Saint
Takhat Lal Saheb had three sons – 1. Jessa Ram Saheb who was a born
yogi, 2. Tansukh Ram Saheb and 3. Chela Ram Saheb. Yogishwar Jessa Ram
Saheb was away from these worldly affairs, hence, Tansukh Ram Saheb
assumed the Shadani Gaddi in 1839.
Saint Tansukhram was a great singer and preached through Bhajans. He was
quite sweet and oblidging in nature. He ran Shadani Darbar on foot prints
of his predecessors. He had very melodious voice and used to sing in the
praise of God. All the people liked his good nature and services to
Shadani Darbar.
One day Saint Tansukhram Saheb went to village Darro at invitation of Bhai
Hazariram along with Bhai Khottaram, Bhai Madhuram and Bhai Pahlaj Ram.
Public requested holy verses to be sung by them. This lasted for whole
night. In the early morning hours, some villages from village Thikratta
requested that holy Kirtan in praise of God maybe continued. Saint
Tansukhram Saheb ordered Bhai Madhu Ram and Bhai Pahlaj Ram to comtinue
the same, but they showed inability due to tiredness.
The Saint told them if they could not sing now, they could not be able to
sing forever. The Saint asked Bhai Khotaram to sing in praise of God. He
obeyed the ordered and satisfied all the audience. Saint blessed Bhai
Khotaram that he would be known all the world over.
One day, a villager came to the shop of Saint Tansukhram for the purchase
of 20 kgs cotton. Saint told him to weigh the cotton and to take it from
the inner godown. Villager became dishonest. Instead of 20 kgs cotton, he
took 22 kgs of cotton. After making payment for 20 kgs, he went to his
home , he again put the cotton on the weighing scale. To his great
surprise he found the cotton to be 18 kgs. Again he came to the shop of
Saint Tansukhram and he became angry by saying, that weighing scale of
shop was defective. Tansukhram asked him to bring his own weighing
instrument from his own house and went inside the godown. Again he
dishonesty took 24 kgs of cotton on weighing scale and found it 16 kgs.
He was very much
surprised and he told his elder brother regarding this incident. His elder
brother told him, that Saint Tansukhram was a godly person and why he had
cheated him. He immediately rushed to Saint Tansukhram amd fell on his
feet and begged for mercy. Saint Tansukhram forgave him and asked to take
cotton with correct weight. He followed the instructions of Saint and went
away.
In 1804 (Shadani Sambat 96, pohh2, Shukla 15) Saint Tansukhram was born at
Hayat Pitafi. In 1852 Saint Tansukhram handed over Gaddi to his wife Pujya
Hassi Devi and left for heavenly abode.
