Bulleh Shah's meditation

"Those who do not forget the Lord, with each breath and morsel of food, whose minds are filled with the Mantra of the Lord's Name they alone are blessed; O Nanak, they are the perfect Saints. (1)" (SGGS p 319)

Once Baba Bulleh Shah was sitting on bank of river when he saw this lady selling carrots. People were coming to buy her produce, but when they start picking and choosing she would say, "I only sell carrots in volumes; there is no pick and choose." So all these people had to buy carrots in volume/in bulk; not by selection.

Then there was this handsome man, who came to her to get carrots. However, this time she herself picked the best carrots for him! Bulleh Shah was quite surprised looking at the incident.

She replied, "Bulleh Shah ji, he is my husband, there is no counting or accounting between lovers." ....More
