Bhai Durga was a dedicated Sikh of the time of Guru Angad Sahib. Once he, along with Bhai Jiwanda and Bhai Lalu, visited Guru Sahib and asked Guru Sahib for sermons. Guru Sahib told them that there was nothing to match the acts of goodwill and generosity. We should always be ready to help the others and not think for ourselves only. We should earn honestly and share with the others. We should always pray for the welfare of the whole of the humanity. Bhai Durga and his companions spent the whole of their life as per the instructions of Guru Sahib. Bhai Durga came to be known as Parupkari (one who is ever-ready to do good to others).
