Dhanna Seth, or Dhanna Bhagat or Dhanna Jaat, was incontestably one of the topmost addicts of Lord Krishna. He was born in a poor Jaat husbandry family and latterly came a symbol of strong devotion and pure- hearted faith. His life’s story — a planter’s son to the godly sucker whom Lord Krishna showed — still turns on millions of addicts’ hearts.

Background and Early Life

Dhanna Seth was born on April 20, 1415, in a Jaat family in the Rajasthan area. The occupation of his father was tilling, and his mama was looking after the cattle. Dhanna was a simple and innocent boy when he was little. still, the boy’s life changed when the family clerk, Pandit Trilochan, who had been on a passage, visited their house. The clerk was devoted to the deification of a Shaligram Shila( a sacred gravestone embodying Lord Vishnu) and would do so in an exemplary manner. One day, when the youthful boy saw the clerk doing it, he was veritably important fascinated, and so he developed a great desire to serve God as the clerk did.

The launch of Devotion – The Stone as God

When Pandit Trilochan was about to leave, Dhanna requested him for the Shaligram gravestone. The clerk, who saw the boy’s ingenuousness, gave him an ordinary black gravestone and said that it was rather of the boy’s “ Thakur Ji ”. Dhanna, not knowing the distinction at each, accepted it with all his heart and began to give it the deification of his great- heartedness.

Every day, he offered his gravestone- god simple refections of bajra roti and jaggery, refusing to eat until “ Thakur Ji ” accepted the food. He stayed empty for three days because he did n’t eat. On the fourth day, moved by Dhanna’s faith and gashes, Lord Krishna appeared before him, entered the immolation, and gave him a blessing. hereafter, Dhanna and Krishna were inseparably linked by godly love — Lord Krishna would frequently come to play with Dhanna’s cows and share food with him in the fields.

Meeting Guru Ramanandacharya

One day, Lord Krishna communicated to Dhanna that the real spiritual connection is through a practitioner and directed him to Kashi to take advice from Jagadguru Ramanandacharya. Dhanna followed, got the inauguration, and came his convert at the age of 15. Ramanandacharya granted him a boon and directed him to do so as his parents continued tilling and participating devotion with others.

The phenomenon of Faith – Beach Turns into Grain

Dhanna returned to his vill and started serving and also feeding holy men and saints. But his father was n't veritably happy with this and said that they could n't go the diurnal visits of the saints. When one day Dhanna was to sow wheat in the fields, he came upon a group of monks. A pure- hearted person, he not only vended the wheat meant for sowing but also used the plutocrat to feed them and therefore sowed beach in his fields. Lo and behold, the beach turned into a golden crop of wheat, fiftyfold of the usual size, and was sprouting. This miraculous event made everyone believe that Dhanna’s devotion had won God’s grace.

God’s Test and the Tumba Miracle

In the period of a ruinous shortage, Dhanna unflinchingly fed not only the townies but also the godly bones
, giving down all that he held. Lord Krishna, to test his faith, appeared before him as a saint and handed Dhanna a single seed for planting. Everyone laughed at him, but Dhanna went ahead and planted it. veritably soon, big tumba( gourd) shops came up in his fields. Cutting them open, he set up them filled with precious jewels, plums, and gems rather of seeds. Dhanna used this wealth to run langars( free kitchens) and to make tabernacles, wells, and harbors for the indigent — therefore earning the title “ Dhanna Seth, ” the richest man in both material and spiritual terms.

heritage of Dhanna Bhagat

The hymns and verses of Dhanna are still alive in the Guru Granth Sahib, wherein his dedication is praised as unalloyed and selfless. moment, a grand Gurdwara in Dhunakala stands in his honor, visited by people of all faiths. His story teaches that true devotion does n’t depend on rituals or riches but on a sincere heart full of love for God.
