After teaching a lesson to Pandit Lal Chand, the Guru Harkrishan asked the devotees to return back. When all the disciples left Panjokhara then the Guru marched towards Delhi.
<br/><br/>From Panjokhara He reached Lakhnaur. Staying one night in village named 'More' they arrived at Shahbad.
<br/><br/>Leaving Shahbad they reached Kurukshetra and camped there.
<br/><br/>When the disciples of that area heard about the arrival of the Guru, they flocked to pay a homage to the Guru.
<br/><br/>The congregation of the village Ladwa under leadership of Udo also arrived there.
<br/><br/>Bhai Udo was that Sikh who helped Bhai Jaita to carry away the holy head of Guru Tegh Bahadur from Chandni Chowk to Anandpur Sahib.
<br/><br/>The Guru stayed at Kurkshetra for two days.
<br/><br/>On the third day, when He started his journey all the devotees followed him.
<br/><br/>The Guru asked them many times to return back but they requested the Guru to let them to enjoy his company. The number of devotees was increasing stage by stage.
<br/><br/>The disciples of Panipat and Sonipat also accompanied the Guru upto Delhi.
<br/><br/>When Raja Jai Singh was informed about the arrival of the Guru, he came to receive the Guru accompanied by his officers and Sikh devotees.
<br/><br/>The Guru asked his devotees to go to their villages. They all returned back.
<br/><br/>Raja Jai Singh took the Guru, his Mother Krishan and other honourable disciples to his Bunglow. They stayed in one separate portion of the Banglow.
<br/><br/>After two days Raja Jai Singh met the Guru and said, 'My Lord! King Aurangzeb wants to meet you. Where would you be like to adjoin?'
<br/><br/>The Guru said boldly, 'At the time of departure I had already told your minister Paras Ram that I would not meet King Aurangzeb at any cost. Neither I will attend the Darbar nor do I allow seeing him at your Banglow. Your minister had assured me that you would not ask me to meet King Aurangzeb.'
<br/><br/>Raja Jai Singh and his courtiers were astounded by hearing such bold reply from young Guru. They were amazed to see such a determination of the Guru. They did not try to persuade him.
<br/><br/>Raja Jai Singh had a great respect of the Guru, but he was forced by King Aurangzeb to ask the Guru.
