00:33:00.813 --> 00:33:03.854 align:center
A king of bliss, a king of joy.

00:33:04.313 --> 00:33:05.563 align:center
Carefree!

00:33:06.396 --> 00:33:07.354 align:center
Unbothered!

00:33:19.146 --> 00:33:20.021 align:center
Baba ji,

00:33:21.396 --> 00:33:23.896 align:center
have you ever met God?

00:33:24.146 --> 00:33:26.896 align:center
Or do you know where God lives?

00:33:27.021 --> 00:33:28.396 align:center
Greetings!

00:33:30.729 --> 00:33:32.813 align:center
You have come at the perfect time.

00:33:34.104 --> 00:33:35.896 align:center
This boy was asking me

00:33:37.104 --> 00:33:38.604 align:center
where God lives.

00:33:49.438 --> 00:33:51.354 align:center
That’s a very important question, my child…

00:33:51.438 --> 00:33:54.354 align:center
and the answer holds the answers to all our questions.

00:33:54.396 --> 00:33:56.146 align:center
According to the Greeks,

00:33:56.396 --> 00:33:58.729 align:center
God created this world
in six days.

00:33:59.146 --> 00:34:00.938 align:center
On the first day, He created light,

00:34:01.313 --> 00:34:03.146 align:center
which created day and night.

00:34:04.021 --> 00:34:05.354 align:center
On the second day, the sky.

00:34:06.146 --> 00:34:07.521 align:center
On the third day, the earth

00:34:07.604 --> 00:34:09.313 align:center
and the entire plant kingdom.

00:34:09.896 --> 00:34:11.313 align:center
On the fourth day, the sun.

00:34:12.313 --> 00:34:13.479 align:center
On the fifth day, water

00:34:13.646 --> 00:34:15.229 align:center
and living creatures were made.

00:34:16.021 --> 00:34:17.521 align:center
On the sixth day, God

00:34:17.813 --> 00:34:19.021 align:center
created humans.

00:34:20.104 --> 00:34:21.479 align:center
And on the seventh day?

00:34:21.729 --> 00:34:23.188 align:center
On the seventh day,

00:34:23.313 --> 00:34:25.021 align:center
God rested.

00:34:25.896 --> 00:34:26.896 align:center
Huh...

00:34:27.813 --> 00:34:28.729 align:center
We too,

00:34:29.021 --> 00:34:31.396 align:center
leaving aside all our worldly work,

00:34:31.521 --> 00:34:34.354 align:center
must rest one day a week.

00:34:34.604 --> 00:34:35.438 align:center
On that day,

00:34:35.729 --> 00:34:37.896 align:center
we should meditate on God.

00:34:39.021 --> 00:34:40.813 align:center
True words, baba ji.

00:34:41.313 --> 00:34:43.229 align:center
That is a very profound thought.

00:34:44.396 --> 00:34:46.896 align:center
It is said that in the
beginning, humans were alone

00:34:46.938 --> 00:34:48.313 align:center
and became sad.

00:34:48.813 --> 00:34:50.396 align:center
To keep them company, God

00:34:50.604 --> 00:34:53.271 align:center
started playing
hide-and-seek with them.

00:34:53.938 --> 00:34:56.396 align:center
It was God's turn to hide first,

00:34:56.729 --> 00:34:58.563 align:center
but because the
world was newly made,

00:34:58.813 --> 00:34:59.896 align:center
everything was empty.

00:35:00.396 --> 00:35:02.604 align:center
There was nowhere to hide.

00:35:02.813 --> 00:35:03.688 align:center
Therefore, God

00:35:03.896 --> 00:35:05.313 align:center
hid inside the human heart.

00:35:06.313 --> 00:35:07.688 align:center
To this day, humans

00:35:07.938 --> 00:35:09.813 align:center
keep searching for
Him on the outside.

00:35:10.021 --> 00:35:11.354 align:center
But they never see the God

00:35:11.938 --> 00:35:13.438 align:center
hidden inside them.

00:35:14.646 --> 00:35:16.104 align:center
God is within us,

00:35:16.604 --> 00:35:18.854 align:center
and we are searching outside.

00:35:19.229 --> 00:35:21.229 align:center
If we look for God within ourselves,

00:35:21.521 --> 00:35:23.438 align:center
He will surely be found.

00:35:25.104 --> 00:35:26.563 align:center
Sadanand...
- Yes?

00:35:26.646 --> 00:35:29.021 align:center
Arrange some food for Sai Ji.

00:35:29.104 --> 00:35:29.979 align:center
Okay, Baba ji.

00:35:30.146 --> 00:35:33.229 align:center
I seek your permission to leave for Bikaner in the morning.

00:35:35.021 --> 00:35:36.521 align:center
All right.

00:35:36.813 --> 00:35:39.229 align:center
I also have to go to
Gorakhpur in the morning.

00:35:39.313 --> 00:35:40.979 align:center
Baba ji,

00:35:41.229 --> 00:35:42.604 align:center
please ask Sai ji

00:35:42.646 --> 00:35:44.854 align:center
if he’ll take me with him to Bikaner.

00:35:45.896 --> 00:35:48.729 align:center
I want to go look for my dad.

00:35:58.104 --> 00:35:59.396 align:center
Sai ji,

00:35:59.813 --> 00:36:02.813 align:center
this poor boy has suffered a terrible tragedy.

00:36:03.896 --> 00:36:05.021 align:center
During the riots,

00:36:05.104 --> 00:36:06.688 align:center
his mother passed away

00:36:07.438 --> 00:36:08.271 align:center
and

00:36:08.521 --> 00:36:10.188 align:center
his sister was kidnapped.

00:36:11.396 --> 00:36:14.938 align:center
One day, his father left home and never came back.

00:36:15.729 --> 00:36:17.563 align:center
I still remember

00:36:18.146 --> 00:36:19.771 align:center
the last time,

00:36:20.229 --> 00:36:21.396 align:center
ten years ago,

00:36:23.021 --> 00:36:24.021 align:center
Kesar's father

00:36:24.896 --> 00:36:26.063 align:center
met me right here.

00:36:27.229 --> 00:36:29.771 align:center
Baba Ji, gather a little more straw. The hut is quite big.

00:36:30.396 --> 00:36:31.229 align:center
Asanand,

00:36:31.813 --> 00:36:35.396 align:center
send Keshav to get some more lime. I feel as though...

00:36:35.604 --> 00:36:37.104 align:center
Come in, Mr. Dharam...

00:36:37.146 --> 00:36:38.479 align:center
Greetings, baba ji!
- Welcome!

00:36:38.604 --> 00:36:39.396 align:center
Welcome!

00:36:39.521 --> 00:36:40.354 align:center
Kesar,

00:36:42.021 --> 00:36:43.271 align:center
come here to me.

00:36:46.104 --> 00:36:47.438 align:center
Mr. Dharam Singh,

00:36:48.229 --> 00:36:49.479 align:center
Be strong,

00:36:50.396 --> 00:36:51.979 align:center
and make a fresh start in life.

00:36:52.521 --> 00:36:53.604 align:center
The past

00:36:53.813 --> 00:36:55.646 align:center
can be remembered,

00:36:56.104 --> 00:36:58.396 align:center
but it cannot be lived in.

00:36:59.521 --> 00:37:01.021 align:center
Yes, Baba Ji.

00:37:01.813 --> 00:37:05.396 align:center
I'm thinking of going to
Bikaner and buy some land.

00:37:07.521 --> 00:37:09.313 align:center
My heart has been very heavy lately.

00:37:11.521 --> 00:37:14.271 align:center
Sadness is not a bad thing,
Mr. Dharam Singh.

00:37:15.021 --> 00:37:17.688 align:center
In fact, it connects us to our life

00:37:18.604 --> 00:37:21.396 align:center
and our true reality.

00:37:22.229 --> 00:37:23.063 align:center
Baba ji...

00:37:24.313 --> 00:37:25.521 align:center
Why do you

00:37:25.729 --> 00:37:28.063 align:center
meditate for forty days every year?

00:37:34.604 --> 00:37:35.979 align:center
Kesar, my child,

00:37:36.896 --> 00:37:39.354 align:center
between humans and God,

00:37:39.813 --> 00:37:42.604 align:center
perhaps there is a
distance of just forty days.

00:37:44.604 --> 00:37:46.896 align:center
Between our history and mythology,

00:37:47.104 --> 00:37:49.396 align:center
forty days hold great significance.

00:37:50.396 --> 00:37:52.313 align:center
If we talk about
the world of religion,

00:37:52.646 --> 00:37:55.021 align:center
there are forty stanzas
of Sri Anand Sahib.

00:37:55.813 --> 00:37:58.271 align:center
The forty hymns of Bhai Gurdas.

00:37:59.021 --> 00:38:01.604 align:center
We read the Hanuman
Chalisa as well.

00:38:02.604 --> 00:38:05.396 align:center
Jesus Christ
fasted for forty days.

00:38:06.896 --> 00:38:08.271 align:center
In the Nath tradition,

00:38:08.729 --> 00:38:10.813 align:center
there is a forty-day trial.

00:38:11.813 --> 00:38:13.104 align:center
A Sufi

00:38:13.646 --> 00:38:15.813 align:center
observes a forty-day retreat

00:38:16.104 --> 00:38:18.521 align:center
to realize the truth of Allah.

00:38:20.021 --> 00:38:21.354 align:center
Even our mothers...

00:38:21.813 --> 00:38:25.188 align:center
rest for forty days
after giving birth.

00:38:29.104 --> 00:38:30.271 align:center
And today,

00:38:31.646 --> 00:38:33.771 align:center
if we speak in scientific
terms, my child,

00:38:34.313 --> 00:38:35.563 align:center
science itself says

00:38:36.313 --> 00:38:39.063 align:center
that to break an old habit

00:38:39.313 --> 00:38:41.104 align:center
or cultivate a new one,

00:38:41.604 --> 00:38:43.979 align:center
it takes forty days.

00:38:45.021 --> 00:38:46.146 align:center
That is why, my child,

00:38:46.521 --> 00:38:48.438 align:center
I go away for forty days every year

00:38:48.813 --> 00:38:50.771 align:center
to perform meditation.

00:38:51.021 --> 00:38:52.313 align:center
So that I can

00:38:52.729 --> 00:38:54.604 align:center
revive my soul.

00:39:00.438 --> 00:39:01.854 align:center
Mr. Dharam Singh,

00:39:02.604 --> 00:39:05.021 align:center
your son's abilities indicate

00:39:06.021 --> 00:39:08.021 align:center
that he is destined to bring honor to your family,

00:39:08.146 --> 00:39:09.813 align:center
and become a man of righteous action.

00:39:12.521 --> 00:39:13.771 align:center
Kesar, my child,

00:39:15.021 --> 00:39:17.813 align:center
now you are the only
support for your father.

00:39:21.104 --> 00:39:22.521 align:center
May God grant you

00:39:23.146 --> 00:39:25.063 align:center
a long life.

00:39:27.729 --> 00:39:29.313 align:center
Baba ji, I can never

00:39:29.521 --> 00:39:31.146 align:center
forget that day.

00:39:39.438 --> 00:39:42.104 align:center
'When we were heading
back home after meeting you...'

00:39:52.521 --> 00:39:53.896 align:center
Brother, I am going to the field.

00:39:54.021 --> 00:39:55.521 align:center
I will be a little late today.

00:39:55.604 --> 00:39:56.396 align:center
Okay, Gama.

00:39:57.146 --> 00:39:58.396 align:center
What happened?

00:39:58.604 --> 00:39:59.729 align:center
You look sad.

00:40:03.146 --> 00:40:05.188 align:center
Brother, should I come along?

00:40:07.229 --> 00:40:08.646 align:center
No, Gamme.

00:40:08.896 --> 00:40:10.771 align:center
You go to the fields by yourself today.

00:40:21.896 --> 00:40:23.313 align:center
Are the father and son back?

00:40:23.521 --> 00:40:25.188 align:center
Come right over here.

00:40:26.396 --> 00:40:29.229 align:center
I have been waiting for so
long after cooking the food.

00:40:29.896 --> 00:40:31.229 align:center
Where are you coming from?

00:40:31.313 --> 00:40:33.479 align:center
The head monk of the hut

00:40:33.729 --> 00:40:35.479 align:center
has to go on a forty-day journey.

00:40:35.896 --> 00:40:37.813 align:center
We had gone to meet him.

00:40:39.938 --> 00:40:41.521 align:center
You did a good thing.

00:40:42.104 --> 00:40:42.938 align:center
Kesar,

00:40:43.313 --> 00:40:45.688 align:center
you're becoming far too
attached to the monks.

00:40:46.229 --> 00:40:47.396 align:center
I hope it doesn't happen

00:40:47.438 --> 00:40:49.104 align:center
you don't end up leaving with them.

