There is a chapter from Bhai Sahib Bhai Randhir Singh’s Book Unditti Dunia that discusses Jamdoots. Bhai Sahib writes about one Kehar Singh (he was not a Sikh) who was being visited by a Jamdoot. Bhai Sahib writes that Kehar Singh was in a very bad state, he was constantly being terrified by the Jamdoot. He confided in Bhai Sahib that the Jamdoot would constantly come to him and terrify him. As long Bhai Sahib was in the room, the Jamdoot would not dare enter. Kehar Singh, thus realized that the only Truth in the world is to do Bhagti. He was in a very bad shape physically because of an illness and mentally and spiritually because of the Jamdoot. Bhai Sahib writes that seeing him like this he felt very sorry for him, he wanted to help him, he wanted to tell him to recite Gurmantar -Naam so he could save himself. But Bhai Sahib writes that this is against Gurmat, we cannot tell someone to recite Gurmantar-Naam, only Panj Pyare have the authority to do this. Bhai Sahib writes he was scared to break this Hukam of Guru Sahib, he had not done anything against Guru Sahib's Hukam, so he couldn’t do it then. At that time in Jail an Amrit Sanchar Smagam could not be organized and he alone could not give him Naam or tell him to recite Naam.
From Bhai Sahib's Book Unditti Dunia
Now we need to think, if Bhai Sahib could not even tell him to recite Vaahiguroo Gurmantar, not give him Naam Drirr, but he could not even ask the man to recite Vahiguroo, then what are we doing in Keertan? We are constantly doing Simran in Keertan and constantly getting the entire Sangat to Jap Naam and getting them to recite Vaahiguroo. This seems to be wrong and goes against the teachings of Guru Sahib. There are many people in Sangat that do not have Naam and we are getting them to Jap Naam and do Simran. Only the Panj Pyare have that responsibility. Naam is always Gupt; we do not openly Jap Naam. Bhai Sahib was AFRAID to even tell the man to say Vaahiguroo, yet we get the entire Sangat to say Vaahiguroo thousands of times during Rainsbhais! We need to think about this and take into account Bhai Sahib’s writings, from this it seems that doing Simran in Keertan is wrong and against Guru Sahib’s Hukam.
