Bhai Jiwa, a resident of Khadur Sahib, was a dedicated Sikh of the time of Guru Angad Sahib. He used to bring Khichari (rice mixed with lentils) and curd for Langar. He used to perform this service every day. One day it was raining. Soon, a strong wind began blowing. Bhai Jiwa thought he won’t be able to deliver Khichari and curds safely. He made prayers to the Almighty to stop rain and wind so that he may be able to deliver the food to Guru Sahib. At this the storm and the rain stopped and Bhai Jiwa was able to deliver food. That day Guru Sahib did not eat Khichari. Bhai Jiwa asked Guru Sahib why did he not eat Khichari. Guru Sahib told him tat God’s Will should not be intervened. He knows what to do and when to do. We should always bow before His Will. According to another source it was Bibi Jiwai, the daughter of Bhai Jiwa, who had made prayer to God to stop rain and wind so that she might be able to deliver food. According to this source, after the death of Bhai Jiwa, his daughter continued serving Khichari and curds for the Langar.
