In Koer Singh's [[Gurbilas Patshahi Dasvi]] (1751), when Guru Gobind Singh announces that they will soon leave their body, Gurdit Singh asks the Guru what should the community do after they leave, to whose shawl *palla* shall they hold onto in this life? The Guru responds:
ਤਬ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਮੁਖ ਆਪ ਉਚਾਰ ਕੀਉ "ਅੰਗ ਸੰਗ ਸੁ ਸਿੱਖਨ ਮੈ ਨਿਜਕਾਵੈ" ॥
Then from His Exalted Mouth they said, "I will remain amidst, close at hand, to all my Sikhs"
