Sikh Museum Mohali, Punjab:

Sikh History Museum

There was a reign of terror unleashed by Mughal emperor Aurangzeb against Hindus and Sikhs. They were either asked to convert to Island or get killed brutually. The ninth guru fo the Sikhs, Tegh Bahadur (1621-75) (like many of his followers) refused Mughal emperor Aurangzeb's order to convert to Islam and was brought to Delhi and beheaded on a site that later became an important gurdwara (abode of the guru, a Sikh temple) at Chandni Chowk, one of the old city's main thoroughfares.

These events led the tenth guru, Gobind Singh (1666-1708), to transform the Sikhs into a militant brotherhood dedicated to defense of their faith at all times. He instituted a baptism ceremony involving the immersion of a sword in sugared water that initiates Sikhs into the Khalsa (khalsa , from the Persian term for "the king's own," often taken to mean army of the pure) of dedicated devotion. Nihangs (warrior saints) belong to the same order that Guru Gobind Singh founded.

Like MANY other Indian communities my friend. Sikhs are today so because they believe in themselves rather than an alien concept of polity.

All of our states have produced some or the other great patriots who have stood for the nation. :)

Yes dude. As this thread about Sikhs so did put more emphasize on Sikh but it does not negate contribution of other. Don't take it otherwise. I do agree with you that every cummunity has its own rich past and so that we are world known as "Anekta Mein Ekta"!