00:40:49.896 --> 00:40:51.563 align:center
Mom.
- Hmm?

00:40:51.729 --> 00:40:54.354 align:center
Baba Ji has advised me
to make a fresh start in life.

00:40:54.438 --> 00:40:57.938 align:center
I'm thinking of going to Bikaner to check out some land,

00:40:58.229 --> 00:41:00.521 align:center
We could sell our six acres here

00:41:00.646 --> 00:41:02.021 align:center
and buy more land there.

00:41:02.313 --> 00:41:03.313 align:center
A new place,

00:41:03.521 --> 00:41:04.479 align:center
a new life…

00:41:04.521 --> 00:41:06.021 align:center
but if you ask me honestly, my child,

00:41:06.104 --> 00:41:08.896 align:center
just hearing the name Bikaner frightens me.

00:41:13.313 --> 00:41:14.146 align:center
Dharam Singh

00:41:14.438 --> 00:41:15.938 align:center
left the house in such a way

00:41:16.521 --> 00:41:18.396 align:center
that he never returned home again.

00:41:19.813 --> 00:41:21.979 align:center
Bikaner is very far away,

00:41:22.104 --> 00:41:23.938 align:center
It’s a forty-day journey.

00:41:24.146 --> 00:41:25.729 align:center
Full of sand and sharp roads,

00:41:26.229 --> 00:41:28.063 align:center
and the whole journey on foot.

00:41:28.146 --> 00:41:30.271 align:center
Even water will be
hard to find on the way.

00:41:42.313 --> 00:41:43.521 align:center
How many times have I told you

00:41:43.604 --> 00:41:45.021 align:center
to be home before dark?

00:41:46.104 --> 00:41:47.729 align:center
I went to the hermitage, grandma.

00:41:59.521 --> 00:42:00.813 align:center
Here, eat your food.

00:42:11.521 --> 00:42:12.854 align:center
Grandma...
- Huh?

00:42:14.396 --> 00:42:16.104 align:center
How far away is Bikaner?

00:42:16.521 --> 00:42:18.104 align:center
What do you have to do with it?

00:42:18.729 --> 00:42:21.688 align:center
Don't even mention the name
of that place in front of me.

00:42:44.521 --> 00:42:47.146 align:center
Grandma, there was something
I wanted to talk to you about.

00:42:47.229 --> 00:42:48.979 align:center
We will talk in the morning.

00:42:49.438 --> 00:42:51.646 align:center
Now go to sleep peacefully.

00:42:52.021 --> 00:42:54.271 align:center
It's been so many days
since you slept well.

00:42:56.813 --> 00:42:59.604 align:center
I even put the quilts out in the sun today.

00:42:59.729 --> 00:43:01.479 align:center
Finish your dinner and come inside.

00:43:01.813 --> 00:43:03.563 align:center
I’ll get your quilt ready for you.

00:43:06.521 --> 00:43:09.688 align:center
Did Dad put this amulet on me?

00:43:10.021 --> 00:43:10.854 align:center
Yes, dear.

00:43:11.021 --> 00:43:13.604 align:center
Your dad bought this
for you on your first Lohri.

00:43:18.813 --> 00:43:21.896 align:center
Baba Ji, won't his
family be worried?

00:43:23.729 --> 00:43:25.854 align:center
His grandma must
be a little concerned.

00:43:26.104 --> 00:43:27.438 align:center
I'll come, Sai Ji.

00:43:27.729 --> 00:43:30.438 align:center
Alright son, come early
in the morning.

00:43:30.521 --> 00:43:32.229 align:center
We'll leave first
thing in the morning.

00:43:33.604 --> 00:43:34.104 align:center
Okay.

00:43:34.146 --> 00:43:41.063 align:center
"Sometimes lost in a dream,
sometimes appearing before the eyes."

00:43:41.146 --> 00:43:48.104 align:center
"Sometimes vanishing like vapor,
sometimes settling like sand."

00:43:48.229 --> 00:43:55.396 align:center
"The one whose name beats in your every
breath, and defines your identity"

00:43:55.521 --> 00:44:02.229 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:44:02.396 --> 00:44:09.563 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:44:10.021 --> 00:44:17.063 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest.
You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:44:17.229 --> 00:44:24.021 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest.
You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:44:24.396 --> 00:44:30.854 align:center
"The heart is His, the life is His,
He is everywhere."

00:44:30.938 --> 00:44:38.063 align:center
"Just call out to Him once,
and He arrives like an echo."

00:44:38.146 --> 00:44:41.896 align:center
"He arrives like an echo."

00:44:55.896 --> 00:45:02.979 align:center
"This unique, whimsical love
has an eternal bond with the light."

00:45:03.021 --> 00:45:10.063 align:center
"The memory of a separated beloved
becomes the path to finding oneself."

00:45:10.146 --> 00:45:16.979 align:center
"Why does the dark kohl in
one's eyes masquerade as tears?"

00:45:17.104 --> 00:45:24.271 align:center
"Why is a land infested with serpents
hailed as the realm of lovers?"

00:45:24.396 --> 00:45:31.313 align:center
"Man remains heedless and unaware,
unable to unravel the riddle within."

00:45:31.396 --> 00:45:38.438 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:45:38.604 --> 00:45:46.063 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:46:14.229 --> 00:46:21.188 align:center
"Even the burning warmth of restlessness
has its own rhythm and purpose."

00:46:21.313 --> 00:46:28.271 align:center
"To guide and give it direction
is a person's foremost duty."

00:46:28.313 --> 00:46:35.396 align:center
"Bowing before the Almighty Power,
and enduring the test of patience..."

00:46:35.521 --> 00:46:42.563 align:center
"Look straight into the eyes of
pain, and face it with courage."

00:46:42.729 --> 00:46:49.604 align:center
"Sages and mystics have said,
this separation is supreme."

00:46:49.729 --> 00:46:56.771 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:46:56.896 --> 00:46:59.313 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal,

00:46:59.521 --> 00:47:01.604 align:center
You are here.
- Yes, Sai Ji.

00:47:01.646 --> 00:47:03.938 align:center
"are just a guest."

00:47:04.396 --> 00:47:07.396 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:47:07.521 --> 00:47:10.896 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:47:12.021 --> 00:47:14.688 align:center
Baba Ji, greetings.
- Live long, my child!

00:47:16.313 --> 00:47:18.104 align:center
My child, during the journey

00:47:18.604 --> 00:47:20.354 align:center
you must stay with Sai ji,

00:47:20.813 --> 00:47:23.438 align:center
and obey his every command. - Ok!

00:47:23.604 --> 00:47:25.771 align:center
Whenever there is
a moment of trouble

00:47:26.396 --> 00:47:28.229 align:center
offer a prayer to God.

00:47:28.813 --> 00:47:29.521 align:center
Yes, Baba Ji.

00:47:29.604 --> 00:47:31.479 align:center
Whenever you need me

00:47:33.104 --> 00:47:34.771 align:center
I’ll always be with you.

00:47:46.813 --> 00:47:53.688 align:center
"No doubt there is pain,
no doubt the wound is fresh."

00:47:53.896 --> 00:47:57.354 align:center
"What was meant to
happen has happened"

00:47:57.521 --> 00:48:00.854 align:center
"now step into
the trial of fire."

00:48:01.021 --> 00:48:04.396 align:center
"Rise above the
quicksand, dear one."

00:48:04.521 --> 00:48:08.104 align:center
"Stars shine bright
in the night sky."

00:48:08.146 --> 00:48:15.146 align:center
"Splash water on your eyes to wake
up, and guard the door to your heart."

00:48:15.229 --> 00:48:22.188 align:center
"By embracing mortality with
love, living has become simple."

00:48:22.313 --> 00:48:29.271 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:48:29.396 --> 00:48:36.563 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:48:37.104 --> 00:48:40.063 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:48:40.146 --> 00:48:43.688 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:48:43.813 --> 00:48:47.104 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:48:47.229 --> 00:48:51.146 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:49:04.938 --> 00:49:12.021 align:center
"With eyes full of innocence and
purity, someone dances upon thorns."

00:49:12.104 --> 00:49:19.271 align:center
"Feet have written upon the earth,
a true travelogue of existence."

00:49:19.313 --> 00:49:22.854 align:center
"Those who drank
the poison of this world,"

00:49:22.896 --> 00:49:26.313 align:center
"now happily feast on
their beloved's love."

00:49:26.396 --> 00:49:29.938 align:center
"Those who sow shade
with their own hands,"

00:49:30.021 --> 00:49:33.521 align:center
"never fear the fiercest sun."

00:49:33.604 --> 00:49:40.479 align:center
"Neither take pride in silk,
nor lament the coarseness of rags."

00:49:40.521 --> 00:49:47.563 align:center
"In this dwelling called life,
you, O mortal, are but a guest."

00:49:47.896 --> 00:49:51.604 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:49:51.813 --> 00:49:53.438 align:center
Greetings, grandma!

00:49:53.813 --> 00:49:56.354 align:center
Greetings, dear!
What brings you up so early?

00:49:57.021 --> 00:49:59.729 align:center
Grandma, didn't Kesar come to tend to the animals today?

00:50:00.104 --> 00:50:03.396 align:center
He left before I even woke up this morning.

00:50:04.396 --> 00:50:06.313 align:center
And these buffaloes are also causing a fuss.

00:50:06.896 --> 00:50:09.479 align:center
You never know what he will do next.

00:50:11.146 --> 00:50:12.896 align:center
Anyway, is everything well?

00:50:13.521 --> 00:50:14.854 align:center
Yes, grandma.

00:50:15.021 --> 00:50:17.396 align:center
Grandma, I'll come over once I'm done with the housework.

00:50:17.438 --> 00:50:20.938 align:center
Don't worry. He's gone out at dawn plenty of times before.

00:50:23.438 --> 00:50:26.979 align:center
"My heart, one day I will heal"

00:50:27.021 --> 00:50:30.438 align:center
"though the rhythm and
melody are scattered right now."

00:50:30.604 --> 00:50:34.063 align:center
"The relationships
formed in this lifetime,"

00:50:34.146 --> 00:50:37.521 align:center
"who knows from which past
birth they connect us."

00:50:37.604 --> 00:50:44.646 align:center
"By divine alignment, they meet, those
who live far apart and separate."

00:50:44.729 --> 00:50:51.854 align:center
"No one knows who, when, or in
what form you might cross paths."

00:50:52.104 --> 00:50:58.813 align:center
"Whatever is happening,
it is all accepted."

00:50:58.938 --> 00:51:06.021 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:51:06.146 --> 00:51:13.521 align:center
"In this house of life,
you, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:51:13.813 --> 00:51:20.563 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:51:20.896 --> 00:51:27.813 align:center
"You, O mortal, are just a guest.
You, O mortal, are just a guest."

00:51:41.438 --> 00:51:44.563 align:center
Any news about Kesar,
Grandma? - No, dear.

00:51:45.604 --> 00:51:47.604 align:center
I don't know where he's gone.

00:51:48.729 --> 00:51:50.729 align:center
I'm getting very worried.

00:51:52.604 --> 00:51:55.688 align:center
Don't worry.
Kesar will come back.

00:51:55.896 --> 00:51:57.729 align:center
Let's go to the hermitage.

00:51:57.938 --> 00:52:01.354 align:center
Oh my! I didn't think of that.

00:52:01.813 --> 00:52:04.438 align:center
Baba Ji must know something.

00:52:06.729 --> 00:52:09.021 align:center
He cares for Kesar very much.

00:52:09.604 --> 00:52:11.396 align:center
Stay strong, grandma.

00:52:11.938 --> 00:52:13.563 align:center
Stay strong?

00:52:14.646 --> 00:52:17.438 align:center
I've been holding myself
together all this time.

00:52:18.813 --> 00:52:21.104 align:center
He's the only
keepsake I have left.

00:52:23.813 --> 00:52:27.229 align:center
Now tell me, whose shoulder am I supposed to lean on for strength?

00:52:28.813 --> 00:52:32.021 align:center
Tell me. Tell me...

00:52:32.104 --> 00:52:38.396 align:center
"In the house of life,
O human, you are just a guest"

00:52:38.646 --> 00:52:46.021 align:center
"In the house of life,
O human, you are just a guest"

00:52:46.229 --> 00:52:52.854 align:center
"The heart is His, the life is His,
He is everywhere"

00:52:53.021 --> 00:52:56.313 align:center
"Just call out to Him once"

00:52:56.396 --> 00:52:59.938 align:center
"He manifests as an echo"

00:53:00.438 --> 00:53:03.479 align:center
"The heart is His,
the life is His"

00:53:03.521 --> 00:53:06.563 align:center
Without a boatman, we cannot cross.

