1. The Founder Guru nanak ji Sahib faced tyranny of rulers RIGHT ON. No mincing words and no fear - even sent to priosn and perform heavy labour.
2. Guru Angad Ji faced the naked sword of Humayun without the slightest fear and in full calmness sans anger.
3. Guru Arjun Ji the writer of Sukhmani (described as bani not worthy of inspiring bir rass !!) sat on the Hot Plate, was placed in Boiling water, had heated sand poured over his naked body and head in the hootest days of June summer in India which has degree of heat reaching 50-60 degree celcius in the shade...and Never uttered a word of anger/hate/regret/sadness against his tormentors !! supremely Calm.
Baba Banda Singh bahadur....sits calmly while the Zalaad places his toddler son on his lap...RIPS out the HEART of the Baby and puts it to the mouth of Banda Singh....
Then Hot rods are used to pierce Banda Singhs eyes one by one....
Then Heated Zamoors..PINCERS are used to BITE OUT portions of Banda Singh's MUSCLES....all over his body...bit by bit....
NOT A WORD OF ANGER...PAIN...HATRED....sadness...ONLY SUPREME PEACE and CALMNESS on banda's FACE....as his body is torn apart bit by bit..
UNTIL IN COMPLETE FRUSTRATION...the Emperor frakhysyr orders an end to this by ordering the Zalaad to CUT off Banda's Head and be done with... 700 SIKHS DIED in exactly the SAME WAY with Banda Singh Ji in OPEN PUBLIC SPECTACLE out of which ONE was just a small BOY of 7 years of AGE !! Britishers of the East India company were amongst this crowd of spectators.
Just as in Guru Arjun Jis case..in Guru Teg bahadur jis case..and in Banda Singh Jis case..and HUNDREDS of thousands of other SINGHS..the TORTURERS LOST !!!
4 Guru Hargobind Ji had an ARMY and WON ALL FOUR Battles with professional Mughal soldiers/gretaer numbers and more weapons etc than the SIKHS who were NOT professional soldiers but kirtees.
5. Guru Har rai Ji had an armed Force of 2000 Horsemen.
6. Guru GOBIND SINGH JI fought and WON the Battle of BHANGGANNI long before 1699 !!
Again Sikh Kirtees fought against well armed professional soldiers. Among those who fought on Guru Jis side with extraordinary Valour were DERVISHES or religious followers of Pir Budhu Shah. :advocate:
It is a FALSE PREMISE that a BATTLE has to be fought with ANGER....the entire Philosophy of SGGS is SANS ENMITY...sans ANGER...the Soldiers of SGGS are not quite the same as other soldiers we find in other armies..THATS THE DIFFERENCE between the Sikhs fighting on the side of Guru hargobind Ji...and thsoe on the Mughal side....Thats the difference between the Soldiers that DALLAA Offered to Guru Gobind Singh ji...and the TWO SINGHS that came running to be TESTED by Guru Gobind Singh ji's New RIFLE !! Zameen Asmaan da farak...
Bhagat Singh ji..THAT 'Zameen asmaan da farak" is what makes some Singhs "squirm" inwardly when they see your ART...Many of my own students just cannot see Sahibzadah Ajit Singh Ji the way you depict him...simply because the Sahibzadah is NOT that "ordinary soldier" who fights in ANGER..KRODH....he is a SINGH who has way more OF BHAI KHANIYAH JI.....and Baba Deep Singh Ji....than say a Paindeh Khan or some other mughal soldier..or any other soldier fighting...or even an american marine in Vietnam with a sub machine gun firing it at villagers under battle fatigue conditions...
The SIKH connection is becasue he derives his...inner strength form SGGS and this strength stops ANGER/KRODH from spinning out of Control.
