Here warriors of the Brar clan received payment for the services they had rendered to the Guru. One who declined was Bhai Dan Singh. To quote an old chronicle. MaJva Desh Ratan di Sakhi Pothi, "Bestow on me sikkhi (the Sikh faith), if you please; I have no other desire," begged he. The Guru administered to him the rites of initiation.
