One day when Sant Baba Attar Singh Ji was visiting the city of Hyderabad, in the province of Sind, he happened to pass by the local mental institution. Sant Ji expressed a desire to see the mentally sick people who resided in that instituion.

A Singh who was with Sant Ji went and asked the person in charge of the hospital if Sant Ji could come and visit the patients. The person in charge of the hospital had heard about the greatness of Sant Attar Singh Ji and was therefore more than happy to let this flower of Dhan Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj enter and bless that place with his presence.

When Sant Ji first went inside the hospital, the patients were making all kinds of noises and doing all sorts of things which any normal person would not do. Sant Ji immediately sat down on the floor and began to do kirtan.

As soon as Gurbani began to resound throughout the hospital every single patient came and sat around Sant Ji with their eyes closed and their minds completely focused on the shahbad. When Sant Ji had finished doing Kirtan he did an ardas to Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj, the king of kings and the saint of saints. At the conclusion of this ardas Sant Ji told the man in charge that Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj has done his most amazing kirpa and had cured all the patients of all their maladies.

Many doctors who were working at the hospital at the time who had witnessed this event came and examined each patient individually. To their amazement every single patient was completely cured. All of them were subsequently discharged and sent home.