00:53:06.938 --> 00:53:09.896 align:center
It seems we'll have to stay here
for the night.

00:53:12.604 --> 00:53:13.813 align:center
Yes, Sai Ji.

00:53:14.229 --> 00:53:18.646 align:center
"He manifests as an echo"

00:53:21.396 --> 00:53:23.688 align:center
A person learns through experience.

00:53:24.229 --> 00:53:26.188 align:center
And a journey is just the same.

00:53:26.938 --> 00:53:28.604 align:center
Wait, Sai Ji.

00:53:30.313 --> 00:53:31.271 align:center
Let me massage your feet.

00:53:31.396 --> 00:53:32.729 align:center
No, no, my boy.

00:53:32.813 --> 00:53:34.646 align:center
You must be tired too, let it be.

00:53:34.896 --> 00:53:36.063 align:center
No, no Sai Ji, I...

00:53:36.104 --> 00:53:38.479 align:center
I used to massage my grandma's
feet back in the village too.

00:53:38.604 --> 00:53:41.021 align:center
Well done!
Bless you...

00:53:41.146 --> 00:53:43.729 align:center
Who gave you the name Kesar?

00:53:45.229 --> 00:53:47.021 align:center
Dad did.

00:53:47.521 --> 00:53:50.604 align:center
Your father gave you a beautiful name, just like you.

00:53:51.229 --> 00:53:52.063 align:center
My child,

00:53:52.104 --> 00:53:54.604 align:center
your elders have
taught you great values.

00:53:54.938 --> 00:53:57.271 align:center
One day, just like your name Kesar,

00:53:57.521 --> 00:53:59.604 align:center
you will spread your fragrance wherever you go.

00:54:03.438 --> 00:54:04.604 align:center
Here, son.

00:54:04.938 --> 00:54:07.021 align:center
Keep this stone in your pocket...

00:54:07.521 --> 00:54:08.813 align:center
and take care of it.

00:54:10.729 --> 00:54:12.229 align:center
And the second stone

00:54:12.438 --> 00:54:14.896 align:center
I will give you when
the journey ends.

00:54:15.438 --> 00:54:18.271 align:center
If you ever get confused in life

00:54:18.396 --> 00:54:19.938 align:center
and can't find a way forward

00:54:20.229 --> 00:54:22.313 align:center
hold both stones
in your hands

00:54:22.604 --> 00:54:23.688 align:center
and meditate.

00:54:23.729 --> 00:54:26.313 align:center
God will guide you Himself.

00:54:29.896 --> 00:54:31.021 align:center
Yes, Sai Ji.

00:55:16.604 --> 00:55:17.938 align:center
No, Kesar, dear.

00:55:18.604 --> 00:55:20.438 align:center
You shouldn't disrespect your hair.

00:55:22.021 --> 00:55:23.021 align:center
Take this pouch.

00:55:23.104 --> 00:55:24.771 align:center
Keep your fallen hair in it.

00:55:24.938 --> 00:55:28.229 align:center
At the end of our journey,
we will offer these to the sacred fire.

00:55:30.021 --> 00:55:31.229 align:center
Alright, Sai Ji.

00:55:48.813 --> 00:55:50.729 align:center
Dear, pack up all the belongings.
- Yes.

00:55:51.313 --> 00:55:53.021 align:center
The boatman is waiting for us.

00:55:54.146 --> 00:55:56.063 align:center
Let's go.
- I'm coming.

00:56:28.521 --> 00:56:29.646 align:center
Greetings, baba ji!

00:56:30.313 --> 00:56:31.188 align:center
Greetings!

00:56:31.979 --> 00:56:33.938 align:center
Baba ji, where are you going?

00:56:34.104 --> 00:56:35.729 align:center
We need to go to Bikaner.

00:56:36.896 --> 00:56:38.021 align:center
Sai Ji,

00:56:38.313 --> 00:56:39.438 align:center
about me

00:56:40.396 --> 00:56:42.021 align:center
and about my family

00:56:42.396 --> 00:56:44.021 align:center
you already know everything now.

00:56:44.229 --> 00:56:47.229 align:center
Will you tell me something
about yourself too?

00:56:47.521 --> 00:56:49.313 align:center
How did you become an ascetic?

00:56:49.604 --> 00:56:50.813 align:center
When did you choose this path?

00:57:08.896 --> 00:57:10.563 align:center
Gurdit, my son!
- Yes, dad?

00:57:10.813 --> 00:57:13.646 align:center
Son, today is our turn. We
have to water the fields tonight.

00:57:13.729 --> 00:57:14.313 align:center
Alright, dad.

00:57:14.396 --> 00:57:16.146 align:center
Hey, are you listening?

00:57:16.313 --> 00:57:17.896 align:center
The sun is right overhead.

00:57:18.021 --> 00:57:20.396 align:center
Come on, both of you — come and eat.

00:57:20.604 --> 00:57:22.438 align:center
Once you head to the fields, you won't be back anytime soon.

00:57:22.521 --> 00:57:23.688 align:center
We're coming, dear.

00:57:23.896 --> 00:57:25.271 align:center
Serve the food.

00:57:28.104 --> 00:57:29.188 align:center
Maano!

00:57:29.896 --> 00:57:31.104 align:center
Come here, dear.

00:57:32.313 --> 00:57:34.313 align:center
Grandma, I'm coming!

00:57:36.813 --> 00:57:38.188 align:center
Greetings, Chief!

00:57:38.604 --> 00:57:41.146 align:center
What's the matter, gentleman?
Is everything alright?

00:57:41.729 --> 00:57:42.521 align:center
Chief,

00:57:42.813 --> 00:57:45.313 align:center
the conditions in the country
are not good at all right now.

00:57:45.396 --> 00:57:47.354 align:center
The partition of the country
has been announced.

00:57:47.396 --> 00:57:48.979 align:center
Hatred and killings

00:57:49.313 --> 00:57:50.896 align:center
are continuously increasing.

00:57:51.396 --> 00:57:54.438 align:center
Sikh families are no longer safe
in this area at all.

00:57:54.604 --> 00:57:55.729 align:center
Is our village also unsafe, sir?

00:57:56.104 --> 00:57:57.354 align:center
Yes, Chief.

00:57:57.604 --> 00:57:59.979 align:center
That's why I thought I should come and warn you myself.

00:58:00.021 --> 00:58:01.313 align:center
Chief, you and your family

00:58:01.521 --> 00:58:05.146 align:center
must be ready to leave by tonight, or tomorrow morning at the latest.

00:58:05.604 --> 00:58:07.604 align:center
Prepare to leave for Amritsar.

00:58:08.146 --> 00:58:09.271 align:center
Now, please excuse me.

00:58:09.813 --> 00:58:11.938 align:center
I must warn the neighboring village as well.

00:58:12.021 --> 00:58:12.896 align:center
Thank you, sir.

00:58:28.729 --> 00:58:29.813 align:center
Village head, Uncle!

00:58:30.729 --> 00:58:31.938 align:center
Chief!

00:58:32.229 --> 00:58:34.729 align:center
Chief!
Chief!

00:58:34.938 --> 00:58:37.021 align:center
There's been an attack in Bhagwanpur.

00:58:37.104 --> 00:58:39.396 align:center
They are dragging Sikhs out
of their homes and killing them.

00:58:39.521 --> 00:58:40.646 align:center
Oh God!

00:58:43.229 --> 00:58:46.521 align:center
We have to catch the train to Amritsar tonight.

00:58:46.604 --> 00:58:49.146 align:center
Bishna, hurry and tell the villagers

00:58:49.729 --> 00:58:51.063 align:center
to leave the livestock behind

00:58:51.104 --> 00:58:52.688 align:center
take only essential belongings,
and reach the station.

00:58:52.729 --> 00:58:54.813 align:center
Okay, uncle.
- Yes, go.

00:58:56.104 --> 00:58:57.813 align:center
Pack the essential things.

00:58:58.021 --> 00:58:59.479 align:center
We will have to leave right now.

00:58:59.604 --> 00:59:00.188 align:center
Okay.

00:59:00.313 --> 00:59:01.521 align:center
I will go tell Rashid

00:59:01.938 --> 00:59:03.021 align:center
until we return,

00:59:03.313 --> 00:59:04.688 align:center
he can look after the livestock.

00:59:04.813 --> 00:59:06.396 align:center
Okay, Dad.
- I'll be right back.

01:00:39.813 --> 01:00:41.438 align:center
Malkit Kaur!

01:00:41.646 --> 01:00:43.063 align:center
Gurdit, son!

01:00:45.229 --> 01:00:47.313 align:center
Maano!
Maano!

01:01:33.271 --> 01:01:35.063 align:center
Since that day,

01:01:35.771 --> 01:01:39.313 align:center
I have never stayed in one place
for more than a day or two.

01:01:40.479 --> 01:01:43.354 align:center
Now, I find peace only in wandering.

01:01:51.479 --> 01:01:52.646 align:center
Alright, Sai Ji.

01:02:08.313 --> 01:02:09.521 align:center
Sai ji,

01:02:10.688 --> 01:02:12.271 align:center
how did you endure

01:02:13.104 --> 01:02:14.229 align:center
so much sorrow?

01:02:14.604 --> 01:02:15.604 align:center
Kesar,

01:02:16.021 --> 01:02:18.229 align:center
neither does the ocean
run dry of its water,

01:02:18.313 --> 01:02:20.688 align:center
sorrow never leaves our lives.

01:02:20.896 --> 01:02:23.229 align:center
Pain is the medicine, and comfort is the disease.

01:02:23.479 --> 01:02:24.729 align:center
And child,

01:02:24.896 --> 01:02:26.521 align:center
sorrow is our companion

01:02:26.896 --> 01:02:29.354 align:center
that keeps us rooted in our soil

01:02:29.813 --> 01:02:32.479 align:center
and reminds us of our place in life.

01:02:35.188 --> 01:02:36.396 align:center
Alright, Sai Ji.

01:02:37.188 --> 01:02:40.563 align:center
Kesar, there is a tale
of Gautama Buddha

01:02:41.104 --> 01:02:41.938 align:center
in which

01:02:42.396 --> 01:02:45.521 align:center
a mother lost her
two-year-old child

01:02:46.104 --> 01:02:47.979 align:center
and she went to Gautama Buddha

01:02:48.396 --> 01:02:49.271 align:center
to plead with him

01:02:49.771 --> 01:02:52.229 align:center
to bring her child back to life.

01:02:52.479 --> 01:02:54.271 align:center
Gautama Buddha said,

01:02:54.604 --> 01:02:55.479 align:center
“Go, mother,

01:02:55.813 --> 01:02:57.813 align:center
and bring a pinch of salt

01:02:58.188 --> 01:03:00.854 align:center
from a house where no one has ever died.

01:03:01.479 --> 01:03:04.563 align:center
Sai Ji, did she ever find a house
where no one had ever died?

01:03:05.021 --> 01:03:06.021 align:center
Kesar,

01:03:06.313 --> 01:03:08.229 align:center
there is no home in this world

01:03:08.479 --> 01:03:11.313 align:center
that is spared from
sorrow and death.

01:03:11.771 --> 01:03:14.104 align:center
So, the mother returned, disappointed.

01:03:14.479 --> 01:03:15.354 align:center
And then…

01:03:16.604 --> 01:03:18.396 align:center
what did Gautama Buddha say?

01:03:18.896 --> 01:03:20.896 align:center
The Buddha said, "Mother,

01:03:21.396 --> 01:03:23.813 align:center
as long as there is life, there will be sorrow too.

01:03:24.688 --> 01:03:25.479 align:center
Only

01:03:25.979 --> 01:03:27.604 align:center
the desire for constant happiness

01:03:27.896 --> 01:03:30.313 align:center
is the root cause of our suffering.

01:03:33.104 --> 01:03:34.479 align:center
Yes, Sai Ji.

01:03:44.604 --> 01:03:45.688 align:center
Son,

01:03:46.104 --> 01:03:47.521 align:center
is Baba Ji here?

01:03:48.104 --> 01:03:49.563 align:center
Swami Ji Maharaj?
- Yes.

01:03:49.604 --> 01:03:51.229 align:center
The one who is the head here.

01:03:51.313 --> 01:03:52.646 align:center
Yes, the head saint here.

01:03:52.896 --> 01:03:54.896 align:center
He left for Gorakhpur
yesterday morning.

01:03:55.396 --> 01:03:57.854 align:center
He won’t be back
for another 40 days.

01:04:31.188 --> 01:04:32.021 align:center
Kesar,

01:04:33.979 --> 01:04:36.479 align:center
this place is truly heartwarming.

01:04:36.813 --> 01:04:40.188 align:center
We shall rest here for the night.
- Yes, Sai Ji.

