Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji

(10th Sikh Guru)
(AD 1666-1708)

A Saint and Soldier

By

Commander Balvir Singh

 < siqgur pRswid]
Writing about Guru Gobind Singh’s life is very difficult task as his life was packed with actions to
spread the teachings of Guru Nanak for uplifting the moral fiber of Indian society and protect them
from the errant rule of Moughal’s who always considered Hindu’s as “Kafir”.

It was during the rule of Aurangzeb, that atrocities on Hindu religion peaked. If we see the political
map of India*; it may be seen that Moughal rule which was restricted to Northern, Central and
Eastern part of India before ascent of Aurangzeb was expanded to the extreme southern part India
thus making it one of the biggest empire in Europe. He had an annual yearly revenue of $450
million, more than ten times that of his contemporary  Louis XIV of France. Such was the scale of
wealth and military power he commanded .

Chhatrapatti Shivaji’s death in 1680 and Aurangzeb's capture and execution of Sambhaji in 1687
reduced Maratha’s as a divided and weak opposition. Southern rulers were mainly concerned with
saving their Kingdom. Pocket’s of opposition to the rule of Aurangzeb continued but non could stop
his anti Hindu tirade and expansionist plan.

Hindu’s were a divided and weak community and had no courage to stand up and save themselves .
A large population was converting under pressure from Moughal’s rule. Sikh Guru’s held the hand
of Hindu’s and scarified their life and family for saving this nation and Hindu religion. Guru Tegh
Bahadar Ji’s in 1675 sacrifices his life to uphold his support for stopping conversion of Kashmir’s
Hindus to Muslim. This act of 9th Sikh Guru gave Hindu’s the courage to fight to save their religion.
Cont- Next
A large section of them looked upon his son Guru Gobind Singh Ji as their protector. Sri Guru
Gobind Rai (Singh) at the age of 9 years changed the concept of religion and which required
a religious person to be complete Saint and Soldier (Saint & Sipahi) in one.

Guru Ji at the age of 33 years; Created Khalsa (The pure one) in 1699. Guru ji himself made
innumerable personal sacrifices by Sacrificing his father Guru Tegh Bahadar Ji, his four young
son’s and mother Mata Gujri Ji besided many of loved once. This changed the course of
History, Khalsa (Sikhs) became a dominant force in north India in a short span of time and
blocked the “Hindu Kush valley” which was the only route of the invaders for centuries. This
completely cut off access to India for the invaders and their supply and trade route.
Consequently, the Moughal rule fell apart in very quick time and ended in India.

Writings of some of prominent writers is placed in the beginning of this article to understand
greatness of Guru Gobind Singh Ji. Please note most of these noted writers were Muslim; all
the more important that we project a true picture of great Guru Gobind Singh Ji to the
mankind and remain indebted to Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji .

 Pir Bhikan Shah
• Pir Bhikham Shah lived in village Thaska in District Karnal, now in Haryana.
He on the day that Guru Gobind Rai was born made a deep and
respectful bow towards East in the direction of Patna.
• His disciple asked him the purpose of his strange act. He said “ My
beloved God is born today who will be both a saint and a hero. He has
taken birth to destroy evil, sin and falsehood. He will fight for the cause of
virtue, and truth”. He left for Patna to have darshan of Guru.
• On seeing the child, the Faqir respectfully made a deep bow after which
he offered two earthen pots containing sweetmeats. The Pir had
purchased one pot from a Muslim and the second pot of sweets from a
Hindu. After placing both the pots containing sweets before Gobind Rai,
the Pir sat down with folded hands looking at the child.
 Pir Bhikan Shah
• Gobind Rai placed his left
hand on one of the pots
and at the same time
placed his right hand on
the other pot.
• Pir Ji was assured that
Gobind will see all
mankind with equality. He
remained ardent devote of
Guru Gobind Singh Ji
throughout his life.

