Guru Hari Krishan

The correct answer is: A. Guru Gobind Singh.

Guru Gobind Singh was the tenth and final human Guru of Sikhism. He was born in Patna Sahib, Bihar, India in 1666. He was the son of Guru Tegh Bahadur and Mata Gujri. Guru Gobind Singh was a great warrior and poet. He is also known for founding the Khalsa Panth, the collective body of all Sikhs.

The Khalsa Panth was founded in 1699 at Anandpur Sahib, Punjab, India. Guru Gobind Singh initiated five men into the Khalsa Panth. These five men became known as the Panj Pyare, or the Five Beloved Ones. The Panj Pyare were the first members of the Khalsa Panth.

Guru Gobind Singh introduced a new baptism ceremony for the Khalsa Panth. This ceremony is known as the Amrit Sanskar. The Amrit Sanskar is a very important ceremony for Sikhs. It is a ceremony that marks the beginning of a Sikh’s commitment to the Khalsa Panth.

The Amrit Sanskar requires Sikhs to observe the five K’s. The five K’s are:

  • Kesh: uncut hair
  • Kirpan: a sword
  • Kachha: short pants
  • Kanghi: a wooden comb
  • Kara: a steel bracelet

The five K’s are symbols of the Sikh faith. They represent the Sikh commitment to truth, courage, purity, and equality.

Guru Gobind Singh was a great leader and teacher. He is remembered as the tenth and final human Guru of Sikhism. He is also remembered as the founder of the Khalsa Panth.
