Guru Gobind Singh Biography

Guru Gobind Singh was the last and the Tenth Guru of the Sikhs. The Sikhs believe that after his death 'Guru Granth Sahib' was given the status of the Guru by Guru Gobind Singh himself. The Sikhs firmly believe in the teachings enshrined in Shri Guru Granth Sahib and do not tolerate any dissenting group.

The contribution of Guru Gobind Singh to Sikh Panth is unparalleled in the history of humankind. He sacrificed his four sons, father, and mother for the sake of the Sikh religion. He fought a number of battles against the Mughals and several rulers of the hill States. In 1699 A.D. he founded the Khalsa Panth. After this, all the Nanakpanthis became baptized Sikhs adhering to Five K's.

In addition to several manuscripts relating to Guru Gobind Singh, a large number of books in English, Punjabi, Hindi, and Urdu have been written. An attempt has been made to cover all the books however, entries of some books may not be on the list for want of availability. Articles that appeared in the newspapers have not been covered for lack of references and footnotes.

This bibliography covers books in English, Punjabi, Hindi, and Urdu; selected articles in English & Punjabi; Ph.D. theses and manuscripts available in Bhai Gurdas Central Library, Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar. In preparing this bibliography the major role has been played by Mrs. Kulvir Kaur Assistant Librarian in Bhai Gurdas Central Library.
