Bhagat Trilochan

Trilochan, also spelt as Tarlochan, was a celebrated medieval Indian saint and one of devotee whose hymns are present in Guru Granth Sahib, the holy book of Sikhs.

As per Mahankosh, He was born on 1269 in a Vaishya family and was dweller of Barsi (Solapur District, Maharashtra). Most of scholars accepted his birth in the mid-13th century.

There are four shabads by Bhagat Tirlochan in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. In these he has condemned superficial rituals and pretentious renunciation and stressed the holiness of the heart.

The following hymns of Trilochan are found in the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji:

Bhagat Trilochan admonishes mortals:

The mind is totally attached to Maya; the mortal has forgotten his fear of old age and death.
Gazing upon his family, he blossoms forth like the lotus flower; the deceitful person watches and covets the homes of others. (1)
When the powerful Messenger of Death comes, no one can stand against his awesome power.
Rare, very rare, is that friend who comes and says,
"O my Beloved, take me into Your Embrace! O my Lord, please save me!"(1)Pause. Continued...
