Sardar Aroor Singh was a genuine seeker after truth. He had thirsted for spiritual truths ever since he was very young. There was even a time when he had left home and gone into the forests to lead the life of an ascetic. However he had found no satisfaction, and ultimately his parents had brought him back home.
When he heard that Shri Babaji Bhagwan was in Amritsar his soul thrilled with an invisible recognition. He rushed for the darshan of Shri Babaji Bhagwan and was instantly converted to him. The divine recognition from within him was overwhelming. He became so devoted to Shri Babaji Bhagwan that he would never leave his side. It was a relationship that was to last forever. He remained steadfast in his devotion to Shri Babaji Bhagwan even during those severe times when Shri Babaji Bhagwan had imposed harsh trials and tribulations upon himself.
Aroor Singh would frequently say: “Everything that we have– our wealth, our honour, our status, our peace and comfort–everything is Shri Babaji Bhagwan!”
Aroor Singh would try to remain happy in the will of Shri Babaji Bhagwan in all the circumstances of life. Shri Babaji Bhagwan, on his part, loved him intensely. He had entered within the heart of this young man and made him his own.
At times, Aroor Singh would say: “Babaji has everything with himself! We are all his children and are proud of the fact!”
Sardar Aroor Singh served Shri Babaji Bhagwan with great faith and devotion and perseverance. In every word that he uttered there was the divine touch of Shri Babaji Bhagwan.
One day Shri Babaji Bhagwan said to him in a light vein: “Beta! Son! Leave me and go away! Lead your own life!”
Aroor Singh immediately replied: “I shall do as you order, Bhagwan! But tell me which place must I go to where you do not exist!”
Shri Babaji Bhagwan began to laugh. He had merely been testing his young devotee. And the two continued to be together for a long time. It was a relationship that was to continue for years afterwards with Shri Nathji as well, in whom Aroor Singh had full faith.
