A businessman returned from his trip and arrived in a small town a few miles from his village, he had some heavy luggage with him. It was past midnight and was desperate to find someone who could carry his luggage as the very next day his son was about to get married. He went to many labourers in desperation who could take him to his village offering double money. They all replyed that he should wait for day-break and refused to take him at night, but he was also told that there was only one man in the town Naami Jann (Beloved of God) who could oblige him as he would awaken at this time.
Anyhow this businessman went to this Naami Jann (Beloved of God)) and repeated his problem, this Naami Jann refused to take double the money but stated that he would take the businessman on one condition only, that as it was Amrit Vela that the businessman had to join him in Naam Simran along the way to his village, the businessman agreed happily.
As they walked, Naami Jann with a heavy load on his head was Naam Japping and the businessman kept repeating after him but all this time he was thinking about his sons wedding and money. Soon they reached businessman's house. Naami Jann (Beloved of God)) was about to return home but the businessman insisted that he should join the wedding, Naami Jann (Beloved of God)) agreed.
After the wedding as the Naami Jann ( Beloved of God)) thanked and sought an excuse to leave from the businessman , before he left he told the businessman that he was going to die the next day and told him to remember that when Dharamraajaa the Divine Judge asks him if he would like to visit heaven before going to hell, he must remember to say heaven.
This businessman believed the Naami Jann (Beloved of God)) and passed his business onto his son. The very next day this businessman died. He was taken to Dharamraajaa the Divine Judge who told him that in his entire life he had only done Sangat once; in the good company of Naami Jaan at Amrit Velaa.
Dharamraajaa told the businessman he was going to hell, but asked if he would like to visit heaven first as a reward for keeping the good sangat of Naami Jann? The businessman remembered what Naami Jann (Beloved of God)) said and asked to visit heaven first.
Dharamraajaa, the Divine Judge, asked the Angels of Death to take him to heaven and then take him to hell after his time. Angels of Death beat the businessman and dragged him towards the far entrance of heaven. He ran as fast as he could and entered heaven; scared and bruised from the beatings. As he entered heaven what did he see? The same Naami Jann (Beloved of God)) who carried his heavy load before.

The Naami Jann (Beloved of God)) was sitting and immersed in Naam Japping. The businessman saw him and sat beside him and joined Naami Jann (Beloved of God)) in Naam japping; this time with complete oneness of mind - deep concentration.
After his visiting time was up the businessman was getting up to go back to the Angels of death that he could see waiting at the entrance. The Naami Jann saw this and stopped him going out of heaven and persuaded him to jap the Naam. -He explained that these Angels of Death and Dharamraajaa the Divine Judge cannot enter heaven. Then he vanished.

The businessman sat down and started Naam Japping.and hence was saved from the Angels of Death and the gates of hell.........
Just a few hours doing a Satsang at Amrit Vela saved this businessman from hell (Naarak) for ever and he resided in heaven japping Naam.
