Before his death, Guru Nanak appointed one of his Sikhs as the second Guru and entrusted him with the task of guiding the Sikh community. This tradition continued till the Tenth Guru, Gobind Singh (1666-1708) who established the Khalsa on Baisakhi 1699 AD and gave a distinct identity to the Sikhs; He baptized five Sikhs and named them Panj Pyare, after which the Guru himself baptized them at his request. Guru Gobind Singh ended the tradition of appointing human successor by establishing Guru Granth Sahib on the highest seat and living Guru before ascending the Sach Khand. During Guru Gobind Singh’s life, the Adi Granth compiled by his great-grandfather Guru Arjan was lost. Guru Gobind Singh set up his camp and dictated the entire Adi Granth from memory. He also included in it the songs of his father, Guru Teg Bahadur. The result was the creation of the Siri Guru Granth Sahib. Guru Arjan is the fifth Sikh Guru. He was the youngest son of Guru Ram Das. He was born in Goindwal, India. He breathed his last in Lahore, Pakistan where the Gurdwara of Dehra Sahib was established. His mother was Mata Bhani Ji. His wife was Mata Ganga Ji, They had only one son, Hargobind, who became Guru Hargobind Sahib. Guru Amar Das is the third Sikh Guru. He was born in Basarke, India.

Guru Nanak is the founder of the Sikh religion and the first of the Sikh gurus. He was born in a small village near the famous Punjabi city of Lahore to a Hindu merchant family. Later tradition holds that Guru Nanak gave signs of his future greatness when he was a baby. He lived a typical Hindu life until he reached 30 years of age and when he experienced a revelation of God. The highest being in Sikhism told him to rejoice in his name and teach others to do the same. For most of his life, Guru Amar Das was a devout Vaishnava Hindu, but after hearing a hymn in honor of Guru Nanak, he became a Sikh and a very close follower of Guru Angad. For his relentless service, he was named the third guru of Sikhism. Although he was a very peaceful man, he didn't abolish the army that his grandfather - Guru Hargobind - had created. Instead, he distanced himself from it physically and never used it himself to solve conflicts with the Empire.

He did not claim to be Hindu or Muslim, but as someone who believed in God and truth. He also preached to people that Hindus, Muslims and all people who believe in God are equal. Guru Tegh Bahadur was born in 1621. He believed strongly that people should be allowed and have the freedom to worship whatever religion they wanted. For this reason, he defended the Hindu religion to try and protect Hindus from being forced to convert to Islam. He also refused to convert to Islam and was executed and martyred as a result. 10. Guru Gobind Singh (1666-1708) Guru Hargobind created the martial art of the Sikhs – called Gatka. He also built the Akal Takhat, or the Throne of the Undying One, next to the Harimandir Sahib. The throne was a statement that the Sikh community was sovereign in its spiritual identity, and was self-governing in its social/political identity. This principle came to be known as Miri Piri. It was a direct statement to the ruling Emperor of the time that the Sikhs considered no one to have higher authority in their lives than God and Guru. Guru Ram Das was the fourth of the Sikh gurus and was born in 1534. He founded the city of Amritsar in northwest India, which is now the holy city for the Sikhs and also started construction of the Golden Temple. This is a very important temple for Sikhs, and still stands today! It is open for anyone to visit - every day of the year. It even stayed open in the Coronavirus pandemic.

For the youth he started the tradition of Mall Akhara, where physical as well as spiritual exercises were held. He collected the facts about Guru Nanak Sahib's life from Bhai Bala ji and wrote the first biography of Guru Nanak Sahib. (The Bhai Bale Wali Janamsakhi currently available is not the same as that which Guru Angad Sahib compiled.) He also wrote 63 Saloks (stanzas), these were included in Guru Granth Sahib. He popularized and expanded the institution of ' Guru ka Langar' started by Guru Nanak Sahib earlier.Guru Har Krishan was a humanitarian, which meant that his main aims were to help people. Throughout his short life, he mainly helped heal people in Delhi who were suffering from a smallpox epidemic. He helped many people, no matter where they came from or what their religion was. Guru Nanak achieved his state of enlightenment, or realization, sometime around the age of 30. After disappearing into a river and meditating in the water for three days, Guru Nanak emerged having had a powerful vision of the nature of reality, Divinity and human existence. He recorded that vision in a song – known as Japji Sahib– the Song of the Soul. With Japji Sahib, humanity has a rare picture of what a Master experienced at the moment of his enlightenment described in his own words. Despite the emphasis on equality, Guru Nanak formed a new religion, Sikhism. The first Sikh community (Panth) was formed in Kartarput. It followed Guru Nanak’s teachings and lifestyle, which has remained characteristic for Sikhs to this day. He named his successor, which also became a standard for how religious authority was transferred. Guru Gobind Singh (1666-1708) formalized the Sikh military community (the Khalsa), which would redefine the Panth, Sikh community. The Khalsa is given a mission to realize God’s work (Vaheguru). Everything they do is for the Vaheguru, including serving and chanting (Seva Simran), shaping the soldier’s sanctity (Sant Sipahi), and serving (Bhai Kanehiya).
