Family Friends & Colleagues remembering Guruji
Singh Sahab, an exceptional teacher, became a dear friend and motivator for over 45 years until his passing. I enjoyed teaching Physics to his sons, Diwakar and Sanjay, while he taught Political Science to my daughter, Raisa. Throughout the journey, Singh Sahab stood by me through life's ups and downs, providing unwavering support.( 02/7)

In 1970, Guruji and I worked as colleagues in Jalore before joining Indian Administrative Services. Guruji used to teach Diwakar, who was around 11 to 12 years old at that time. I greatly admired Guruji's principle of simple living and high thinking, which resonated with my own values. Guruji's remarkable personality left an indelible mark on everyone who had the privilege of meeting him. (03/7)

Guruji, our boss, consistently treated us as colleagues. When my son started his business, Guruji was the first to offer assistance. He even entrusted us with managing the savings of his entire family, including investments like PPF and LIC. Throughout, he treated us as integral members of his family.

My late husband, Shri Davadat Ji, and Shri Bhagwan Singh Ji Payal, as far as I recall, belonged to a similar age group and shared the same educational field. They exhibited almost identical natures, always ready to assist their students. I gleaned valuable lessons from them about fair competition and the importance of learning from one another. Their mutual respect for each other was truly noteworthy.

आदरणीय भगवान सिह पायल के सम्पूर्ण व्यक्तित्व को कुछ शब्दो मे समेटना सम्भव नही है । एक सच्चे छात्र के चरित्र को अपने आप में समेटकर महाविद्यालय एवम विश्वविद्यालयी स्तर पर ज्ञान अर्जन में पायल साहब ने अपने आप को सर्वश्रेष्ठ साबित किया । इसी ज्ञान को अपने संघर्षमयी ग्रामीण जीवन की पृष्ठभूमि से प्राप्त उत्कृष्ट मूल्यो के साथ एकीकृत करते हुए आदरणीय भगवान सिन्ह जी ने अपने आप को परिष्कृत शिक्षक के रूप में ढाला । प्राय: देखा गया है कि उच्च शैक्षणिक प्रक्रिया से गुजरते गुजरते अधिकांश तथाकथित सफल छात्र अपने अविकसित ग्रामीण परिवेश को भूल जाते है, परंतु पायल साहब के जीवन में आप इससे ठीक उलट ही पाएंगे। गामीण जीवन से जुडना, बेहतरीन ग्रामीण परम्पराओ और जीवन शैली को अपने जीवन में उतारते हुए समाज को बेहतर समावेशी जीवन संदेश देने के साथ साथ ग्रामीणो के बेहतर जीवन स्तर को सुनिश्चित करने में समर्पित प्रयास तथा अपने ज्ञान का सदुपयोग उन्होने जीवन पर्यंत जारी रखा ।
आज पायल साहब को याद करके, उनके जीवन मूल्यो को समझने तथा जीवन में उतारने एवम बेहतर समाज के निर्माण का संकल्प लेकर उन्हे सच्ची श्रद्धांजलि अर्पित करें। (03/7)

Guruji and I began our careers simultaneously, working together for two to three years. I was amazed to discover that Guruji had not only read almost all the good books on political science but also on history, administration, and more from the college library. He remained a true teacher. This passion for reading and teaching persisted until his passing. (07/7)

As a retired navy man, practicality has always been my guiding principle. Shri Bhagwan Singh Ji, known for his scholarly nature, immersed himself in reading and maintained his health through indoor exercises. Politics became our preferred subject of discussion. He embodied the diligent and humble qualities of a village dweller, much like my own mother, and commanded respect within our society. (07/07)

Following the unfortunate demise of Bhagwan Singhji's wife, I made a visit to his village and had the opportunity to witness his unwavering integrity. It became apparent to me that he truly embodied the admirable qualities of a diligent and humble villager, reminiscent of the values instilled in me by my own parents. As a result, Guruji commanded deep respect and admiration from our society as a whole. (07/07)

As the eldest member of the S.P-Block, Jaipur children's group, I held deep reverence for both Girish's dadaji and my own grandfather. I gleaned valuable lessons from them.

I had the wonderful opportunity to visit Diwakarji's father at their residence in Greater Kailash, and I was instantly captivated by the extraordinary modesty he exuded. His profound passion for reading and his vast knowledge in various domains such as Political Science, history, general knowledge, and even medicine were truly impressive. His expertise extended to the extent that he even contributed articles to the prestigious Times of India. It comes as no surprise that our discussions frequently revolved around our mutual fascination with Indian politics and the field of medicine, topics that we both thoroughly relished exploring.(15/07)
Dr. Saharan & family
New Delhi
Upon my transfer from Neem Ka Thana to Sikar, I encountered a remarkable individual adorned in a dhoti-kurta, fluently conversing in English, Hindi, and Rajasthani. Our paths intertwined, and on occasions, I accompanied him to college as we were neighbors. It was during this time that I observed Guruji's unwavering dedication to teaching, whether it was Sudhakar, Sanjay, or any other student. He also engaged himself in preparing meals for his children, ensuring their time was well utilized.
Curiosity piqued, I inquired why he had discontinued hiring a maid helper for cooking. He humbly replied that it was crucial for children to learn to take care of their own tasks and develop respect for their responsibilities. (02/7)

भगवान सिंह जी और मैंने समान मूल्यों और मान्यताओं को साझा किया। चुनावों के दौरान, हमारी चर्चा लगातार हमारे निर्वाचन क्षेत्र में एक स्वच्छ और प्रगतिशील उम्मीदवार को विजयी देखने की हमारी साझा इच्छा के इर्द-गिर्द घूमती रही। इसके अलावा, आर्य समाज का प्रभाव हमारे गांव की संस्कृति में स्पष्ट था, जो कुछ सिद्धांतों के प्रति हमारी सामूहिक प्रतिबद्धता को दर्शाता है।
भगवान सिंह जी ने "सरल जीवन और उच्च विचार" के लोकाचार को मूर्त रूप दिया और मेरे जैसे ही ग्रामीण जीवन में बहुत खुशी पाई।

हमारा परिवार uncleji का बहुत आदर करता है, और हम पिछले 20 वर्षों से जयपुर में पड़ोसियों के रूप में उनसे परिचित हैं। उनका रहन-सहन सादा तथा विचार उच्च थे। अपनी पत्नी की मृत्यु के बाद, उन्होंने अपने पोते-पोतियों के साथ काफी समय बिताया। इस अवधि के दौरान, वह अक्सर अपने घर में समाचार पत्र, पुस्तकें इत्यादि पढ़ने और अपने प्यारे पोते-पोतियों के साथ चर्चा में तल्लीन रहते थे । (07/7)