01:04:40.604 --> 01:04:43.438 align:center
Baba Ji, the villagers don't sow crops
around this tree.

01:04:43.521 --> 01:04:45.854 align:center
They say it's haunted by spirits.

01:04:48.688 --> 01:04:51.854 align:center
Then the night here will
be even more serene.

01:05:01.604 --> 01:05:02.646 align:center
Come on, young man,

01:05:03.188 --> 01:05:04.771 align:center
let’s gather some firewood.

01:05:05.479 --> 01:05:06.604 align:center
Yes, Sai Ji.

01:05:07.979 --> 01:05:09.479 align:center
It’s getting dark.

01:05:10.688 --> 01:05:11.813 align:center
Yes, Sai Ji.

01:05:26.521 --> 01:05:27.771 align:center
Gaame.

01:05:28.313 --> 01:05:29.688 align:center
Yes, Aunty?

01:05:33.896 --> 01:05:34.729 align:center
Dear,

01:05:35.688 --> 01:05:37.896 align:center
Kesar left home yesterday and hasn't come back.

01:05:38.688 --> 01:05:40.229 align:center
Yes, Jitti told me.

01:05:41.021 --> 01:05:43.188 align:center
I went and checked all
the fields yesterday as well.

01:05:43.271 --> 01:05:44.938 align:center
I also went to the other side.

01:05:45.396 --> 01:05:47.313 align:center
Go to Garna
Sahib Gurudwara,

01:05:47.813 --> 01:05:49.354 align:center
Kesar often goes there as well.

01:05:49.479 --> 01:05:50.438 align:center
Ok, Aunty.

01:05:50.813 --> 01:05:52.688 align:center
I've given the buffaloes some water

01:05:53.021 --> 01:05:54.813 align:center
and I've given them fodder too.

01:05:55.771 --> 01:05:58.729 align:center
If you need anything else,
just let me know.

01:05:59.521 --> 01:06:01.063 align:center
Who else would I go to, son?

01:06:02.104 --> 01:06:03.479 align:center
Just as Dharma is to me,

01:06:04.479 --> 01:06:06.438 align:center
you are the same to me.

01:06:08.771 --> 01:06:09.604 align:center
Dear,

01:06:10.604 --> 01:06:12.188 align:center
you should give up alcohol now.

01:06:12.771 --> 01:06:13.979 align:center
Aunty,

01:06:15.021 --> 01:06:17.271 align:center
I will quit drinking on the day...

01:06:18.104 --> 01:06:19.229 align:center
the day

01:06:19.771 --> 01:06:22.271 align:center
my brother Dharma returns to this house.

01:06:24.771 --> 01:06:27.438 align:center
Okay, Aunty, I'll go to the Gurudwara.

01:07:14.688 --> 01:07:15.688 align:center
Kesar,

01:07:16.396 --> 01:07:17.979 align:center
aren’t you scared?

01:07:19.604 --> 01:07:22.938 align:center
Yes, Sai Ji, I am a little scared.

01:07:23.604 --> 01:07:25.313 align:center
This place is just like that.

01:07:26.521 --> 01:07:29.938 align:center
And Sai Ji, what if some wild
animal comes here at night?

01:07:30.688 --> 01:07:33.438 align:center
Kesar, all animals
stay away from fire.

01:07:34.021 --> 01:07:36.354 align:center
That is why we have lit this fire.

01:07:37.188 --> 01:07:38.396 align:center
Your

01:07:38.604 --> 01:07:41.396 align:center
your fear will eventually
fade away, just like darkness.

01:07:41.688 --> 01:07:43.813 align:center
And whatever it
is you’re afraid of,

01:07:44.021 --> 01:07:45.979 align:center
you should confront it at least once.

01:07:46.979 --> 01:07:50.271 align:center
Otherwise, that fear will
stay with you for a lifetime.

01:08:58.104 --> 01:08:59.563 align:center
Greetings, Swami Ji.

01:09:00.104 --> 01:09:00.896 align:center
God bless you.

01:09:01.021 --> 01:09:04.521 align:center
Swami Ji, may I stay
here with you all tonight?

01:09:04.688 --> 01:09:06.938 align:center
We are all travellers on this earth.

01:09:07.479 --> 01:09:10.271 align:center
How can one traveller command another?

01:09:10.688 --> 01:09:11.938 align:center
Tie up your camel

01:09:11.979 --> 01:09:13.354 align:center
and come sit by the fire.

01:09:13.396 --> 01:09:14.688 align:center
Thank you, Swami Ji.

01:09:28.813 --> 01:09:31.479 align:center
Here, have some chickpeas.
You must be hungry.

01:09:31.604 --> 01:09:33.146 align:center
No, Swami Ji.

01:09:33.396 --> 01:09:36.188 align:center
I have plenty of flatbread
and chutney with me.

01:09:40.188 --> 01:09:42.146 align:center
Please, have some.

01:09:46.896 --> 01:09:47.813 align:center
Waheguru!

01:09:47.896 --> 01:09:49.104 align:center
Thank God.

01:09:49.188 --> 01:09:50.896 align:center
Here, son. Have some too.

01:10:04.188 --> 01:10:05.021 align:center
Sai Ji,

01:10:06.396 --> 01:10:08.396 align:center
I have been noticing all the way.

01:10:09.104 --> 01:10:11.521 align:center
You barely have enough for yourself

01:10:12.021 --> 01:10:14.604 align:center
yet you still offer
food to everyone.

01:10:15.271 --> 01:10:17.813 align:center
What if we run short
of food ourselves?

01:10:17.896 --> 01:10:19.938 align:center
There is an ancient tale.

01:10:20.604 --> 01:10:22.271 align:center
A king once proclaimed

01:10:23.271 --> 01:10:26.729 align:center
that, the following morning, he would
distribute gold coins among his subjects.

01:10:28.021 --> 01:10:29.396 align:center
And as dawn broke,

01:10:29.688 --> 01:10:32.021 align:center
a long queue formed
outside the palace gates.

01:10:32.313 --> 01:10:34.604 align:center
The king continued
distributing the coins one by one,

01:10:34.688 --> 01:10:36.563 align:center
and the queue
kept growing longer.

01:10:36.979 --> 01:10:41.188 align:center
But a poor man standing at the very end of
the line kept yielding his place to others

01:10:41.271 --> 01:10:43.479 align:center
and repeatedly moved
behind them again.

01:10:45.021 --> 01:10:48.104 align:center
The king, disguised, stood beside him and asked,

01:10:49.479 --> 01:10:50.646 align:center
"Good man,

01:10:50.979 --> 01:10:53.313 align:center
why are you giving your
turn to someone else?

01:10:53.771 --> 01:10:56.479 align:center
Once the coins run out,
you’ll get nothing.

01:10:56.771 --> 01:10:58.479 align:center
Blessed is our generous king.

01:10:58.771 --> 01:11:00.271 align:center
The king has coins to give away,

01:11:00.688 --> 01:11:02.854 align:center
and I have my turn to give away.

01:11:03.313 --> 01:11:05.729 align:center
The king earns merit in his own way,

01:11:06.104 --> 01:11:08.354 align:center
and I earn mine my way. - Wah.

01:11:09.979 --> 01:11:10.771 align:center
So, Kesar,

01:11:11.188 --> 01:11:14.979 align:center
nature never lets us go without what we need to live.

01:11:15.479 --> 01:11:17.896 align:center
The givers grow weary in their giving,

01:11:18.479 --> 01:11:20.688 align:center
while the receivers feast forevermore,
through ages upon ages.

01:11:21.896 --> 01:11:24.438 align:center
Wah! Very well said!

01:11:27.188 --> 01:11:32.813 align:center
"A lofty status is not
what truly matters"

01:11:33.188 --> 01:11:38.604 align:center
"What matters is
having a noble heart"

01:11:39.271 --> 01:11:44.604 align:center
"The one who stays grounded
remains on the right path"

01:11:45.188 --> 01:11:51.729 align:center
"For in the end, we
all return to dust"

01:11:52.479 --> 01:11:57.938 align:center
"Bathe at every
sacred pilgrimage site"

01:11:58.104 --> 01:12:03.646 align:center
"Observe vigils,
meditate, and keep fasts"

01:12:04.021 --> 01:12:08.979 align:center
"Perform service, spiritual practice,
and countless acts of charity"

01:12:10.896 --> 01:12:15.021 align:center
Swami Ji, thanks to you,
the night passed pleasantly.

01:12:16.021 --> 01:12:19.354 align:center
Otherwise, this place
was rather frightening.

01:12:19.813 --> 01:12:22.271 align:center
Because you were here,

01:12:22.604 --> 01:12:24.354 align:center
I even slept peacefully last night.

01:12:24.479 --> 01:12:27.938 align:center
Good man, shared troubles
and shared sorrows

01:12:28.188 --> 01:12:30.354 align:center
always feel lighter.

01:12:30.688 --> 01:12:33.771 align:center
Now, with your permission,
I'll continue my journey.

01:12:34.979 --> 01:12:37.271 align:center
May Almighty ensure your
journey is successful.

01:12:38.396 --> 01:12:39.563 align:center
Goodbye.

01:13:22.271 --> 01:13:27.604 align:center
"In a bundle of sorrow,
I carry a lifetime of tears"

01:13:28.104 --> 01:13:34.438 align:center
"My beloved has wandered away,
lost in this world"

01:13:39.896 --> 01:13:45.188 align:center
"In a bundle of sorrow,
I carry a lifetime of tears"

01:13:45.521 --> 01:13:51.104 align:center
"My beloved has wandered
away, lost in this world"

01:13:51.396 --> 01:13:56.896 align:center
"Without you by my side,
I feel I am slowly losing my mind"

01:13:56.979 --> 01:14:02.771 align:center
"Come here, you little lost bird,
let me take care of you"

01:14:02.896 --> 01:14:08.563 align:center
"Come here, you little lost bird,
let me take care of you"

01:14:37.979 --> 01:14:43.563 align:center
"Though I breathe, I no longer feel alive"

01:14:44.104 --> 01:14:48.979 align:center
"The bird never returned before nightfall"

01:14:49.104 --> 01:14:55.396 align:center
"Though I breathe, I no longer feel alive"

01:14:55.771 --> 01:15:01.188 align:center
"The bird never returned before nightfall"

01:15:01.604 --> 01:15:07.438 align:center
"My eyes bear witness to our love"

01:15:07.604 --> 01:15:13.313 align:center
"My eyes have not known
a single moment of rest"

01:15:13.479 --> 01:15:18.813 align:center
"Tell me now, which pearl
am I meant to seek?"

01:15:18.979 --> 01:15:24.604 align:center
"Come here, you little lost bird,
let me take care of you"

01:15:24.771 --> 01:15:30.604 align:center
"Come here, you little lost bird,
let me take care of you"

01:15:30.688 --> 01:15:36.771 align:center
"Come here, you little lost bird,
let me take care of you"

01:15:42.021 --> 01:15:46.521 align:center
Son, this tree is centuries old.

01:15:47.104 --> 01:15:49.604 align:center
Centuries old?

01:15:50.813 --> 01:15:53.563 align:center
This tree must have
witnessed so much.

01:15:53.896 --> 01:15:56.396 align:center
It must have seen
the world change.

01:15:56.979 --> 01:15:59.354 align:center
The world may have
changed its appearance,

01:15:59.604 --> 01:16:01.188 align:center
but human desires,
relationships,

01:16:01.313 --> 01:16:03.938 align:center
joys, sorrows,
hopes and longings

01:16:04.396 --> 01:16:05.563 align:center
remain the same even today.

01:16:06.104 --> 01:16:11.938 align:center
"Almighty, why did we become
so undeserving in Your eyes?"

01:16:12.021 --> 01:16:17.146 align:center
"My vessel was strong,
yet we still drowned"

01:16:17.271 --> 01:16:23.229 align:center
"Almighty, why did we become
so undeserving in Your eyes?"

01:16:23.688 --> 01:16:28.813 align:center
"My vessel was strong, yet
we still ended up drowning"

01:16:29.479 --> 01:16:35.271 align:center
"Who has taken away
the anklets from love’s feet?"

01:16:35.396 --> 01:16:41.188 align:center
"The branch where I once
tied my swing has now snapped"

01:16:41.271 --> 01:16:46.646 align:center
"It feels less like the branch broke, and
more like my own arms have given way"

01:16:46.771 --> 01:16:52.438 align:center
"Come here, you little lost bird,
let me take care of you"

01:16:52.604 --> 01:16:58.271 align:center
"Come here, you little lost bird,
let me take care of you"

01:16:58.521 --> 01:17:04.896 align:center
"Come here, you little lost bird,
let me take care of you"

01:17:34.979 --> 01:17:36.146 align:center
Please come, baba ji.

