2. Baba Deep Singh Ji was a master of many languages including Gurumukhi, Sanskrit, Persian, Arabic and several other languages. While at Anandpur Sahib, he immersed himself in his studies of Sikh philosophy and the Sri Guru Granth Sahib, the Sikh holy book of scriptures. It is difficult for us to master a single language even though we learn it from childhood.
3. Guru Gobind Singh Ji also taught him the art of horsemanship, hunting, arms training and the use of the bow (archery) and other weapons. At the age of 20, he becomes the bravest warrior. Even today, his life serves as an example for each one of us on how to live.
4. Baba Deep Singh Ji hand wrote many copies of Guru Granth Sahib. Guru Gobind Singh Ji recited the entire Guru Granth Sahib while Baba Deep Singh Ji and Bhai Mani Singh Ji wrote out the text and distributes it to Sikhs. After its completion, Baba Deep Singh Ji continued, for several years; to hand write four additional copies of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. These four copies were handed over to Akal Takht Sahib, Takht Patna Sahib, Takht Hazur Sahib and Takht Anandpur Sahib. Later he writes another copy of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib in Arabic script and sent it to the Middle East.
During the clash, both Jahan Khan and Baba Ji swung their weapons with great force, leaving both of their heads separated from their bodies. One of the Sikh reminded him of the vowed to die in the precincts of the Golden Temple. He kept his promise by continuing after picking up his head and carrying it on his palm, whilst continuing to fight, reached the periphery of Harimander Sahib where he breathed his last.

Thanks Kuldeep Veerji for your valuable comment. You have touched the very controvertial part of the discussion. In my opinion, Yes you are absolutely right, baba deep singh was mortally wounded with a deep cut to his head. He took the support of his left hand to hold his head & removing the enemies from his way with the strokes of his double-edged sword with his right hand and reached the Harmindar Sahib where he breathed his last.
While this seems to be a false story where Baba deep singh ji was fighting with his head in one hand and his sword in the other. And as you correctly pointed that it is a big contrary to the Sikh teachings.
i share the sentiments expressed in the above comments
we tend to exaggerate this episode and many other parts of the sikh history which in fact offend the credibility/sensibility
of the PANTH
THANKS
Mostly today peoples are without the knowledge of suoer power and just talk. Jassa singh ahluwalia was wounded in Ghalughara how many times?
why Aurangzeb kept BabaRam Rai with him and allowed a jagir.
why Baba Atal rai Sahib left his body. These all things are for those who keep sprirual power and not for simple human being.
I spent my childhood with Sant Baba Shahbeg singh ji and he told me my future and age also.Do you know every thing is going as baba ji told.
You know that in Chamkor war only 40 sikhs were againt 1000000 Mughal soldiers and every times guru ji sent only five sikhs to fight against this crowd od one million.Here it is clear that one sikh ws fighting with 200000 but not with 125000.
Mostly sikhs are either illiterate or without spritual knowldge.

kotan mein koi narayan mile cheet

I think i need not to clear about the history of great great saint solider, our baba ji. I do not found anything insulting like mentioned by kuldeep singh. Baba ji earned this shaheede by true love, dedication and discipline thought by Guru Govind Singh Sahib Ji Maharaj.

Thank you so much for this great article, Puneet Veerji. I learned a lot. However you should always defend the truth and not cave in, no matter what the cost, against those who cannot comprehend or try to undermine our incredible history.
These MISCONCEPTIONS as you claim preached by FALSE BABAs. You could not be more totally wrong. This is well known HISTORY preached by the SAINTS. True Saints such as Sant Jarnail Singh Ji Bhindranwale. Who are you to question the teachings of the Saints? Do you know more?
Any Sikh who is aware of history, knows WITHOUT QUESTION that Baba Deep Singh Ji carried their fully severed head on the palm of their hand while continuing to fight. The mughals were so terrified that they fled in sheer terror upon witnessing this sight.
During the battle of Chamkaur Sahib as Guru Gobind Singh Ji (according to history at Gurdwara Tari Sahib) there was a total combined force of the Mughal Army in India plus the Hills Rajas and others that totaled 4 million troops. Only 2 million could surround Chamkaur Sahib directly, while the other 2 million remained close behind in reserve. This shows how afraid the Mughals and Hindus were of the power and prestige of Guru Sahib.
Guru Sahib showed how 40 Sikhs can taken on 4,000,000 and win the battle. Each of the groups of 5 Sikhs that bounded out of the gates of Chamkaur Sahib (like the Helms Deep ending from the Lord of The Rings movies) fought for approximately 2 hours each and caused heavy losses for the Mughal and Hindu armies. The Sikhs owned a semi-circle perimeter of approximately 100 feet from the front gate of Chamkaur Sahib that no Mughal dared to cross. The young Baba Jughar Singh Ji full of Bir Ras would stare down and dare the Mughals to cross this line which the small band of Sikhs had claimed as their territory. Such was the courage and conviction of the Khalsa.
Unless your mind cannot handle the truth once again, and you prefer to promote the false story taught to undermined Sikh History that Guru Gobind Singh Ji went into a tent and tried to trick the sangat by beheading some goats and using their blood to mislead the Sikhs. (Guru Sahib is all powerful and does not need to trick anyone).
I am not sikh but I am big fan of baba Ji
and we are just like sand in front of them
we dont hv any right to judge them
nice information
but come people are judging them in above comment
