From Aloarakh, Guru Teg Bahadur ji reaches the village of Tode. The village of Tode is today known as Bhavanigarh. Bhavanigarh is a very large town. Bhavanigarh is about 2 km from Aloarakh. Gurdwara Sahib of the Ninth Patshahi is adorned here. The Gurdwara is managed by the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee. About the history of the place, Sardar Inderjit Singh, the manager of Gurdwara Sahib, came to know that this place has the touch of Guru Teg Bahadur ji. At this place, Guru Teg Bahadur ji, at the request of the King of Assam, arranged a pilgrimage. At that time Guru Ji reached this place via Gunike, Aloarkh. Guru Teg Bahadur ji stayed at this place for 2 days. He had preached Naam Bani to the Sangat. The sangat at this place celebrate the day of Sangranad with great devotion. And obtain the happiness of the Guru’s house.

Lots of sangat here is associated with Naam Bani. The entire city of Bhavanigarh comes to this place and makes its life successful by connecting with Naam Bani. From here Guru Teg Bahadur ji walks on to the village of Phaguvala. Gurdwara Sahib is adorned on the road from Sunam to Barnala just outside the village of Phaguvala . There is also a Sarovar Sahib. Here a Pandit came to Guru Sahib Ji and begged Guru Sahib Ji to have mercy on me. Guru Sahib Ji taught that Pandit –
“Thapia na jai Kita na hoi,
Aape aap Niranjan soi”
Meaning God is not made by anyone. Guru Sahib Ji preached-
“Jo paathar ki panhi Pai,
Tis ki ghal ajanhi jai”
That means do Bandagi of an Akal Purakh. Rise above rituals and serve humanity. Work, chant the Name and share. Apply these principles of Guru Nanak Sahib Ji in your life. Guru Sahib said that-
“Bhai kahu ko det nah
Nah Bhai manat aan “
Guru Sahib Ji asked to continue this tradition. Do not be afraid of anyone and keep your life high and pure and remain engaged in the Lord’s Bandagi. While Guru Teg Bahadur ji was giving this sermon, the sangat of the nearby village Gharachon came and made a request. The sangat of many villages came to Guru Sahib and begged him to make his life successful. The sangat of the village came from the house and requested that we the people of the village are very compelled. You see our compulsion and set foot in our village and stop the pressure on us.