01:17:36.271 --> 01:17:37.896 align:center
May God bless you.

01:17:38.313 --> 01:17:39.729 align:center
Did you plant these trees?

01:17:39.771 --> 01:17:42.604 align:center
Yes, Babaji, for those
who pass this way,

01:17:42.771 --> 01:17:45.646 align:center
so they may rest here for a while.

01:18:04.479 --> 01:18:07.021 align:center
Thank you.
May God bless you.

01:18:16.896 --> 01:18:18.813 align:center
Thank you.

01:18:22.104 --> 01:18:24.188 align:center
This is the noblest
form of service.

01:18:24.396 --> 01:18:27.229 align:center
Travellers must surely be deeply
grateful to you for providing water

01:18:27.479 --> 01:18:30.771 align:center
and may Almighty bless you
abundantly for planting these trees.

01:18:30.979 --> 01:18:34.438 align:center
Sai Ji, there is something I’ve been wondering...

01:18:35.313 --> 01:18:36.771 align:center
Which faith do you follow?

01:18:37.771 --> 01:18:41.479 align:center
Young man, the question is not which faith we follow,

01:18:42.271 --> 01:18:45.396 align:center
but what our faith truly means.

01:18:45.896 --> 01:18:47.521 align:center
Our religion teaches us

01:18:48.271 --> 01:18:49.979 align:center
to help others

01:18:50.771 --> 01:18:52.271 align:center
and to give in charity.

01:18:53.896 --> 01:18:55.271 align:center
True indeed.

01:18:56.396 --> 01:18:57.521 align:center
Sai Ji,

01:18:57.979 --> 01:19:00.688 align:center
my grandmother also
contributes Dasvandh.

01:19:01.271 --> 01:19:02.104 align:center
Kesar,

01:19:02.688 --> 01:19:05.229 align:center
all religions advocate charity and virtue.

01:19:05.813 --> 01:19:07.646 align:center
In Sikhism, it is known as Dasvandh,

01:19:07.771 --> 01:19:09.896 align:center
in Hinduism, it is referred to as charity,

01:19:10.313 --> 01:19:12.646 align:center
in Islam, it is known as Zakat.

01:19:13.021 --> 01:19:15.396 align:center
And in Judaism, it is known as Tzedakah.

01:19:15.479 --> 01:19:17.271 align:center
Greetings.
- How are you, sir?

01:19:17.313 --> 01:19:18.604 align:center
God's grace. - Are you alright?

01:19:18.688 --> 01:19:20.021 align:center
Come, have some water. - Yeah, I'm coming!

01:19:20.188 --> 01:19:22.146 align:center
Allow us the privilege
of serving you.

01:19:28.188 --> 01:19:30.813 align:center
You're feeding your
food to these goats.

01:19:30.896 --> 01:19:33.896 align:center
My family survives because of these goats, sir.

01:19:33.979 --> 01:19:35.354 align:center
How much do you earn?

01:19:35.479 --> 01:19:37.771 align:center
It's enough to
support my family.

01:19:38.104 --> 01:19:39.521 align:center
Thanks be to God.

01:19:39.688 --> 01:19:41.979 align:center
Should I find you work with the horse traders?

01:19:42.104 --> 01:19:43.729 align:center
You look after these goats,

01:19:43.771 --> 01:19:45.271 align:center
you can do the same for their horses.

01:19:46.479 --> 01:19:48.271 align:center
That's very kind of you.

01:19:48.771 --> 01:19:50.604 align:center
But that would mean working under someone.

01:19:51.104 --> 01:19:53.938 align:center
And rather than tending
to someone else's horses,

01:19:54.771 --> 01:19:56.271 align:center
I'd rather herd my goats.

01:19:57.771 --> 01:19:59.438 align:center
Isn't that right, Sai Ji?

01:19:59.521 --> 01:20:02.271 align:center
You have spoken the absolute truth.

01:20:02.604 --> 01:20:04.688 align:center
It is far better to find peace in one’s own home than

01:20:04.771 --> 01:20:06.938 align:center
to serve in someone else’s grand mansion.

01:20:15.271 --> 01:20:17.313 align:center
Is it always this
lively around here?

01:20:17.396 --> 01:20:18.354 align:center
Yes, Babaji.

01:20:18.479 --> 01:20:20.854 align:center
People are always
passing through here,

01:20:21.104 --> 01:20:22.813 align:center
but two villages
beyond this place,

01:20:23.271 --> 01:20:26.979 align:center
a fair will be held tomorrow
at Peer Baba's shrine,

01:20:27.104 --> 01:20:30.396 align:center
which is why the crowd
is slightly larger today.

01:20:30.604 --> 01:20:31.979 align:center
I see.

01:20:34.104 --> 01:20:44.396 align:center
"Between the brows, the Divine
Guru has inscribed a sacred tilak"

01:20:45.021 --> 01:20:49.438 align:center
"In flawless rhythm and melody,"

01:20:49.771 --> 01:20:54.646 align:center
"He has planted the peg,
such is His divine illusion"

01:21:09.104 --> 01:21:14.729 align:center
"In the ascetic’s gaze resides the
vision that discerns truth from falsehood"

01:21:14.771 --> 01:21:19.688 align:center
"In the ascetic’s gaze resides the
vision that discerns truth from falsehood"

01:21:19.979 --> 01:21:25.396 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:21:25.479 --> 01:21:30.771 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:21:30.896 --> 01:21:35.938 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:21:36.104 --> 01:21:41.396 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:21:41.479 --> 01:21:46.688 align:center
"In the ascetic’s gaze resides the
vision that discerns truth from falsehood"

01:21:46.771 --> 01:21:51.896 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:21:52.188 --> 01:21:57.229 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:22:10.771 --> 01:22:15.979 align:center
"The seeds that have been sown must
be reaped in the fullness of freedom"

01:22:16.104 --> 01:22:21.188 align:center
"Go to the fair,
but do not lose yourself in it"

01:22:21.271 --> 01:22:26.521 align:center
"Go to the fair,
but do not lose yourself in it"

01:22:26.688 --> 01:22:31.729 align:center
"The eyes sways through
all eight watches of the night"

01:22:32.104 --> 01:22:37.313 align:center
"In the ascetic’s gaze resides the
vision that discerns truth from falsehood"

01:22:37.479 --> 01:22:42.563 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:22:42.771 --> 01:22:48.313 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:23:09.313 --> 01:23:14.896 align:center
"The entire universe
bows down to kiss His feet"

01:23:15.021 --> 01:23:20.188 align:center
"Clinking bangles cannot bring
the ascetic under your control"

01:23:20.313 --> 01:23:25.354 align:center
"Clinking bangles cannot bring
the ascetic under your control"

01:23:25.479 --> 01:23:30.646 align:center
"He lays bare the heart,
the mystery of the realm"

01:23:30.771 --> 01:23:35.771 align:center
"In the ascetic’s gaze resides the
vision that discerns truth from falsehood"

01:23:35.979 --> 01:23:41.354 align:center
"In the ascetic’s gaze resides the
vision that discerns truth from falsehood"

01:23:41.479 --> 01:23:46.521 align:center
"The Almighty sways like
a swing within the earrings"

01:23:55.604 --> 01:24:01.063 align:center
"When the hue of love rises,
it shatters even swords"

01:24:01.188 --> 01:24:06.021 align:center
"The dervishes must burn their homes
to witness such a spectacle"

01:24:06.104 --> 01:24:11.646 align:center
"The dervishes must burn their homes
to witness such a spectacle"

01:24:11.771 --> 01:24:17.063 align:center
"Only then does the melody align
with the flute’s yearning"

01:24:17.188 --> 01:24:19.813 align:center
"Only then does the melody
align with the flute’s yearning"

01:24:19.896 --> 01:24:22.854 align:center
Those who meet are destined to part,

01:24:23.479 --> 01:24:25.063 align:center
and those who part...

01:24:25.271 --> 01:24:27.063 align:center
are destined to meet again.

01:24:27.479 --> 01:24:29.396 align:center
this is God's eternal design.

01:24:29.479 --> 01:24:33.313 align:center
"In the ascetic’s gaze resides the
vision that discerns truth from falsehood"

01:24:49.688 --> 01:24:50.646 align:center
Sai Ji,

01:24:51.688 --> 01:24:54.229 align:center
everyone we met on our journey

01:24:55.479 --> 01:24:57.646 align:center
had some sorrow.

01:24:59.313 --> 01:25:01.438 align:center
Some share their pain,

01:25:02.813 --> 01:25:05.021 align:center
while others keep it
buried deep in their hearts.

01:25:05.104 --> 01:25:07.313 align:center
As long as a person
is alive and breathing,

01:25:07.979 --> 01:25:09.896 align:center
sorrow remains their
constant companion.

01:25:12.104 --> 01:25:13.896 align:center
But whether to be sad or not

01:25:14.771 --> 01:25:16.271 align:center
is in our own hands.

01:25:17.771 --> 01:25:19.813 align:center
How is it in our own hands?

01:25:20.979 --> 01:25:23.854 align:center
Once, a disciple asked his guru

01:25:24.104 --> 01:25:25.688 align:center
and asked him the same question

01:25:25.813 --> 01:25:26.771 align:center
Saying, 'Baba Ji,

01:25:27.396 --> 01:25:30.271 align:center
how can we lessen the suffering in our lives?

01:25:39.771 --> 01:25:42.771 align:center
The guru asked him to
bring two bowls.

01:25:44.771 --> 01:25:48.604 align:center
one for salt, and the other to drink water from.

01:25:56.021 --> 01:25:58.438 align:center
Then he put a handful of salt into the first bowl,

01:25:58.479 --> 01:26:00.104 align:center
and told him to drink the water.

01:26:01.104 --> 01:26:03.646 align:center
'How does it taste?' he asked."

01:26:05.271 --> 01:26:06.396 align:center
This is extremely bitter.

01:26:07.271 --> 01:26:08.563 align:center
Now discard it.

01:26:18.688 --> 01:26:20.021 align:center
Now fill it with water again.

01:26:25.313 --> 01:26:27.063 align:center
Now drink it and tell me.

01:26:30.271 --> 01:26:31.229 align:center
It's sweet.

01:26:31.396 --> 01:26:34.021 align:center
This is the only way
to overcome sorrow.

01:26:34.271 --> 01:26:35.938 align:center
If you keep your heart small,

01:26:36.021 --> 01:26:37.396 align:center
sorrows will feel immense.

01:26:37.771 --> 01:26:41.146 align:center
But if you expand your
heart like a vast river,

01:26:41.396 --> 01:26:42.729 align:center
then sorrows appear small.

01:26:43.104 --> 01:26:44.604 align:center
I understood, Sai ji.

01:26:45.396 --> 01:26:48.646 align:center
If we shrink our hearts
to the size of a bowl

01:26:48.771 --> 01:26:51.271 align:center
then every sorrow
will feel overwhelming.

01:26:52.313 --> 01:26:55.063 align:center
But if we expand
our hearts like a river

01:26:56.104 --> 01:26:58.854 align:center
then all the sorrows of
the world will seem small.

01:26:59.188 --> 01:27:00.563 align:center
Yes, Kesar.

01:27:01.271 --> 01:27:04.104 align:center
Son, you are growing
wiser with each passing day.

01:27:04.688 --> 01:27:07.021 align:center
You are moving
towards your destination.

01:27:36.188 --> 01:27:37.854 align:center
Hey! Hey! Go!

01:27:41.313 --> 01:27:43.396 align:center
No, young man.
- But, Sai Ji...

01:27:43.479 --> 01:27:45.771 align:center
Just as we walk our own path,

01:27:46.188 --> 01:27:49.854 align:center
in the same way, this creature too has
every right to follow its own path.

01:27:50.688 --> 01:27:52.146 align:center
Come, let's go.

01:28:00.771 --> 01:28:03.271 align:center
Say it with me: 'K.'
- 'K.'

01:28:03.313 --> 01:28:05.229 align:center
'Kh'.
- 'Kh'.

01:28:05.313 --> 01:28:07.146 align:center
'G'.
- 'G'.

01:28:07.188 --> 01:28:08.854 align:center
'D'.
- 'D'.

01:28:08.896 --> 01:28:10.646 align:center
'DH'.
- 'DH'.

01:28:10.688 --> 01:28:12.646 align:center
'Ch'.
- 'Ch'.

01:28:12.688 --> 01:28:14.271 align:center
'Chh'.
- 'Chh'.

01:28:14.688 --> 01:28:15.479 align:center
'J'.

01:28:17.688 --> 01:28:20.104 align:center
Kesar, how far did you study?

01:28:20.813 --> 01:28:23.896 align:center
Sai Ji, in our village, schooling
only goes up to the eighth grade.

