The story comes from . It happened a long time ago, over 300 years. For the Sikhs life was difficult. They had been under attack for many years. There were lots of poor people without anyone to help them.

The Sikh leader was called Guru Gobind Singh. Guru means teacher, and he taught people about God. Guru Gobind Singh decided things had to change, and so, on the spring festival of Vaisakhi, he called the Sikhs to join him. There was a huge crowd, over 20,000 people. Guru Gobind Singh stood outside his tent and called out: 'I need a Sikh who is willing to die for God and for the Guru.'

His words were passed through the crowd. Everyone was amazed. Who was devoted enough to give up their life? Twice more the Guru called out to the crowd and asked the question. Then one man came forward. Guru Gobind Singh took him into his tent. After a while the Guru came out by himself. But in his hand was a sword covered in blood! The crowd gasped. Then the Guru asked again. 'Who is willing to die for God and the Guru?' Surely no one else would come forward.

What about that sword with blood on the blade? But then another man stepped forward and went into the tent with the Guru. Once again the Guru came out of the tent alone, with blood on his sword. Then amazingly, another man stepped forward and went into the tent, and then another. Four brave and devoted men - and each time the Guru stepped out of the tent alone, with his sword in his hand.

Then a fifth man stepped forward and went into the tent with the Guru. How many men must die, the crowd wondered. But this time the Guru came out of the tent, with his sword, and behind him were the five men. They were still alive!

'This was a test,' the Guru explained, 'to see who was brave enough and willing to give up everything to show how much they were devoted to God.' The Guru called the five men the '', the beloved pure ones. They were to become the first members of a group called the Khalsa, which would defend the Sikh and care for the poor and helpless, whoever they were and whatever they believed.

Then the Guru made a mixture of sugar and water called 'amrit' and gave it to the pure ones. He asked the beloved pure ones to give him some of the amrit, to show that although he was the Guru, all people were equal in God's eyes. That day amrit was given to people in the crowd who said that they believed in one God, and that all people were equal. They were given new last names too, to show that they now belonged to one big family - women were given the name Kaur, which means princess, and men were given the name Singh, which means lion.

From that time onwards any man or woman, or boy or girl, who shows that they want to follow the Sikh way of life, takes part in a special ceremony which is often celebrated at this time. They, too, join the Khalsa and they make five important promises:

1 To wear five signs or symbols of the faith (see the five K's above). 2 To follow the teachings of the Sikh and the holy book called the . 3 To help people in need. 4 To give up alcohol and tobacco and to be faithful to their husbands or wives. 5 To work hard and to give to charity.

In Gurdwaras, it is important to show equality and respect and for He talked to them all. Sikhs, by doing this, is seen as a form of worship towards God. Nearing one village, Nanak felt tired and hungry so he decided to stay for a few days. Lalo, a poor carpenter, invited Nanak to stay at his house and Nanak was pleased to accept. Now it just so happens that a rich man named Malik Bhago who lived in the same village heard that the Guru was visiting and he sent his servants to invite Nanak to stay with him instead. He believed that Nanak would rather stay with him than in a poor man’s home. ‘I will give an enormous feast for all the important people in the village, and Nanak, as my guest of honour, can sit by my side’. Many people came to Malik Bhago’s feast, but Nanak did not arrive. This made Malik Bhago very angry and he sent his servants to find Nanak. They went straight to Lalo’s house where they found Nanak. He agreed to go with them and arrived at Malik Bhago’s home to find a large crowd had gathered. They sensed that something was wrong, and wanted to see what would happen. Malik Bhago met Nanak at the door. ‘Why did you refuse to come to my feast?’ Malik Bhago asked. ‘I had cakes and rich food for you to eat but your preferred to eat course bread’. Guru Nanak asked for a piece of cake. Then he took a piece of Lalo’s coarse bread from his bag. He squeezed them both. To the surprise of the crowd, drops of milk trickled from the bread, while from the cake came drops of blood. Malik Bhago shouted, ‘This is a trick!’ But Guru Nanak answered, ‘This is no trick. Lalo’s simple bread was earned by : honest work, but your cake, and all your wealth, was gained by cheating the poor’. Malik Bhago thought about what Guru Nanak had said and he felt ashamed of the Vaisakhi: way that he had lived. From then on, he changed his ways and followed the teachings of Guru Nanak.
