Faqir Chand & Sons Book Shop

 Shri Nathji used to visit Faqir Chand & Sons of Shri Ram Lubhaya at Khan Market. When ever shri Nathji used to come to the shop There had been Shri Ram Lubhaya, proprietor of the famous bookshop in Khan Market, who used to say this when ever Shri Nathji entered his shop -

“Meri dukaan men to Bhagwan aa gaye!

God, Himself, has come into my shop!”

These, indeed, were the words of many shopkeepers whose shops Shri Nathji visited.
Shri Nathji had reminded Ram Lubhaya, how he had offered to serve him at the time of Shri Nathji’s eye operation in 1975. It was Shri Nathji's magnanimity that he remembered even the small words and sentences that people had uttered years ago.
No matter which shop, which house, which office, Shri Nathji visited, the persons present there had the feeling that he was God who had visited their place.
It was a spontaneous recognition that came from within –the individual soul recognising the Universal Soul, the drop of water recognising the ocean, the moth recognising the flame. As Shri Nathji would say:
“It is a natural attraction like that of an iron and a magnet!”

Shri Ram Lubhaya was then owner of  Faqir Chand & Sons, a legendary, long-standing bookstore in Delhi's Khan Market (established 1951), known for its vast collection and deep roots in the market, a true bibliophile's haven where the original founder's legacy continues through generations, providing a rich experience beyond just selling books. Its address is 15-A, Near Rabindra Nagar, Khan Market, Delhi.
The sign outside reads "Established in 1951," but the bookstore's story goes back further. It began in Peshawar, Pakistan, about 20 years earlier. After partition, the family fled to Delhi and was allotted a shop and flat in Khan Market. Mr Faqir Chand restarted his bookstore here from scratch, and today, it’s one of the city's most iconic spots—where visitors come to read, share stories, click pictures, and take home more books than they planned.
 

Cuticura talcum powder

 Cuticura talcum powder was Shri Nathji's favorie brand. Shri Nathji would apply Cuticura talcum powder to his chest and shoulders and armpits and back, and on his stomach before putting the vest on. 

Cuticura started as a Mildly Medicated soap in 1865, when the brand was first launched with Cuticura Soap. The success of the Cuticura Soap in relieve distressing irritations led to the founding company, Potter Drug and Chemical Company to extend the range to powders and ointments in the early 1900s. And since then this powder has been available in India. Later Chennai-based Cholayil Group, expanded its portfolio by acquiring Cuticura through its subsidiary, Dorcas Market Makers from Muller & Phipps in 2002. Caticura is still a very popular talc poder brand in India, specially in Kerela.

Prophet Daawood

 Priya Nathji composed and sang Shri Nathji Gazals on his Harmonium and Shri Nathji greatly enjoyed them and praised Priya Nathji. Shri Nathji was enamoured of Priya Nath’s voice and called it: “Rabbi aavaaz! A Divine Voice!”
This indeed was what many of the devotees who listened to the voice called it as well. The voice was, in reality, Shri Nathji emerging in the form of His Words put to music. Priya Nath sang from the depths of his heart and soul, in which there was nothing but Shri Nathji.
 Shri Nathji would call the voice of Priya Nath: “Laine Daawoodi! The voice of the legendary prophet Daawood!”–whose singing had intoxicated all living beings and creatures with divine bliss.
David, is considered a prophet and messenger of Allah (God) in Islam and is reffered as Dawus also spelled as Daawood., He is described in Islam as a righteous, divinely anointed king of Israel. Additionally, Muslims also revere David for receiving the divine revelation of the Zabur. Dawud is considered one of the most important people in Islam. Mentioned sixteen times in the Quran,
In Islam, the Prophet Dawood renowned for his exceptionally beautiful and melodious voice. This gift was a miracle from Allah, used for a special form of melodious chanting and recitation of the holy book. The "singing" associated with Prophet Dawood was not entertainment or music in the modern secular sense, but a powerful, moving, and rhythmic recitation of the divine verses of the Zabur. The beauty of his voice is so legendary that in some Muslim cultures (such as Persian/Urdu), the phrase "Lahn-e-Daud" (sound/voice of Dawood) is used to describe a person with an exceptionally melodious voice.
David appears in the Islamic scripture as a link in the chain of prophets who preceded Muhammad. In later Islamic traditions, he is praised for his rigor in prayer and fasting. He is also presented as the prototypical just ruler and as a symbol of God's authority on earth, having been at once a king and a prophet.

Rikhi Ram & Sons

 Shri Nathji and Priya Nath went to a famous music shop in Connaught Place, Rikhi Ram & Sons. It was from this firm that Mahamateshwari had purchased her harmonium years ago in Lahore. Shri Nathji wished to present a harmonium to Priya Nath for the coming Birthday of Shri Babaji Bhagwan.
On the evening of January 8, 1981, as they entered the music shop, Priya Nath noticed that there were parallel mirrors on two opposite walls of the shop. Shri Nathji was standing between the two walls inside the shop.
And lo and behold! There was a sight the likes of which had not been seen before upon the planet earth.
Shri Nathji was seen reflected an infinite number of times in each of the mirrors. It was as if Shri Nathji had multiplied his personality to form a countless number of Nath’s in both directions! It was a heavenly sight that was too beautiful to describe in words.
Shri Nathji was in his bright yellow silk turban, dark glasses and a face with a divine glow that was like the sun, the smart-fitting, green, woollen achkan of Mussoorie, white woollen chooridars, and black shoes–multiplied in millions of images on both sides. It was as if Shri Nathji had multiplied his images to reach far out, to the ends of the Universe itself. 

The proprietor of the shop who did not know Shri Nathji, developed an instant respect for him. Priya Nath thought he looked incredibly like the sitarist Ravi Shanker. He showed a harmonium to Priya Nath. The moment Priya Nath ran his fingers over the keys of the harmonium he liked the sound. Shri Nathji also said that the sound was perfect. And thus the harmonium was bought for nine hundred rupees. It was Shri Nathji's grand gift to Priya Nath–one that marked the beginning of a new and beautiful phase in Priya Nath’s life with Shri Nathji.
