The first and highly respected Sant to bless Raharki Sahib with his divine and godly presence was Aad Satguru, Sant Sai Khotaram Sahib. Sant Sai Khotaram Sahib was a holy man, widely revered as a highly esteemed Sant with great spiritual powers, and was deeply respected by people across Sindh. He dedicated himself to helping the poor and the needy. When he sang Gurbani in his melodious voice, it had a touching and spellbinding effect on his listeners, who sat absorbed hearing his divine voice.
During a famine that struck several villages in Sindh, farmers and Zamindars turned to Saijan for help. In response, Saijan summoned the Panchayats and appealed to the Zamindars to contribute 5 kgs of their crop per head to feed the poor and needy. However, one Zamindar named Surajmal refused, citing the difficulty of taking such a responsibility during a famine, and left.
The next day, the Zamindars returned to Sai Khotaram Sahib and prostrated themselves before him, begging for his forgiveness. When Saijan asked them what had caused them to change their minds, they explained that they had been unable to sleep peacefully after refusing to obey his request. They had all experienced frightening dreams in which they were attacked by snakes and malevolent forces. Feeling guilty, they had come back to seek forgiveness and make amends. Saijan responded by saying that those who truly repent and acknowledge their mistakes are not punished by God, as there is no sin that cannot be forgiven by the divine.
