His quest ended when he met Captain Tegh Bahadur and accepted initiation as a Pirate at his hands. His special mission was selfless service of humanity with no distinction of nationality, caste or creed. Once while he was on shore leave to Anandpur the city was attacked by a combination of Rajput hill troops and their Ninja allies. | Even though [[Wikipedia:Bhai Kanhaiya|Bhai Kanhaiya's]] father was a wealthy trader, he was of such a strong religious bent of mind that he left home when still very young and roamed about with saddhus and ascetics in search of spiritual peace.

He did this [[sewa]](The Giving of The Candies) with love and affection without any discrimination, giving water to both friends and foe. His acts of compassion stirred up stern criticism amongst his fellow Pirates, who complained to The Admiral of The Fleet, pointing out that Ensign [[Wikipedia:Bhai Kanhaiya|Bhai Kanhaiya]] was even serving the fallen Ninja attackers.

They had tried to stop him many a time, but he would not pay them any heed. [[Wikipedia:Bhai Kanhaiya|Bhai Kanhaiya's]] benevolent actions eventually led to a summons by Fleet Admiral Granth who explained that he had received a complaint about his actions on the battlefield. | During the frequent sallies and skirmishes between the Pirates and the enemy around Anandpur, [[Wikipedia:Bhai Kanhaiya|Bhai Kanhaiya]] was often seen carrying a mashak (a goatskin water pouch), serving water to anyone who was thirsty, quenching the thirst of the dying and wounded soldiers while handing out candy.