 Kashmir's Pandits in Darbar of
Guru Tegh Bahadar Ji

• Sher Afghan implemented the states policy of converting all Hindus to

Muslim with brutal force.
• Pandit Kirparam was a respected person among Hindu's and also by
the rulers of Kashmir. He pleaded and got six months time from “Sher
Afghan” to pray and seek blessings of their spiritual gods before
conversion.
• In May 1675 Pandit Kirparam with a group of Pandit’s came to
Anandpur wher he narrated their tales of woe to Gurdev and sough
his help and protection.
• While Guru Tegh Bahadar Ji was listening to them, (Guru) Gobind Rai
(Singh) who was just 7 years old asked his father why Pandits are so
disturbed ?
 Kashmir's Pandits in Darbar of
Guru Tegh Bahadar Ji
• Sri Guru Tegh Bahadar Ji said “in the name of religion a lot of injustice is
being done and Muslim rulers have unleashed terror on Hindu’s to convert to
Muslim religion”. He further told (Guru) Gobind Rai (Singh) that “people are
not resisting and accepting atrocities of rulers, there is a need to infuse new
life and self respect among peasant to live with self respect and honor”.
• He continued and said “ Some one will have to make a Supreme sacrifice to
stop conversion of Hindus to Muslim”.
• Guru Gobind Ji said “Guru Ji “ Who could be better person than
you yourself ”.
• Guru ji was much relived from the reply of his son. He told Pandit’s, go and
tell Mughal Governor that we will change our religion if our Guru Tegh
Bahadur Ji accept converting to Muslim religion.
 Kashmir's Pandits conveyed decision of
Guru Tegh Bahadar Ji to Aurangzeb
• Kashmir Pandits conveyed Guru Tegh Bahadar ji’s dictate to Governor Sher
Afghan. He in turn passed it to Auragzeb.
• Aurangzeb as such was of the opinion that Guru Tegh Bahadur had become a
socio-political challenge to the Muslim and to his rule . He was also aware of
battles fought by 6th Guru Hargobind Ji with Sahajahan and 7th Guru Har Rai
ji helping his brother Dara Shikoh while he was on the run after failed revolt
against him.
• Aurangzeb issued order of Guru Ji’s arrest.
• Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji was aware of Aurangzeb's reaction. He left
Anandpur Sahib in July 1675 for Delhi to make the ultimate sacrifice for
the Kashmiri Brahmins to save their religion.
• While going towards Delhi he visited many places and spread the message of
awakening among peasants. He passed through Ropar, Patiala. He went to
the village “Gari Najir” of Bhikan Shah and them from Jind to Agra.
Martyrdom to save Hindu religion
• At Agra he offered his arrest and he was taken to Delhi by Kotwal Nizam
Safi Khan and Kiledar Mulatfat Khan.Bhai Mati Das ji, Bhai Dyala Ji and
Bhai Sati Das Ji were also taken in custody.
• Guru Ji told Bhai Uda ji and Bhai Gurditta Ji who were also accompanying
him not to give their arrest and were tasked to manage situation in Delhi
after their arrest and inform Anandpur Sahib.
• Aurangzeb had already issued orders to arrest and Kill Guru Tegh Bahadarji
if he did not accept conversion to Islam.
• In order to intimidate Guru Ji, the Kazi’s (Islamic magistrates) made a plan
to torture other Sikhs to death before the eyes of Guru. They thought that
the Guru would embrace Islam out of fear seeing the Sikhs murdered.
They executed this plan mercilessly.

One day, a group of Sikh pilgrims arrived in Anandpur. The leader of one group, on seeing the
Guru, made this request.
"Only yesterday as we were on our way to you, a party of Mughal soldiers stopped us and
robbed us. They took some of our party and cut of their hair and when we resisted some of
our friends were killed. Where can we look for assistance?"

The Guru listened to the Sikhs and calmly replied, "Wait and pray to
God. Very soon you will find guardians for the people everywhere."
The Birth The
of Birth of Khalsa
Khalsa
On Guru’s call,
thousands of Sikhs
assembled at
Anandpur to
celebrate the
festival
*Image via Bing
He asked the gathering, with a naked sword in his hand, "Is
there any one among you who is prepared to die for the Sikh
Faith?"
 A Sikh from Lahore named Daya Ram stood up. He
folded his hands, bent his head low and said, "O Lord,
you can have my humble head."

*Image via Bing

And so Guru Gobind Singh Ji repeated his calls Dharam Das stood up on 2nd call
of Guru, Mohkam Chand of Dwarka stood up at the third call, Sahib Chand of
Bihar the fourth and at the fifth call Himmat Rai of Jagan Nath offered himself.

The Guru then introduced his Sikhs to a new kind of initiation ceremony called the Amrit (Baptism). He
put pure water into an iron bowl. He stirred the water with a Khanda (Double edged sword) while the five
Sikhs recited the sacred verses (the Japji, the Jap Sahib, the Anand Sahib, the Swayye and the Chaupai ).
 *Image via Bing

Thus the Amrit was ready and the Guru asked the five to repeat
"Waheguru ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh" while he took the
Amrit in the palms of his hands and baptised each one of them
with it and gave them a new name - 'Singh'.
*Image via Bing

Then he himself was baptised by 'the five' and

called himself Gobind Singh.

