Dev Puri in this Pankiti actually means Gurdev-Puri. This Savaiya is the last of the Bhatt Savaiyas and informs us of what occurred in Sachkhand when Siri Guru Raamdaas jee went there. It was the will of Parmeshar Vaheguru that Siri Guru jee went to Sachkhand, and Hari Vaheguru Himself accorded a throne for Siri Guru jee and had Him sit there.
The last 4 Pankitis now talk about the scene of Maatlok (this world). The whole world, including the Devtas, rejoiced the action of Siri Guru Raamdaas jee of installing Siri Guru Arjun Dev jee on the throne of Guruship. They cried out Jai Jai while beholding the amazing scene. The demons ran away from the sight. Such people who got Siri Guru Raamdaas Sahib jee as their Guru, all their sins got washed away.
The above is based on Bhai Sahib Randhir Singh jee’s explanation of this Pauri.
Secret Gupt Story behind this Pauri
Once Giani Nahar Singh jee asked Bhai Sahib Randhir Singh jee about this Pauri. Bhai Sahib replied that this Pauri alludes to a secret incident that occurred at the time Siri Guru Raamdaas jee went to Sachkhand. It so occurred that as per the Will of Siri Vaheguru jee, Siri Guru Raamdaas jee went to the abode of Raja Indra i.e. in the heaven on His way to Sachkhand. The Devas greatly rejoiced the visit by Satguru jee because it’s such a rare occurrence. Furthermore, since Guru Sahib went to that area where heaven is, the hells too were affected by this visit. The suffering inhabitants of the hells were released by the demons (Asurs) because the visit of Guru Sahib in that area brought such a wave of divine rays that the sins of the inhabitants of hells were washed away, and the demons left them. Many hells were emptied as a result of this.
Guru Sahib knows the details of such incidents. The above is based on a very terse and brief account of this incident as narrated by Bhai Sahib Randhir Singh jee to Giani Nahar Singh jee.
