Sri Guru Angad Dev Ji‟s previous name was Bhai Lehna Ji. Bhai Lehna Ji‟s father, Bhai Pheru Mal Ji, was employed as the treasurer to the Governor of Ferozepur (i&rojpur). His mother‟s name was Mata Daya Kaur Ji. Bhai Pheru Mal Ji gave Bhai Lehna Ji a good education. At the age of fifteen, Bhai Lehna Ji married Bibi Khivi Ji in the village of Khadur. In 1524 AD, Bhai Pheru Mal Ji moved to Khadur and opened a store there. Bhai Pheru Mal Ji was a devout worshipper of the goddess Durga. Every year he would take other villagers with him to visit the goddess Durga‟s temple. After Bhai Pheru Mal Ji died in 1526, Bhai Lehna Ji started leading the group of villagers. In 1532, on his way to Jawala Ji, Bhai Lehna Ji decided to visit Kartarpur. He had heard from Bhai Jodh Ji that Guru Nanak Dev Ji lived there. He had heard Bhai Jodh Ji singing the Gurbani of Guru Nanak Dev Ji and wanted to meet Him. Bhai Lehna Ji decided to go to Jawala Ji via Kartarpur Sahib. When his party reached near Kartarpur Sahib, Bhai Lehna Ji asked them to wait at the nearby village, and He Himself rode towards Kartarpur Sahib to visit Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji. The all-knowing (jwxI jwx) Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji came to the outskirts of Kartarpur Sahib to greet Bhai Lehna Ji. But Bhai Lehna Ji Page 4 gurmiq isiKAw did not recognize Guru Nanak Dev Ji since he had never seen Guru Sahib before. Bhai Lehna Ji asked Guru Sahib the way to the Dharamsala (now known as Gurdwara Sahib) where Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji recited Gurbani. Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji said, “Please follow me. I am also going there." When they reached the door of the Dharamsala, Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji said to Bhai Lehna Ji, "Please fasten your mare to the stake and go in through that door." When Bhai Lehna Ji entered the door, he was surprised to see that the One who had shown him the way earlier, was actually Guru Nanak Dev Ji. Bhai Lehna Ji felt sorry and fell at Guru Sahib‟s feet and said, “It was my fault that l was riding and You were walking." As Bhai Lehna Ji placed his forehead on Guru Sahib‟s feet, he was blessed with Naam Simran and bliss.