01:28:23.979 --> 01:28:27.729 align:center
So I could only study up to that level.
- Okay.

01:28:28.021 --> 01:28:32.063 align:center
Sai Ji, you must be
very well-educated.

01:28:32.271 --> 01:28:36.313 align:center
Son, there was no school
in the villages around us.

01:28:36.896 --> 01:28:39.604 align:center
I learnt Gurmukhi from the
baba at the village Gurudwara,

01:28:39.688 --> 01:28:41.271 align:center
and Urdu from Maulvi Sahib.

01:28:41.396 --> 01:28:42.063 align:center
Really?

01:28:42.188 --> 01:28:44.146 align:center
I slowly learned the alphabet and

01:28:44.396 --> 01:28:46.479 align:center
began reading by
piecing letters together.

01:28:46.896 --> 01:28:49.438 align:center
Whenever I come across a good book,

01:28:49.521 --> 01:28:51.271 align:center
I make sure to read it.

01:28:51.479 --> 01:28:54.104 align:center
Sai Ji, but you already possess
such profound knowledge.

01:28:54.604 --> 01:28:56.313 align:center
Then why do you read books?

01:28:57.604 --> 01:29:00.521 align:center
It's not as if you need to
study to pass exams, is it?

01:29:02.188 --> 01:29:05.521 align:center
Books are not intended
solely for passing examinations.

01:29:05.896 --> 01:29:09.646 align:center
The knowledge gained from books
illuminates one's path in life,

01:29:09.896 --> 01:29:13.896 align:center
and our Gurus have even elevated the very
word itself to the status of a teacher.

01:29:14.396 --> 01:29:15.313 align:center
Yes.

01:29:26.604 --> 01:29:29.396 align:center
Many have come here,
and many have departed.

01:29:29.771 --> 01:29:32.104 align:center
Only a rare few possess
gratitude and patience.

01:29:32.271 --> 01:29:34.563 align:center
Keep your feet
firmly on the ground,

01:29:34.896 --> 01:29:37.396 align:center
for who knows, there may
be a grave beneath your feet.

01:29:37.479 --> 01:29:41.229 align:center
Sai Ji, our village teacher
used to say the same thing.

01:29:41.604 --> 01:29:44.146 align:center
My dear, truly noble men
tend to hold the same view.

01:29:44.271 --> 01:29:47.104 align:center
It is only the foolish who differ
merely in their manner of expression.

01:29:47.188 --> 01:29:48.229 align:center
Yes.

01:29:51.396 --> 01:29:52.896 align:center
Sai Ji.

01:29:55.813 --> 01:29:57.104 align:center
Sai Ji, greetings.

01:29:57.479 --> 01:29:58.729 align:center
Greetings.

01:29:59.104 --> 01:30:01.021 align:center
I am often travelling,
just like you.

01:30:02.896 --> 01:30:06.021 align:center
People say I have
wheels on my feet.

01:30:06.896 --> 01:30:09.354 align:center
Do our feet truly
have wheels, Sai Ji?

01:30:10.688 --> 01:30:14.646 align:center
My dear, life itself
moves in cycles.

01:30:15.771 --> 01:30:17.521 align:center
From the very point it begins

01:30:18.188 --> 01:30:20.688 align:center
one day, it all comes to
an end at that very point.

01:30:21.688 --> 01:30:25.063 align:center
In the universe,
everything moves in cycles.

01:30:26.271 --> 01:30:28.229 align:center
When the body moves
in circular motion,

01:30:28.688 --> 01:30:30.271 align:center
the mind attains steadiness,

01:30:30.771 --> 01:30:34.896 align:center
hence we perform circumambulation
around the sacred site.

01:30:37.896 --> 01:30:41.438 align:center
My only concern is earning
a livelihood, Sai Ji.

01:30:43.271 --> 01:30:44.563 align:center
I have taken on many jobs,

01:30:45.313 --> 01:30:47.354 align:center
yet none has ever lasted.

01:30:47.688 --> 01:30:50.979 align:center
Every four to six months, I end up
having to move on to something new.

01:30:52.604 --> 01:30:57.063 align:center
If you dig five pits, each ten yards
deep, you will still find no water.

01:30:57.396 --> 01:31:00.396 align:center
You must dig a single
pit fifty yards deep. - Alright.

01:31:02.479 --> 01:31:03.813 align:center
May God bless you.

01:31:03.896 --> 01:31:04.729 align:center
Stay happy.

01:31:20.688 --> 01:31:23.354 align:center
It seems your fate and
sustenance are with us as well.

01:31:24.271 --> 01:31:26.438 align:center
There must be some old
connection between us.

01:31:27.271 --> 01:31:29.438 align:center
Sai Ji, when I was a child,

01:31:29.479 --> 01:31:32.104 align:center
I once picked up a puppy from
the street and brought it home.

01:31:32.188 --> 01:31:34.271 align:center
I named him Baaz.

01:31:34.313 --> 01:31:38.229 align:center
Before the Partition,
we had a puppy named Bisha.

01:31:38.813 --> 01:31:40.313 align:center
At home, in the fields,

01:31:40.896 --> 01:31:42.229 align:center
he was always with me.

01:31:42.479 --> 01:31:45.979 align:center
During the Partition, when
we hurried towards the station,

01:31:46.188 --> 01:31:49.313 align:center
Bisha kept running
after me for a long time,

01:31:50.396 --> 01:31:54.188 align:center
then perhaps he grew tired
and was left behind somewhere.

01:31:55.896 --> 01:31:57.771 align:center
Should we call him Baaz?

01:32:00.104 --> 01:32:03.188 align:center
No, Sai ji, Bisha is fine.

01:32:16.188 --> 01:32:20.229 align:center
"In this world, there are
beasts and darkness all around"

01:32:20.771 --> 01:32:24.563 align:center
"Yet my mind remains
immersed in bliss"

01:32:25.104 --> 01:32:29.313 align:center
"I found it only through
surrender and loss"

01:32:30.104 --> 01:32:33.813 align:center
"At dawn, I am filled with
supreme, boundless joy"

01:32:39.313 --> 01:32:40.896 align:center
But, Sai Ji,

01:32:41.813 --> 01:32:43.896 align:center
everyone is afraid
of death, aren't they?

01:32:45.771 --> 01:32:46.646 align:center
Dear,

01:32:48.396 --> 01:32:50.604 align:center
where the fear of
death comes to an end,

01:32:51.104 --> 01:32:53.354 align:center
that is where life truly begins.

01:33:00.479 --> 01:33:03.688 align:center
This universe, beautifully
adorned by the divine,

01:33:03.771 --> 01:33:04.854 align:center
is truly magnificent.

01:33:04.979 --> 01:33:07.563 align:center
It is truly a heaven on earth.

01:33:09.771 --> 01:33:11.354 align:center
Sai Ji,

01:33:11.813 --> 01:33:13.729 align:center
do heaven and hell

01:33:14.521 --> 01:33:15.813 align:center
really exist?

01:33:16.604 --> 01:33:19.229 align:center
Or are they merely thoughts?

01:33:22.188 --> 01:33:23.313 align:center
Kesar...

01:33:23.396 --> 01:33:28.063 align:center
Once, a king went to a sage
to ask exactly this question.

01:33:35.021 --> 01:33:36.479 align:center
Hail the revered Saint.

01:33:36.604 --> 01:33:39.313 align:center
Our king has himself
come to see you

01:33:39.979 --> 01:33:42.854 align:center
and wishes to ask,
what are heaven and hell?

01:33:51.188 --> 01:33:52.438 align:center
Which king?

01:33:54.188 --> 01:33:57.479 align:center
He looks like a beggar.
- Saint!

01:34:00.604 --> 01:34:05.354 align:center
Being unable to control
one's mind is hell.

01:34:13.271 --> 01:34:16.271 align:center
To have mastery over one's mind

01:34:17.479 --> 01:34:20.396 align:center
is heaven.

01:34:27.313 --> 01:34:31.313 align:center
It is our own thinking that shapes our joy and our pain.

01:34:31.771 --> 01:34:34.271 align:center
One who conquers the
mind conquers the world.

01:34:34.479 --> 01:34:37.313 align:center
After the Tenth Guru's
family was torn apart,

01:34:37.813 --> 01:34:41.271 align:center
he rested in the forests of Machhiwara
on a stone, using it as a pillow,

01:34:41.313 --> 01:34:43.438 align:center
yet he remained in a
state of serene sleep,

01:34:43.771 --> 01:34:45.854 align:center
even in absolute solitude,

01:34:46.271 --> 01:34:49.604 align:center
writing a letter like the
Zafarnama to the emperor,

01:34:49.979 --> 01:34:51.313 align:center
stands as a profound testament

01:34:51.396 --> 01:34:53.854 align:center

"When one steps

01:35:30.688 --> 01:35:35.313 align:center

the world falls away"

"The caravan of stars"

"The world lasts only two days"

01:35:42.479 --> 01:35:47.896 align:center
"There is no third day, my love"

01:35:48.313 --> 01:35:57.688 align:center

today if you do not speak to me"

the world falls away"

were buried in the night,"

"Those slightly blue eyes, drenched
in tears, became the heart's shroud,"

01:36:50.771 --> 01:36:55.604 align:center
"A restless, unhinged
soul ran after his mother,"

01:36:55.771 --> 01:37:00.479 align:center

child of pain,"

Hail Lord Shiva.

01:38:12.979 --> 01:38:14.604 align:center
Hail Lord Shiva.

01:38:15.104 --> 01:38:16.313 align:center
Baba, where are you headed?

01:38:16.396 --> 01:38:18.271 align:center
We're going to Bikaner.

01:38:18.604 --> 01:38:20.563 align:center
Baba, we're also
heading to the next village.

01:38:21.021 --> 01:38:22.438 align:center
Please, come, we'll drop you there.

01:38:24.104 --> 01:38:25.854 align:center
Please, Baba.
- Alright.

01:38:31.479 --> 01:38:34.063 align:center
Bishe, come here.

01:38:34.188 --> 01:38:36.063 align:center
Come on, Bishe.
- Come here.

01:38:36.688 --> 01:38:39.396 align:center
Come here. Get on.

01:38:51.188 --> 01:38:54.313 align:center
O servants of God,
where are you headed today?

01:38:54.479 --> 01:38:57.021 align:center
Sai ji, last year my
house was robbed.

01:38:57.604 --> 01:39:00.521 align:center
The thief was caught, and
it turned out he was my own enemy.

01:39:00.688 --> 01:39:03.396 align:center
He's in prison, but the jewellery
hasn't been recovered yet.

01:39:03.479 --> 01:39:07.771 align:center
By good fortune,
he wrote a letter revealing

01:39:07.813 --> 01:39:09.521 align:center
where he had hidden the jewellery.

01:39:09.771 --> 01:39:11.438 align:center
So we're going to get those jewels.

01:39:11.479 --> 01:39:15.271 align:center
Brothers, your enemy hasn't
told the police anything so far

01:39:15.313 --> 01:39:17.979 align:center
so how can you be so sure that
the letter will tell you the truth

01:39:18.021 --> 01:39:19.896 align:center
about where he has
hidden the jewels?

01:39:19.979 --> 01:39:21.188 align:center
I don't understand, Baba.

01:39:21.271 --> 01:39:24.438 align:center
A man who has
once lost his credibility

01:39:24.479 --> 01:39:27.021 align:center
before placing our
trust in such a man again

01:39:27.104 --> 01:39:29.146 align:center
we must think a hundred times over.

01:39:29.313 --> 01:39:31.563 align:center
You must have heard the
story of Vigde, haven't you?

01:39:31.604 --> 01:39:32.563 align:center
No.

01:39:32.688 --> 01:39:35.563 align:center
In a village, there lived
a man of wicked thoughts

01:39:35.688 --> 01:39:37.438 align:center
everyone used to call him Vigda.

01:39:37.521 --> 01:39:39.979 align:center
He had been a constant
nuisance to the entire village.

01:39:40.104 --> 01:39:42.646 align:center
And, fed up, the villagers
drove him out of the village.

01:39:42.688 --> 01:39:44.313 align:center
He went on to live
outside the village.

01:39:44.396 --> 01:39:46.229 align:center
Did the villagers banish him?

01:39:46.479 --> 01:39:48.313 align:center
Yes, they did banish him.

01:39:48.479 --> 01:39:51.229 align:center
After a few years,
Vigda fell gravely ill.

01:39:51.313 --> 01:39:53.396 align:center
No medication or treatment
could restore his health.

01:39:53.479 --> 01:39:56.354 align:center
On his deathbed,
Vigde addressed the village elders

01:39:56.521 --> 01:39:59.021 align:center
and asked them to
fulfil his final two wishes.