Sahibzada (Baba) Ajit Singh Ji at Chamkaur

Sahibzada Ajit Singh Ji was Guru Ji's eldest son, born to Mata Sundhri Ji on 9th
November 1686 at Anandpur Sahib. He received the gift of Amrit from the panj piaray
on Baisakhi 1699. In the battle of Sarsa he had commanded the rear guard of Guru Ji's
camp.
In the Chamkaur fortress S.Ajit Singh Ji had seen the Sikh warriors go out in fives and
die heroic deaths.
He approched his father and asked if he could be next. Guru Ji took him in his arms
and blessed him.
Guru Ji sent him out with five Sikhs - Alim Singh, Jawahar Singh, Dhyan Singh, Sukha
Singh and Bir Singh.
The enemy fell before them as shrubs in a wind storm as they fought with great valour.
When their arrows had been spend and swords broken they fell one by one. Sahibzada
Ajit Singh at the tender age of 18 years died in battle as befitting a Sikh of Guru Gobind
Singh Ji.

• Sahibzada Jujhar Singh Ji was Guru Gobind Singh Ji's second son. Born
on 27th November 1690 to Mata Jito Ji at Anandpur Sahib. Like his
elder brother Baba Ajit Singh Ji he received the gift of Amrit from the
Panj Piaray on Baisakhi 1699.
• By the time S.Ajit Singh Ji had fallen in battle at Chamkaur there were
only 10 Sikhs left in the fortress. S.Jujhar Singh Ji had watched from the
roof top, he approached his father and asked to follow his brother.
• Guru Ji embraced him and blessed him. Guru Ji sent out 5 more Sikhs
with S.jujhar Singh Ji.
• The enemy dropped on them like the monsoon rains. Baba Jujhar Singh
Ji leapt into the enemy ranks and fought fearlessly, the moghals
surprised to see such a young adversary. S. Jujhar Singh Ji at the tender
age of 14 years fell in battle as befitting a son of Guru Gobind Singh Ji.

 He added bani of Sri
Guru Teg Bahadar Sahib
Ji in the Granth Sahib
 1708
• Aurangzeb died in 1707, and immediately
a succession struggle began between his
sons who attacked each other. The official
successor was Bahadur Shah, who invited
Guru Gobind Singh with his army to meet
him in person in the Deccan region of
India, for a reconciliation but Bahadur
Shah then delayed any discussions for
months.
• Guru Ji left his company and proceeded to
Nanded where he baptized Baba Banda
Singh Bahadar.
• Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji gave 5 Arrows ,
Kirpan and asked Baba Banda Singh
Bahadar to go to Punjab, Organize Sikhs
and punish those involved in killing 4
Sahibjade and various Sikhs.
 Last days of Guru Gobind SinghJi

• Wazir Khan a Muslim army commander and the Nawab of Sarhandh,

against whose army the Guru had fought several wars, commissioned
two Afghans, Jamshed Khan and Wasil Beg, to follow the Guru's army as
it moved for the meeting with Bahadur Shah, and then  assassinate the
Guru. The two secretly pursued the Guru whose troops were in the
Deccan area of India, and entered the camp when the Sikhs had been
stationed near river Godavari for months. They gained access to the
Guru and Jamshed Khan stabbed him with a fatal wound at Nanded .
• According to Senapati's Sri Gur Sobha, an early 18th century writer, the
fatal wounds of the Guru was one below his heart. The Guru fought
back and killed the assassin, while the assassin's companion was killed
by the Sikh guards as he tried to escape.
 Guru Granth Ji is Eternal Guru of Sikhs
Guru Granth Ji Manieu …………..
• He called his fellow Sikhs to come and then opened the Granth Sahib, placed five
paise and solemnly bowed to it as his successor, GURU GRANTH SAHIB. Saying
'Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh', he walked around the Guru Granth
Sahib and proclaimed, "O beloved Khalsa, let him who desireth to behold me, behold
the Guru Granth. Obey the Granth Sahib. It is the visible body of the Gurus. And let
him who desires to meet me, search me in the hymns."
• He then sang his self-composed hymn: "Agya bhai Akal ki tabhi chalayo Panth Sabh
Sikhan ko hukam hai Guru manyo Granth Guru Granth Ji manyo pargat Guran ki
deh Jo Prabhu ko milbo chahe khoj shabad mein le Raj karega Khalsa aqi rahei na
koe Khwar hoe sabh milange bache sharan jo hoe."
Translation of the above:
"Under orders of the Immortal Being, the Panth was created. All the Sikhs are
enjoined to accept the Granth as their Guru. Consider the Guru Granth as
embodiment of the Gurus. Those who want to meet God, can find Him in its hymns.
The Khalsa shall rule, and its opponents will be no more, Those separated will unite
and all the devotees shall be saved."

My humble effort to write on Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s who changed the role of Saint to be complete as Saint
and Soldier. I hope this booklet will help understand his social mission of “ Manas Ke Jat Sabhe Eko Pahicanbo” (All
are children of one God). ( ihMdU qurk koaU rwPjI iemwm swPI, mwns kI jwq sbY eykY pihcwnbo] )

Suggestion for improvement are welcome. Thanks.
