 In 1783 (Shadani
Sambat 75, Bhado 26, Shukla paksh 9) Saint
Takhat Lal was born at Mathelo. At the age
of 16 he became the 3rd Saint of Shadani
Darbar. He was hardly 7 years old when he
was blessed by Saint Shadaram Saheb that he
would be available and present everywhere
and whensoever he desired.
After assuming Gaddi, His name became famous
and people used to compare him, with Raja
Harishchandra, Raja Vikrmaditya and Danveer
Karan. He also ran a shop for his
livelihood, At evening, he used to come to
Darbar and perform meditation and serve the
hungry cows. One night, a Yatri (Pilgrim)
came at Shadani Darbar and knocked at the
door. Saint Takhat Lal opened the door and
allowed him to come inside. He served him
with meals, Yatri (guest) went outside, he
went to the bazzar-ground, where he found
Saint Takhat Lal singing in the praise of
God in crowds. He was very surprised. He
again rushed to Shadani Darbar and knocked
at the door. Again he found Saint Takhat Lal
talking with other disciples and he welcomed
him to come inside. Yatri found him at both
places at the same time. He was very much
surprised as to how one man could remain
present at different places which were quite
far off from one another.
In another instance, one Brahmanchari Sadhu
who had came from Haridwar, after visiting
Shadani Darbar he told, the people about
Saint Takhat Lal that he had seen him taking
bat at Holy Ganga river daily at Haridwar
and he was quite surprised to see him here.
The other people in Darbar told the Sadhu
that Saint Takhat Lal had been there since4
he was only 3 years old and he had never
been to Haridwar. The Sadhu bowed before
Saint Tkhat Lal and became his follower.
In Feb 1839, Saint Takhat Lal proceeded to
Amritsar where he went to heavenly abode
near coalser pond which is situated in
Golden Temple Amritsar. At present the same
place is called as Sitalani Dera, Chowk Baba
Saheb, where Mahat Gurumukh Singh is living
and serving.
