Some
Gurus played a very important part in the politics of India. When the tenth
Guru Goving Singh was asked who would be the Guru after him, he declared that
the eleventh Sikh Guru would be the Guru Granth Sahib.
He
did the ceremony that was done to appointing a Guru by placing a account and
proclaimed it as the Sikh Guru for all times to come.

Guru
Nanak, the founder of Sikhism, crucially changed the way people thought. What
Guru Nanak started is still being followed by Sikhs (meaning disciple) or
Sardars all over the world.
A
Guru's Sikh is ssupposed to carry these five things beginning with teh letter K
that is, Kesh (hair), Kirpan (dagger), Kachha (lower underclothes), Kara (steel
bangle) and Kangha (comb).
Sikhism,
in the beginning, believed in peace, but after the severe torture that Guru
Arjan Dev Ji had to undergo at the hands of Jahangir and at the cruel execution
of the ninth Sikh Guru, Guru Tegh Bahadur, the Sikhs decided to train
themselves in teh skills of warfare. This was done to fight against injustice
and tyranny.
The
Sikhs have proved to be one of the bravest fighting groups of India. This is
evident in the fights they fought against the Mughals.
