Sher Singh and the Moghul leader

One morning after EMS (please see http://seekerofone.blogspot.com/2008/09/beware-of-ems.html for the dangers of doing this Early Morning Sadhana/meditation), Sher Singh was travelling into the forest. He was drowning in the spiritual bliss of SatNaam and walked right into a Mughal soldier's ambush (yet another danger of using the EMS drug - you walk into Mughal soldier's ambushes).

Since he was an adept saint-soldier, he had no problem escaping the trap. The Mughal leader called out to him, "I have heard much about the Khalsa and their Guru - come and show me what your Guru has taught you!"

Listening to the challenge to his Guru - Guru Gobind Singh ji - Sher Singh could not resist the Mughal's call.

So he returned.

The Mughal growled, "We will each show our swordsmanship - the winner will walk free."

Sher Singh agreed. They stood a few feet apart. First, the Mughal took his sharp sword and with "whooshs" filling the air, managed to unhook Sher Singh's battledress clean off.

All the other Mughals soldiers were impressed - they shouted something in ALL CAPS.

Then Sher Singh took out his sword and a few "whooshs" later, re-sheathed it. Apparently no damage had been done to the Mughal leader.

The Mughal smirked, "What good is that?!"

Sher Singh suggested, "Move your head..."

The Mughal leader turned his head and lo and behold, it came clean off his body.