01:39:59.188 --> 01:40:00.229 align:center
And when he passed away

01:40:00.271 --> 01:40:03.688 align:center
the villagers felt they
should honour his final wish.

01:40:03.979 --> 01:40:07.896 align:center
Following his instructions, they drove
an iron nail into the corpse's forehead

01:40:07.979 --> 01:40:09.688 align:center
and summoned the local Kotwal.

01:40:09.979 --> 01:40:11.396 align:center
The Kotwal arrived
and inspected the body

01:40:11.479 --> 01:40:13.146 align:center
and realised it was
a case of murder.

01:40:13.188 --> 01:40:16.729 align:center
He called the police and
had the entire village arrested.

01:40:16.813 --> 01:40:18.729 align:center
Now, in prison, the villagers think

01:40:18.979 --> 01:40:21.813 align:center
that Vigda, even in death,
has caused yet another problem.

01:40:23.771 --> 01:40:25.688 align:center
He is not your friend, brother.

01:40:26.396 --> 01:40:29.604 align:center
And a man who has
once lost his credibility,

01:40:29.896 --> 01:40:32.146 align:center
before placing trust in him again,

01:40:32.313 --> 01:40:33.896 align:center
should think a hundred times over.

01:40:33.979 --> 01:40:37.021 align:center
As for the rest, you sort it
out amongst yourselves.

01:40:37.479 --> 01:40:39.271 align:center
This is our stop, brothers.

01:40:39.396 --> 01:40:40.896 align:center
Drop us off here.
- Hey, stop.

01:40:40.938 --> 01:40:42.229 align:center
We'll go our own way.

01:40:47.604 --> 01:40:48.813 align:center
Bishe, get off.

01:40:48.896 --> 01:40:52.313 align:center
May God bless you.
- Waheguru ji.

01:40:59.396 --> 01:41:00.729 align:center
The Baba was right.

01:41:30.396 --> 01:41:32.354 align:center
Stop the cart! Quick, stop it!

01:41:33.396 --> 01:41:35.813 align:center
Hail Maharaj ji. Hail Maharaj ji.

01:41:35.896 --> 01:41:37.146 align:center
I bow at your feet, Maharaj.

01:41:37.271 --> 01:41:39.271 align:center
Where have you come from,
and where are you headed?

01:41:39.313 --> 01:41:41.813 align:center
We've come from Punjab
and are heading to Bikaner.

01:41:41.896 --> 01:41:44.854 align:center
Maharaj, you are truly earning great merit.

01:41:45.271 --> 01:41:48.896 align:center
Please grace my carriage with your presence and sanctify it.

01:41:49.188 --> 01:41:52.313 align:center
Just four kilometres from here lies my beautiful village,

01:41:52.396 --> 01:41:54.063 align:center
where I have a magnificent home.

01:41:54.104 --> 01:41:55.521 align:center
All comforts and
amenities are available.

01:41:55.604 --> 01:41:57.104 align:center
And my cook prepares

01:41:57.188 --> 01:41:59.604 align:center
the finest cuisine
in the entire region.

01:41:59.688 --> 01:42:01.646 align:center
Please come and bless my home, Maharaj.

01:42:02.313 --> 01:42:04.396 align:center
You are greatly
blessed by the Almighty.

01:42:04.688 --> 01:42:06.396 align:center
You are very kind-hearted.

01:42:06.604 --> 01:42:08.354 align:center
Thank you for the feast.

01:42:08.771 --> 01:42:10.979 align:center
But we shall depart
in Almighty's grace.

01:42:12.021 --> 01:42:13.396 align:center
As you wish, Maharaj.

01:42:13.604 --> 01:42:15.688 align:center
May God bestow further grace upon you.
- Ram Ram, Maharaj.

01:42:15.771 --> 01:42:19.354 align:center
Sai Ji, we came all the way here with those cart drivers,

01:42:19.479 --> 01:42:21.146 align:center
but you said no to this man.

01:42:21.188 --> 01:42:22.646 align:center
Why is that?

01:42:23.021 --> 01:42:27.563 align:center
Young man, those cart
drivers' intention was to help.

01:42:27.771 --> 01:42:30.646 align:center
And this merchant's intent
was merely to put on a display.

01:42:31.313 --> 01:42:34.979 align:center
Showmanship arises from
a lack of self-confidence.

01:42:35.771 --> 01:42:39.563 align:center
Sweetness belongs to
the well, not to the ocean.

01:42:39.771 --> 01:42:41.604 align:center
One should not judge
a person's greatness

01:42:41.688 --> 01:42:44.438 align:center
by their wealth or
outward splendour.

01:42:45.896 --> 01:42:46.813 align:center
Yes.

01:43:27.021 --> 01:43:29.229 align:center
Sai ji, is this...

01:43:31.688 --> 01:43:34.063 align:center
Yes, this is Bikaner.

01:43:38.521 --> 01:43:42.396 align:center
Baba ji, we've come
very close to Bikaner now.

01:43:42.771 --> 01:43:44.854 align:center
My unease has only grown stronger.

01:43:46.271 --> 01:43:47.354 align:center
Will I find my father?

01:43:47.771 --> 01:43:50.063 align:center
Will my journey prove successful?

01:43:50.479 --> 01:43:53.354 align:center
Dear, this journey was

01:43:53.604 --> 01:43:55.854 align:center
never just about
finding your father.

01:43:57.188 --> 01:43:59.396 align:center
It was also about
discovering yourself.

01:44:00.188 --> 01:44:01.688 align:center
Kesar,

01:44:02.188 --> 01:44:03.271 align:center
you look rather disheartened.

01:44:03.396 --> 01:44:05.979 align:center
There is a strange sense
of unease within me.

01:44:07.271 --> 01:44:09.146 align:center
I don't understand
anything, Sai Ji.

01:44:12.313 --> 01:44:13.979 align:center
Young man, this is only natural.

01:44:14.104 --> 01:44:16.604 align:center
Union and separation
go hand in hand.

01:44:16.688 --> 01:44:18.646 align:center
That is what life is all about.

01:44:19.688 --> 01:44:23.188 align:center
Come now, your destination
is calling out to you.

01:44:45.021 --> 01:44:46.479 align:center
Your command, Sai.

01:44:46.604 --> 01:44:48.521 align:center
Where is Kale Khan’s inn located?

01:44:48.604 --> 01:44:50.063 align:center
The Kale Khan’s inn?
- Yes. Yes.

01:44:50.104 --> 01:44:52.146 align:center
That old fort in Junagarh,

01:44:52.271 --> 01:44:55.063 align:center
just beyond it, on the right-hand side,
is the Kale Khan's inn.

01:44:55.104 --> 01:44:56.479 align:center
Okay, thank you.

01:44:56.604 --> 01:44:57.729 align:center
All right, Baba Ji.
- May God bless you.

01:44:57.813 --> 01:44:58.688 align:center
Thank you.

01:44:59.104 --> 01:45:00.271 align:center
Come.
- Yes.

01:45:21.896 --> 01:45:24.271 align:center
If Almighty wills it,
we shall meet again.

01:45:24.688 --> 01:45:27.563 align:center
Perhaps this bond will endure
through our shared affection,

01:45:27.688 --> 01:45:31.563 align:center
otherwise, relationships
fall apart along the way.

01:45:32.021 --> 01:45:35.188 align:center
May the Almighty always
watch over you.

01:45:57.271 --> 01:45:59.396 align:center
Greetings, Sir.
- Greetings.

01:45:59.813 --> 01:46:02.688 align:center
Sir, have you ever
seen this person here?

01:46:06.479 --> 01:46:07.438 align:center
No.

01:46:08.688 --> 01:46:10.729 align:center
I've never seen him here.

01:46:11.813 --> 01:46:14.479 align:center
He looks after this inn.

01:46:14.604 --> 01:46:16.021 align:center
Ask him, dear.
- Okay.

01:46:16.104 --> 01:46:18.021 align:center
Thank you. - Okay.

01:46:21.604 --> 01:46:23.646 align:center
Greetings.

01:46:25.104 --> 01:46:28.104 align:center
Have you seen him here?

01:46:31.771 --> 01:46:33.188 align:center
Who are you, dear?

01:46:33.396 --> 01:46:34.938 align:center
He's my father.

01:46:40.979 --> 01:46:44.271 align:center
He was a very good man.

01:46:45.688 --> 01:46:47.021 align:center
Was?

01:46:50.521 --> 01:46:52.896 align:center
Dear! Dear...

01:47:01.604 --> 01:47:03.646 align:center
Stay strong, son.

01:47:06.479 --> 01:47:08.563 align:center
It's in Almighty's hands.

01:47:08.688 --> 01:47:11.521 align:center
Stay strong, son. Don't cry.

01:47:12.104 --> 01:47:15.563 align:center
Son, stop crying. Stop crying

01:47:16.188 --> 01:47:17.771 align:center
Don't cry.

01:47:21.771 --> 01:47:22.896 align:center
Oh, god!

01:47:42.771 --> 01:47:45.021 align:center
People stay here for a few days,

01:47:45.688 --> 01:47:47.146 align:center
then they return home.

01:47:48.479 --> 01:47:51.896 align:center
But he stayed here much longer,

01:47:54.021 --> 01:47:57.271 align:center
for nearly a year.

01:47:58.271 --> 01:48:01.646 align:center
He was a truly kind-hearted man.

01:48:02.396 --> 01:48:04.354 align:center
We grew quite
fond of each other.

01:48:04.521 --> 01:48:06.438 align:center
When he first arrived, he said,

01:48:07.188 --> 01:48:09.479 align:center
"I'm here to inspect some land"
- Yes.

01:48:09.604 --> 01:48:12.313 align:center
Then, one day, he came to me and said

01:48:12.688 --> 01:48:15.438 align:center
that his daughter had gone missing

01:48:16.104 --> 01:48:18.438 align:center
and he had come to find her.

01:48:23.021 --> 01:48:26.479 align:center
One day, he came down
with a very high fever.

01:48:29.271 --> 01:48:32.646 align:center
I cared for him as best I could,

01:48:34.396 --> 01:48:35.979 align:center
with whatever medicine

01:48:36.104 --> 01:48:38.521 align:center
and help I could provide.

01:48:39.604 --> 01:48:40.729 align:center
But I...

01:48:42.104 --> 01:48:43.938 align:center
couldn't save him.

01:48:45.271 --> 01:48:48.354 align:center
The very next day,
he departed this world.

01:48:49.688 --> 01:48:52.729 align:center
I didn't have any address,

01:48:53.104 --> 01:48:55.854 align:center
so there was no one I could inform.

01:48:57.271 --> 01:48:59.813 align:center
The day after his funeral,

01:49:00.396 --> 01:49:01.604 align:center
his daughter arrived.

01:49:03.188 --> 01:49:04.938 align:center
Sister Taaro?

01:49:06.521 --> 01:49:09.271 align:center
Where I performed his last rites,

01:49:09.604 --> 01:49:11.771 align:center
I planted a sapling there.

01:49:12.188 --> 01:49:16.021 align:center
I thought that if
anyone ever came

01:49:16.896 --> 01:49:20.854 align:center
looking for him, this sapling
would offer them some solace.

01:49:21.896 --> 01:49:23.729 align:center
Listen, Pandit ji.

01:49:24.979 --> 01:49:25.979 align:center
Yes, sir.

01:49:26.396 --> 01:49:31.021 align:center
Take this boy to the cremation ground — near that tree...

01:49:31.271 --> 01:49:33.813 align:center
where Sardar ji was cremated.

01:49:34.396 --> 01:49:35.813 align:center
Go on, son.

01:49:35.979 --> 01:49:36.979 align:center
Come with me.

01:49:39.521 --> 01:49:40.771 align:center
Come, dear.

01:50:17.313 --> 01:50:18.146 align:center
Sister, Taaro?

01:50:28.021 --> 01:50:29.354 align:center
Kesar?

01:50:32.771 --> 01:50:34.521 align:center
My brother?

01:50:55.979 --> 01:50:57.063 align:center
Kesar.

01:50:57.979 --> 01:50:59.396 align:center
Kesar.

01:51:19.313 --> 01:51:20.646 align:center
Kesar,

01:51:21.396 --> 01:51:23.479 align:center
you're exactly like Dad.

01:51:23.896 --> 01:51:25.729 align:center
Dad managed to find me,

01:51:26.604 --> 01:51:29.104 align:center
and you found both of us.

01:51:30.479 --> 01:51:31.979 align:center
Did you see Dad?

01:51:32.271 --> 01:51:34.354 align:center
Sister, did you meet Dad?

01:51:34.896 --> 01:51:36.688 align:center
I ran into dad unexpectedly

01:51:37.188 --> 01:51:38.438 align:center
near the fort.

