GURDWARA
SHRI PATTHAR SAHIB: The Shrine known as Gurdwara
Patthar sahib is situated about 25 kms. Short of Leh town on the Leh-Srinagar
road. Built in the everlasting memory of Shri Guru Nanak Deve Ji the great
prophet who sanctified the place by his sacred visit during the year 1517 while
on his second missionary tour (2nd Udassi 1515-1518). The Guru reached here via
Nepal, Sikkim, Tibet Yarkand and Leh after having spiritual discourses with the
sidhas at Mount Sumer (Central Himalayas). On the hill features across the
road, there used to live a wicked demon that terrorized the people of the area.
Their miseries multiplied day by day. As their miseries became unbearable they
prayed for divine help. It is said that the Great Guru heard their woes and
came to their rescue. The Guru settled down on the bank of the river flowing
nearby. The people sought for help and the Guru blessed the people and became
very popular in the area. The locals called him as Nanak Lama. The Demon got
enraged and started making plans to kill Guru Nanak. One morning, when the Guru
was sitting in meditation, he rolled down a big boulder from the hilltop with
the aim of killing the Guru. But on the very touch of Guru’s body, the solid
rock melted like wax and Guru’s back got embedded on it like a cushion. The
Guru kept on sitting in meditation undisturbed. Thinking that the Guru must
have been killed, the demon came down but was taken aback on seeing the Guru in
meditation, undisturbed. With a rage of anger he tried to push the rock with
his right foot but the rock had already became like wax his foot also got
embedded into it. On this , he realized his folly and powerlessness as compared
to the spiritual power of the Great Guru. He fell on the feet of Guru and
humbly prayed to be pardoned. The Guru advised him to get rid of his wickedness
and lead the life of a nobel person, in the service of humanity. This changed
the life style of demon and he started serving the people. The Guru there after
continued his Holy journey towards Srinagar and Kashmir via Kargil.
The boulder having imprint of the Guru’s back is
lying in the Gurdwara to this day.
