  • Baisakhi of 1699
    Baisakhi Day of 1699: The Birth of the Khalsa The first day of the month of Baisakh (March / April) is celebrated with a great deal of enthusiasm in Punjab. The festival marks the end of the previous agricultural cycle and the beginning of a new one. Baisakhi marks the beginning of a new year for a Punjabi farmers. The wheat crop is ready to be harvested in the villages and the farmers rejoice at the prospect of abundant food available to feed their families for the rest of the year with enough left over to sell in the market place to raise cash to pay off the personal loans and meet other family needs! The farmer families celebrate the festival by singing and dancing bhangra and giddha. Guru Amar Das turned the Baisakhi festival into a day for visiting the Guru. Later, Guru Gobind Singh chose the Baisakhi day of 1699 (30 March) to inaugurate the Khalsa Panth; there is a difference of opinion as to the exact year of the birth of the Khalsa ranging from 1689 to 1699. At this point one may ask what led to the birth of the Khalsa? There is no short answer to this question. The idea of the Khalsa Panth seems to have evolved in Guru Gobind Singh’s mind over a period of time. Main facts may be recounted as follows. First, Guru Tegh Bahadur (his father) was beheaded on orders from Emperor Aurangzeb in 1675; it is a story by itself to be told another time. The Sikhs in Dehli were paralyzed with fear so that no one came forward to claim the Guru’s remains for several days until one Sikh (Lakhi Shah Lubana) came up with a clever idea, at some cost to him.

  • Mata Gujri Ji
    Mata Gujri Ji Mata Gujri ji, wife of the 9thSikh Guru, Guru Tegh Bahadurji, and mother of the 10th Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh ji, is an inspirational figure in the Sikh history who faced many challenging circumstances. Mata Gujri was the daughter of Bhailal Chand Subulikka and BishanKaur, a pious couple of Kartarpur.She married (Guru) Tegh Bahadur on February 4th1633.After Tegh BahadurJi was installed as Guru in 1664, he went with his mother Nanaki, and his wife Gujri to Patna. Mata Gujri gave birth to a son on December 22nd 1666 in Patna. The child was named GobindRai, the illustrious Guru Gobind Singh. Guru TeghBahadur returned to Patna in 1670 for a brief stay before he left for Delhi, instructing the family to proceed to Lakhnaur, now in Haryana. July 11th, 1675 was a momentous day in Sikh history when Guru Tegh Bahadur left for Delhi prepared to make the supreme sacrifice. Mata Gujri showed courage at the time of parting and bore the ultimate trial with fortitude. Guru Tegh Bahadur was executed in Delhi on November 11th1675. Guru Gobind Singh was young. The responsibility of managing the affairs at Chakk Nanaki, initially, fell on Mata Gujri. When in face of a prolonged siege by hostile hill rajas and Mughal troops,Guru Gobind Singh had to evacuate Chakk Nanaki (Anandpur) on the night of December 5-6th,1705.Mata Gujri with her grandsons, Zorawar Singh and Fateh Singh, aged nine and seven years respectively, were separated from the main group while crossing the rivulet Sarsa. Mata Gujri and her grandsons were arrested on December 8th, and confined in Sirhind Fort in what is referred to in Sikh chronicles as ThandaBurj, the cold tower.
