ਉਸਤਤਿ

Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth and last Sikh Guru, was the most fascinating and remarkably dazzling personality ever known in our history. A rare combination of character, compassion, determination, self-discipline, equality and heroism, his sense of commitment to human rights and justice was quite strong from his early days. When he was a child, he stood up by the Kashmiri Pandits, who were living in constant fear as Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb wanted them to convert to Islam. An ace strategist, visionary and excellent administrator, Guru Gobind Singh was a true leader of masses. As a versatile warrior, he had ultimate mastery in handling various kinds of weapons and had tremendous abilities to move the people for the cause of righteousness. If Guru Nanak Dev ji was almost Gandhian in his approach to human life, Guru Gobind Singh Ji was of the view that human rights must be protected from oppressors even if one has to take up arms — “When all peaceful means have been tried and failed, it is righteous and just to pick up the sword!” His thoughts were aligned to the prevalent realities marked by tyrannies of the Mughal regime, caste-based divisions and disparities among Hindus and the rulers having little or no respect for human values and rights. It was, in fact, a vicious circle of atrocities, hopelessness and uncertainties when Guru Gobind Singh was born in 1666 in Patna Sahib in Bihar. He came to be known as Guru Gobind Singh with the formation of the Khalsa in 1699, a historical moment not only in the Sikh history but that of the entire humanity. The principal focus of Khalsa was to fight against injustice, protect human and people’s religion. It was very much inspired by the Gita where Lord Krishna tells Arjuna in the battlefield of Mahabharata: “Whenever there is a decline in righteousness and an increase in sinfulness, O Arjun, at that time I manifest myself on Earth.” Guru Gobind Singh raised his army from among oppressed caste groups who were not permitted to keep weapons or even worship by Hindu priests and rulers. All those in the Khalsa were directed to use Singh, which means lion, as a common last name and shun using caste specific surnames. The 20,000 strong Khalsa was an inclusive force in all respects, a rare milestone in world military history. It was perhaps the first of its kind military formation in which people were enrolled irrespective of their caste, religion and beliefs. The post Khalsa period was fraught with a multitude of challenges for Guru Gobind Singh Ji. He fought several wars, which have very few parallels – Battle of Anandpur Sahib, Battle of Nirmoh, Battle of Satluj, Battle of Basauli, second Battle of Anandpur Sahib, Battle of Shahi Tibbi, Battle of Sirsa, Battle of Chamkaur Sahib and Battle of Khidrana. Each of these battles proves the multifacetedness of Guru Gobind Singh’s sublime personality. Earlier, Guru Ji fought against the army of 15 kings in which he got support from all sections of society. The Battle of Bhangani with Phadi Kings in September 1688 saw 22-year old Guru Gobind Singh commanding the army bubbling with self-confidence and enthusiasm. Every war he fought left him more confident, strengthened and determined to alleviate people’s miseries. His appeal among people went beyond all man-made barriers! Such was the aura of his divine personality that Guru Gobind Singh had disciples from the families of his enemy. For example, the mother of Bhim Chand, Rani Champadevi, was his disciple. She advised her son against fighting with Guru Gobind Singh, saying that he is a great Guru, and don’t fight with him but call him to our house. Similarly, when General Sayyid Khan was moving towards Anandpur to have a war with Guru Gobind Singh, his sister Nasreena tried to persuade him not to fight against him. Her husband and sons were already in the army of Guru Gobind Singh. In the war, Sayyid did not have courage to fight with Guru Gobind Singh. Khan was scared from within after seeing the valour of his soldiers, who had eliminated many Mughal soldiers. Khan was left awestruck when he saw the illuminating personality of Guru Gobind Singh on his iconic blue horse. Impressed by his divine persona, Khan did not fight with him. Guru Gobind Singh too forgave him. Transformed, Khan left the battlefield and went to the hills to live in seclusion. Such was the impact of Guru Gobind Singh’s personality even on his enemies. The vision behind the ‘Panj Pyare or Five Beloved Ones’ of Guru Gobind Singh was to establish the supremacy of those who were pure and liberated ones in sync with the spirit of Khalsa. He said: “The Khalsa is me and I the Khalsa both in flesh and spirit with no difference.” #latestpunjabsong #song #music #newsong #newpunjabisong #punjabisong #punjabimusic #punjabisongs #devotionalsongs #gurugobindsinghji
