Guru Har Rai Ji was a gentle soul. Though he kept the outside look of a warrior, it’s his inside spirit that made him a true warrior.

One time, as a child, the tender aged Har Rai Ji was coming back from horse riding. He saw his divine grandpa, Guru Hargobind Ji. Har Rai Ji’s eyes lit up, “Grandfather!” He got off his horse and skipped over to the Guruji who was meditating in the flower garden.” Har Rai Ji always loved to be in his grandfather's spiritual presence. The scene was very beautiful and spiritual.

Har Rai Ji was wearing a regal robe, a chola, like a warrior prince. He got lost in his excitement and accidentally caught the thorn of a rose bush with the cuff of his chola. He didn’t notice right away but the cloth pulled on the thorn, ripped the chola a little, and jostled the flowers. The petals of the rose broke off and fell to the ground. When Har Rai ji saw what he had done, that his carelessness had caused harm to another living being, He began to cry.

A Sikh who had been watching all this told Guru Hargobind Ji who came over to provide comfort. The Guru’s warm voice always seemed to make things right, “The creator has made this whole creation. To serve god, we should take care of the creation.” The Guru’s words brought clarity to his mind, “Think of this as a warriors lesson. A warrior must first master themselves as they walk their path through the world.” Then Guru Ji gently added, “Keep wearing the chola, just lift it out of the way when needed. It is good for God’s servants to be gentle with all beings.”

These teachings impacted sweet Har Rai Ji's deep in his heart. Though he was always prepared for a defensive battle he held a deep gentleness sacredly in his heart. His life was dedicated to being kind to all beings. He would sometimes say, “A place of worship can be rebuilt and repaired, but not a broken heart.” 

Later, it became clear that Har Rai Ji would become the next Guru. Guruship was passed on to him when he was only 14 years old. Even though he was a young man, he was spiritually very mature. He conquered his own mind and was a living channel for Guru Nanak. His presence was full of light!

Guru Har Rai Ji always said, “Everyone’s heart is a jewel, it’s not good to break it. If you long to see the Beloved Lord, never hurt anyone’s feelings.”