01:51:39.479 --> 01:51:42.604 align:center
We hugged each other
and wept for a long time.

01:51:42.896 --> 01:51:44.479 align:center
We talked a lot.

01:51:47.188 --> 01:51:49.604 align:center
Dad had a fever, Kesar.

01:51:51.979 --> 01:51:54.938 align:center
Then he told me about that inn.

01:51:55.479 --> 01:51:58.813 align:center
He said he'd come again tomorrow.

01:52:01.896 --> 01:52:03.354 align:center
But he never did.

01:52:10.021 --> 01:52:13.646 align:center
The next day, I went to the inn,

01:52:15.521 --> 01:52:18.479 align:center
but dad had
already left this world.

01:52:19.521 --> 01:52:23.563 align:center
It seems he held on
to life just to see me.

01:52:23.979 --> 01:52:25.104 align:center
Just...

01:52:25.771 --> 01:52:28.021 align:center
Every month, I come here to

01:52:28.188 --> 01:52:29.604 align:center
relive the moments

01:52:30.313 --> 01:52:33.021 align:center
we shared.

01:52:35.396 --> 01:52:38.479 align:center
Sister, have you never wanted
to come back to the village?

01:52:38.604 --> 01:52:40.229 align:center
Didn't you ever feel
like coming to see us?

01:52:40.313 --> 01:52:42.896 align:center
To see me, to see grandma?

01:52:44.271 --> 01:52:46.479 align:center
There are certain
realities of life, Kesar.

01:52:46.604 --> 01:52:48.438 align:center
You're still very young.

01:52:49.979 --> 01:52:52.479 align:center
When you grow up, you'll understand

01:52:53.104 --> 01:52:55.938 align:center
that girls are often left
with very little choice.

01:52:56.604 --> 01:52:58.479 align:center
There were many times

01:52:58.896 --> 01:53:01.354 align:center
when I wanted to run away
and come back home.

01:53:02.771 --> 01:53:05.063 align:center
But then I wondered
who would accept me.

01:53:06.396 --> 01:53:08.354 align:center
My parents would still love me,

01:53:09.104 --> 01:53:11.688 align:center
but the world would
taunt me every single day.

01:53:13.188 --> 01:53:15.063 align:center
But for some reason, Kesar,

01:53:15.479 --> 01:53:17.521 align:center
I can never seem
to let go of the hope

01:53:17.979 --> 01:53:19.354 align:center
that someone from my family

01:53:19.979 --> 01:53:21.479 align:center
will come for me.

01:53:22.771 --> 01:53:24.563 align:center
I truly believe

01:53:24.771 --> 01:53:27.021 align:center
my bond with my family
cannot end like this.

01:53:57.521 --> 01:54:00.646 align:center
This locket was given to me
by my dad, wasn't it?

01:54:00.771 --> 01:54:04.021 align:center
Yes, son. Your dad put this locket
around your neck on your first Lohri.

01:54:30.104 --> 01:54:31.396 align:center
Kesar,

01:54:32.771 --> 01:54:34.979 align:center
Father told me about mother.

01:54:43.188 --> 01:54:44.313 align:center
How is Grandma?

01:54:44.479 --> 01:54:47.146 align:center
She's just getting by, Sister.

01:54:48.021 --> 01:54:50.313 align:center
All that crying has
weakened her eyesight.

01:54:50.396 --> 01:54:53.979 align:center
Kesar, how did you manage
to come all this way alone?

01:54:55.104 --> 01:54:56.896 align:center
I didn't come alone, Taaro.

01:54:57.021 --> 01:54:59.021 align:center
An ascetic, Sai Ji, came with me.

01:54:59.396 --> 01:55:02.521 align:center
He was supposed to come here,
so I accompanied him.

01:55:03.188 --> 01:55:06.271 align:center
Really? Then introduce
me to that ascetic as well.

01:55:06.604 --> 01:55:08.854 align:center
I want to thank the man

01:55:08.979 --> 01:55:11.146 align:center
who reunited me with my brother.

01:55:20.396 --> 01:55:22.646 align:center
Did you see the Sai Ji
who came with me?

01:55:22.771 --> 01:55:24.229 align:center
Yes, Sai Ji.
- Yes.

01:55:24.313 --> 01:55:25.646 align:center
I saw him just
a little while ago.

01:55:25.688 --> 01:55:27.646 align:center
He was heading along
the road to Jaisalmer. - He went that way?

01:55:27.771 --> 01:55:28.854 align:center
Yes, he went that way.

01:55:29.104 --> 01:55:30.479 align:center
Thank you.

01:56:30.479 --> 01:56:31.854 align:center
'Sai Ji,

01:56:32.104 --> 01:56:34.313 align:center
did you know I would come looking for you?

01:56:34.604 --> 01:56:35.521 align:center
Yes.

01:56:42.188 --> 01:56:43.729 align:center
And this second stone,

01:56:43.896 --> 01:56:46.688 align:center
I shall give it to you
once the journey is over.

01:57:45.021 --> 01:57:47.563 align:center
'Everything in life has two sides.'

01:57:48.188 --> 01:57:49.313 align:center
'Joy and sorrow.'

01:57:49.479 --> 01:57:50.729 align:center
'Happiness and grief,'

01:57:50.896 --> 01:57:52.271 align:center
'honour and humiliation,'

01:57:52.396 --> 01:57:54.979 align:center
'attachment and detachment,
anger and love.

01:57:55.313 --> 01:57:56.813 align:center
'The white and black stones'

01:57:56.979 --> 01:57:59.313 align:center
'are merely the two
extremes of life's spectrum.'

01:57:59.979 --> 01:58:04.229 align:center
'Life is the art of walking
the path between them.'

01:58:05.271 --> 01:58:08.771 align:center
'Whenever you find yourself
lost for direction in life,'

01:58:08.979 --> 01:58:11.604 align:center
'faced with uncertainty and
unable to make sense of things,'

01:58:11.688 --> 01:58:15.021 align:center
'focus your mind, as though
learning to see'

01:58:15.479 --> 01:58:17.188 align:center
'between two stones.'

01:58:17.604 --> 01:58:20.646 align:center
'Almighty Himself will
grant you wisdom.'

01:58:30.188 --> 01:58:31.146 align:center
Grandma,

01:58:32.188 --> 01:58:34.771 align:center
leave it.
You must be sleepy too.

01:58:35.896 --> 01:58:37.521 align:center
It's alright, my dear.

01:58:37.771 --> 01:58:40.813 align:center
I had you running
around all day today,

01:58:41.396 --> 01:58:43.063 align:center
so you must be tired.

01:58:43.188 --> 01:58:44.563 align:center
It's alright, Grandma.

01:58:44.688 --> 01:58:46.563 align:center
I'll take care of you now.

01:58:46.813 --> 01:58:48.229 align:center
I'm grown up now.

01:58:48.396 --> 01:58:51.021 align:center
Yes, you've grown into
a fine young man.

01:58:51.604 --> 01:58:53.646 align:center
Now we'll get you married,

01:58:53.813 --> 01:58:56.896 align:center
and bring your bride home
to take care of me.

01:59:01.021 --> 01:59:03.104 align:center
Kesar, let me see your hand.

01:59:03.979 --> 01:59:04.979 align:center
Here.

01:59:06.813 --> 01:59:10.188 align:center
I don't think there's even a line
bearing my name on your palm.

01:59:15.979 --> 01:59:17.604 align:center
You silly girl.

01:59:18.104 --> 01:59:21.229 align:center
First of all, there is a line.

01:59:21.771 --> 01:59:24.188 align:center
Secondly, even if there isn't,

01:59:24.479 --> 01:59:26.896 align:center
I'd still be yours, Jeeti.

01:59:35.771 --> 01:59:41.563 align:center
Son, if in your dream
a lion were chasing you,

01:59:42.604 --> 01:59:45.354 align:center
and suddenly a well
appeared before you,

01:59:47.604 --> 01:59:49.646 align:center
what would you do
in that situation?

01:59:53.313 --> 01:59:55.146 align:center
I'd wake up, Baba Ji.

01:59:56.188 --> 01:59:57.271 align:center
Hmm.

01:59:59.979 --> 02:00:01.229 align:center
Wonderful!

02:00:02.188 --> 02:00:04.771 align:center
Your journey has been fruitful.

02:00:06.104 --> 02:00:07.271 align:center
Sai Ji,

02:00:07.896 --> 02:00:09.688 align:center
I can finally see my path,

02:00:10.396 --> 02:00:12.438 align:center
the one that leads
to Grandma and Jeeti.

02:00:13.771 --> 02:00:14.854 align:center
God bless you.

02:00:18.604 --> 02:00:20.021 align:center
I'll return again very soon.

02:00:20.604 --> 02:00:22.438 align:center
I'll come to your
home bearing gifts.

02:00:30.188 --> 02:00:30.979 align:center
Bishe.

02:00:43.979 --> 02:00:45.354 align:center
Sai Ji.

02:00:54.688 --> 02:00:58.521 align:center
The pain of separation
opens the doors to wisdom

02:00:59.271 --> 02:01:03.104 align:center
and the thought of
reunion gives wings to hope.

02:01:04.604 --> 02:01:07.354 align:center
Dreams with wings are beautiful,

02:01:07.896 --> 02:01:09.813 align:center
but the most
beautiful thing of all

02:01:10.479 --> 02:01:13.771 align:center
is becoming the wings
to someone else's dream.

02:01:14.604 --> 02:01:20.354 align:center
The One who gave the beak
will also provide the grain.

02:01:20.813 --> 02:01:26.063 align:center
He will orchestrate things in a
way you never even imagined.

02:01:26.479 --> 02:01:31.438 align:center
Giver's blood is red too

02:01:31.604 --> 02:01:35.104 align:center
He does not discriminate based on caste or creed.

02:01:35.188 --> 02:01:40.063 align:center
You merely speak the words ordained by the Divine

02:01:40.396 --> 02:01:43.854 align:center
You hold no status of your own.

02:01:44.188 --> 02:01:48.938 align:center
You merely speak the words ordained by the real Divine

02:01:49.104 --> 02:01:53.604 align:center
Dear, you hold no status of your own.

02:02:04.771 --> 02:02:10.021 align:center
The flower, having broken
off the branch, will fall.

02:02:10.479 --> 02:02:15.521 align:center
Your body will crumble like sand

02:02:16.313 --> 02:02:21.646 align:center
Then spring will not come back

02:02:22.104 --> 02:02:27.438 align:center
The smile revealing white teeth will not return

02:02:28.021 --> 02:02:32.688 align:center
Everyone will be left just waving their hands in vain

02:02:33.021 --> 02:02:36.479 align:center
My friend, the last post will leave

02:02:36.521 --> 02:02:41.729 align:center
You merely speak the words ordained by the Divine

02:02:41.813 --> 02:02:45.313 align:center
Dear, you hold no status of your own

02:02:45.604 --> 02:02:50.271 align:center
You merely speak the words ordained by the real Divine

02:02:50.604 --> 02:02:55.146 align:center
Dear, you hold no status of your own

02:02:57.896 --> 02:03:04.479 align:center
Why do you cherish a life

02:03:05.604 --> 02:03:13.563 align:center
that leaves behind nothing but bones

02:03:14.604 --> 02:03:20.146 align:center
My dear, it feeds on patience and gratitude

02:03:20.896 --> 02:03:28.813 align:center
Its effect is felt in an instant.

02:03:29.271 --> 02:03:36.563 align:center
Forgetting the differences
between mine and others

02:03:37.979 --> 02:03:42.771 align:center
listen to what your heart has to say.

02:03:45.104 --> 02:03:50.479 align:center
There are many heaps of soil

02:03:50.979 --> 02:03:57.521 align:center
All of them are found in different forms.

02:03:57.896 --> 02:04:02.479 align:center
There are many heaps of soil

02:04:02.896 --> 02:04:09.188 align:center
All of them are found in different forms.

02:04:10.604 --> 02:04:16.104 align:center
Radiant faces are like a light in the world

02:04:16.271 --> 02:04:21.521 align:center
They earn their livelihood honestly.

02:04:22.188 --> 02:04:27.479 align:center
One should wear the mantle of honesty.

02:04:27.979 --> 02:04:33.021 align:center
We should speak respectfully to saints and sages

02:04:33.771 --> 02:04:42.229 align:center
Only a fortunate person attains
a pure and holy soul

02:04:42.521 --> 02:04:47.396 align:center
You merely speak the words ordained by the Divine

02:04:47.688 --> 02:04:51.229 align:center
Dear, you hold no status of your own

02:04:51.479 --> 02:04:56.063 align:center
You merely speak the words ordained by the real Divine

02:04:56.396 --> 02:05:00.563 align:center
Dear, you hold no status of your own
