About this episode

This episode explores the concept of true humility through the story of Bhai Ram Das Ji and the importance of love over status in the Guru's house.

Send us Fan Mail When Bhai Ram Das Ji was mocked for serving like a laborer, he did not defend himself—he bowed even lower. In this episode, we explore what true humility looks like, how ego blinds us, and how the Almighty blesses those who remain sincere on the path of seva. A powerful reminder that in the Guru’s house, love—not status—defines greatness. Music- Puratan Shabad kirtan https://www.instagram.com/sikh_history_sakhi/ https://www.sikhhistorysakhi.com/
