Description

Mana, a hard-working and devout Sikh of Guru Angad, served in the langar of the Guru's kitchen. But due to Mana's hard work, he became conceited and thought there was no other hardworking sewak in the Darbar of the Guru. Though Mana did his duty well, he became very rude and didn't hesitate to abuse other Sikhs.

Sikhs complained to Guru Angad about the behavior of Mana. Guru Angad spoke with Mana and asked him to treat all Sikhs alike and to improve his behavior and attitude.

Hearing such words from the Guru, Mana became even more rash and cursed and abused the Sikhs that had complained about him.

 The Sikhs told Guru Angad that Mana's behavior was becoming worse. This time the Guru called a congregation and summoned Mana. Guru Angad asked why Mana had not been serving everyone as instructed. Mana said, that he is Guru’s Sikh and will only do what Guru orders him to and that he was no one else’s servant. Upon hearing, Guru Angad decided to test Mana and asked him to leave the duties of Langar, gather some firewood, go to the forest and cremate himself.

Accordingly, Mana collected wood, went to the forest, and made a pyre. But on setting fire and seeing the flames Mana got scared and did not relish the idea of death. Meanwhile, a thief arrived and asked the reason the great fire had been lit. Mana related his whole story. The thief on hearing of the Guru Angad's greatness began to repent and concluded that, at last, he had an opportunity of wiping out the sins of his past life. He handed over the casket of gems to Mana and in exchange sat on the pyre. The fire left the thief unharmed who thereafter became a Sikh and joined the Sangat at Khadoor Sahib. Meanwhile, Mana went to the bazaar to sell the gems and was arrested on suspicion of having stolen them and was hanged following a trial.
