Our next podcast takes place in Tulamba, focusing on a man named Sajjan and an inn he ran for travelers to stay overnight. Over time, Sajjan began engaging in a very unhealthy habit, which negatively affected travelers. He was stealing personal items from the rooms where the travelers were staying. What started as a means of keeping things left behind when the travelers left quickly turned into him going right into their rooms and stealing it while staying at the inn.
Guru ji and Bhai Mardana decided to stay at Sajjan’s inn while traveling through Tulamba. Sajjan was thrilled, mostly because he had this sense that Guru ji was wealthy. His goal was to rob Guru ji.
