Adesh to the Holy Name! Adesh to Guruji! Om Guruji! I’m offering the large fan with dhupa and dipa, I’m burning incenses and lightning the fire to Guru Gorakshanath, uninterruptedly I’m fanning the place of his sitting. At dawn in the east a disciple fans the all parts of Guru Gorakshanathji’s body with the help of large fan. This way morchhal-mantra is completed. Great Nathaji Guruji adesh, adesh, adesh!
