Revision Week 3 Why do we need a Guru?

Each Guru Sahib taught us something vital to help us connect with Maharaj TASK: Hands Up to identify the Guru Sahib.

Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj This Guru Sahib declared "There is no Hindu, nor any Mussalman." This Guru broke religious boundaries and promoted the love of humanity He also blessed Sikhs with the following three principles: 1.Naam Japna 2.Kirat Karnai 3.Vand Chakna This Guru travelled all of the world with his two companions to spread the message of love, equality of all humans and equality of women.

Sri Guru Angad Dev Ji Maharaj This Guru learnt the Sikh way of life, he memorised Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s words and took part in Kirtan, he served the sadh sangat(holy congregation) with great humility and sincerity. During the day he worked on Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s farm and in the evening served langar in the free-kitchen. This Guru introduced ‘Niskham Seva’.The institution of Langar was maintained and developed. This Guru started schools and also developed the Gurmukhi language in order to make education available to the downtrodden and the underprivileged of the society at that time. Guru Ji was also very keen on physical fitness, he ordered his followers, to take part in sports and community games after the morning prayers.

Sri Guru Amar Das Ji Maharaj Guru Ji (at the age of 62) had such deep and intense passion that he would find pleasure in doing every type of seva for his Master. For 13 years, early in the morning in pitch darkness he would fetch a pitcher of fresh river water for Guru Angad Dev Ji Maharaj’s bath, he would wash Guru Ji’s clothes and serve Guru Sahib Ji langar. After putting Guru Ji to rest, he returned to Goindwal, walking backwards in his supreme reverence for his spiritual master. This Guru further developed Langar (Free Kitchen) into an institution for service of the community and for channelling the charities of the Sikhs.

Sri Guru Ram Das Ji Maharaj This Guru emphasised seva and charity, he was a self-made man, who came to Guru Angad Dev Ji as a helpless orphan, but due to his devotion and humility was elevated to the position of Guru. His life is a beacon to the Sikhs that anyone of them can gain spiritual stature by discipline and selfless service. Guru Ji composed the Lavan (Wedding Song) and initiated a new type of simple and dignified marriage known as Anand Karaj (Ceremony of Bliss).

Sri Guru Arjan Dev Ji Maharaj During his childhood, he helped his father with the excavation of the Amrit-Sarovar (Pool of nectar) at Ramdaspur. He also began construction of a central temple Sri Harimandar Sahib Ji (known as the Golden Temple), he persuaded Sikhs to set up their businesses in this new town which came to be called Amritsar. Kurbani means sacrifice, Guru Ji had already sacrificed his all to service of the Sikh people. However, Guru Ji was taken to Lahore where he was tortured by pouring burning sand and boiling water over his body while sitting on a hot iron plate. Guru Ji’s body partly blistered and partly burnt was thrown into the river Ravi, in this way Guru Ji sacrificed his life to uphold the Sovereignty of the Sikh Scriptures and to resist injustice. For this reason Guru Ji is also known as the King of Martyrs.

Sri Guru Hargobind Ji Maharaj The first phase of Guru Ji’s life was devoted to building the morale of the Sikh community, Guru Ji’s mission was to make the Sikh community self-reliant and brave for the critical times ahead. In addition to participation in congregational prayer and acceptance of God’s will, Guru Ji also emphasised proficiency in martial arts. Guru Ji wore the two swords Miri and Piri representing Secular Sovereignty and Spiritual Authority and maintained a fully trained army. Guru Ji also had the Sri Akaal Takht (Throne of the Timeless Lord) built. He released 52 Princes and Rajas holding onto a special robe came out of prison, this is why Guru Ji is called “Bandi Chhor” (Liberator of the bounded).

Sri Guru Har Rai Ji Maharaj Guru Sahib would go to the jungle and bring back sick animals to help nurse them to better health. Guru Ji was a great humanitarian and during his time established a free hospital at Kiratpur, where he kept popular and rare plants for use in herbal medicines. There, he maintained a zoo and many beautiful gardens. He saw the manifestation of God in all nature.

Sri Guru Har Krishen Ji Maharaj At the time, a severe epidemic of cholera and smallpox was ravaging Delhi. The young Guru began to tend to the sufferers irrespective of their cast and creed. Guru Ji dipped his toe into the water a Bangla Sahib and blessed the water which was used to treat the sick people. He served the sick with food and medicine. During Guru Ji’s short reign, Guru Ji inspired the spirit of help and assistance in his followers and declared that the followers of Guru Nanak Dev Ji must always be ready to help others irrespective of the recipient’s colour, caste, creed and religion. Guru Ji proved through his missionary work that spiritual attainment and divine wisdom does not depend on age and that it was a gift from God that could be bestowed on anyone.

Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji Maharaj He built the city that his son would enlarge and rename Anandpur Sahib. He sacrificed his own life, facing down Emperor Aurangzeb on behalf of the Kashmiri Hindus, ending Aurangzeb's threat to either convert to Islam or be executed. Guru Ji symbolised the triumph of good over evil, Guru Ji’s martyrdom unique in the history of mankind, inspired many Sikhs to lay down their lives for noble causes and moral values.

Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj Guru Ji was conscious of his mission and decided to find ‘committed followers’ who would stand by him no matter what. Thus in 1699 at Anandpur Sahib, Guru Ji carried out God’s command to create the “Order Of The Khalsa”. Five devoted Sikhs offered total loyalty including readiness to die for Guru Ji, they were initiated by a new ceremony “Amrit” (the Nectar of Immortality) or “Khand-di-Pahul”. Guru Ji launched the Khalsa onto a spiritual crusade to fight voluntarily against all types of tyranny and injustice. Guru Ji’s says “All human beings are the reflection of one and the same Lord. Recognise ye the whole human race as one." We must serve the WHOLE of HUMANITY.
