Aradhivani Prasad:

Giving 'Bodh' to Harjibhati, Siddha 'Ramdevji' Pir says: (Some lines)

'If you do bhagati, please understand the difference

And let me say hello to that sermon

Dharam is old, Harji, Nijarpanth Adi,

Being a great sage, you are a palace ...

You burn the seeds of lust before you plead,

You think of the Guru's promise in your mind

Break the gender, heal the plea price

You awaken the action of yoga

You can cure Manda disorders

Satya thai, you play in satya

Sawai re is always like that. '

How easy the speech is ... gentle ... smooth! Accurate! A divine experience! The life-poems of saintly men and women 'Vel' (in hymns) are sung even today.

In the composition of Khimara Kotwal, which shows the 'tech' for morality, when the king of Dheldi is greedy in the form of Dalalde, the devotee woman tells his lord Khimara to take Samadhi while living by repenting. Then the king himself repents and begs Santakhimara to show him the way of devotion. Rano Ranshi takes the teachings of Guru to Khimra Kotwal.
