Sree Guru Hargobind Sahib jee Maharaj, during his stay at Daroli Bhai kee, one day went for Horse riding in nearby Jungles. As Satguru Jee and Jatha of Sikhs reached the jungle, there came a heavy sound, like of a trumpet. The sound was coming from bushes nearby, and as Sikhs moved forward to see what was making noise, they saw a large python lying in bushes and groaning with pain. Sree Guroo Sahib jee rode his horse towards the big snake and ordered a Sikh to kill it and relieve it of its pain. A Sikh moved forward and killed the snake, and as he died, Guroo Sahib jee smiled. The Gursikhs asked Guroo Sahib jee, from your smile, we can understand that there is a game of higher realms which has been played here, which we lowly jeevs don’t understand. Please enlighten us about what has happened.
Sree Guru Hargobind Sahib jee Maharaj smiled and said, Beloved Gursikho, this snake was a human in previous birth and pretended to be a holy man, a Sant, and looted hundreds of thousands of people of their money, their honour and their faith in his previous life. He was not a Satguru or Saint, but with help of Ridhi-Sidhi accumulated with power of Jap-tap, he pretended to be one. But he couldn’t liberate himself or his disciples and due to his greed of money, he came back in form of a Snake. The Sikhs asked Saacheh Paatshaaha jeeo , if he couldn’t liberate himself and his disciples, where are his disciples? Sree Guroo Sahib jee asked a Sikh to turn snake’s body upside down with his spear and Sikh did same. There were thousands of ants and worms who were eating up snake’s body, causing him pain. Sree Guroo Sahib jee said ‘ these ants and worms are the disciples of this fake guru who have come back in form of these worms to extract what he had looted from them in previous life’.

ਕਬੀਰ ਸਾਚਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਕਿਆ ਕਰੈ ਜਉ ਸਿਖਾ ਮਹਿ ਚੂਕ ॥
ਅੰਧੇ ਏਕ ਨ ਲਾਗਈ ਜਿਉ ਬਾਂਸੁ ਬਜਾਈਐ ਫੂਕ ॥158॥Kabeer, what can the True Guru do, when His Sikhs are at fault?
The blind do not take in any of His Teachings; it is as useless as blowing into bamboo.
ਖਸਮੁ ਛੋਡਿ ਦੂਜੈ ਲਗੇ ਡੁਬੇ ਸੇ ਵਣਜਾਰਿਆ ॥
ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਹੈ ਬੋਹਿਥਾ ਵਿਰਲੈ ਕਿਨੈ ਵੀਚਾਰਿਆ ॥Those dealers who abandon their Lord and Master and attach themselves to another, are drowned.
The True Guru is the boat, but few are those who realize this.
