![]() Guru Nanak Dev Ji, ever loving and compassionate, freed the girls at once. ![]() Finally, she gave up and told Guru Nanak, "You are a great magician! Please free my sisters and teach me your magic!" She tried to do magic to help them and even her magic couldn’t work! Then she tried to do magic against Guru Nanak but that didn't work either. She was surprised to see her sisters’ magic had been totally blocked. She came to the city well to see for herself what was going on. ![]() The girls tried several other spells and whatever they tried to do was reversed back on them.Ī woman who was watching became alarmed and ran to tell the Queen of Kamrup what was happening. The other girl tried to defend her friend and raised her arm to cast a different spell, but her arm just froze in the air and she couldn't move it. Instead, the spell was reversed and it was she who began barking like a dog. One of them tried to cast a spell on Guru Nanak, she said, “Bark like a dog!” But it did nothing to Guru Ji. The magic girls saw them coming and decided to turn them in to animals too. Guru Nanak sensed something was going on with Mardana and so he and Bala started walking towards the city. He immediately got on all fours and started bleating, "Baaah, baah, baah." Other people who were watching started to laugh. They both laughed and the other said, "Let's turn him into one!" So she performed magic on the unsuspecting Mardana by putting a thread around his neck. One of them said, "He sounds like a sheep, he's bleating like a sheep!" But when he answered they thought he sounded funny because he spoke a different language. They asked him who he was and where he came from. While he was there, some girls saw him and were curious about him. Mardana found the city well and started filling his water containers. While Bala stayed with him Mardana went ahead into the city to find food and drink. When Guru Nanak reached the outskirts of the city he sat down under a tree and began meditating. Once they were in a remote part of India called Kamrup where the people were famous for their devotion to black magic. His companions Bala and Mardana always traveled with him. ![]() Guru Nanak traveled all over India to spread the word of God, and he walked everywhere on foot.
