Summary[edit]
DescriptionBinod Singh, Kahan Singh, Baj Singh, Daya Singh, and Ram Singh depicted as a Panj Piare group from a gilded panel from Takht Hazur Sahib, Nanded.jpeg |
English: Gilded panel (repoussé plaque) from Takht Hazur Sahib, Nanded. Madho Das declares he is Guru Gobind Singh’s ‘Banda’ slave. Published in: 'In the Master's Presence: The Sikhs of Hazoor Sahib' (2008), by Nidar Singh Nihang, Parmjit Singh, London, Kashi House.
Rough translation and interpretation of the Gurmukhi inscriptions: Top, starting from left - Chela (meaning 'disciple'), Chela, Madhodas Bairagi, Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Patshah, Panj Piare (5 beloved ones; and they are numbered 1-5 in Gurmukhi numerals). The text between Madhodas and Guru Gobind Singh reads "I am your Banda (meaning man)...." Rest is illegible. Can't decipher the text that is in the lower-end (right of the middle). After the formation of the institution of Panj Piare in 1699, Guru Gobind Singh appointed five Sikhs in Nanded to accompany Madho Das (popularly known as Banda Bairagi) on his northwards mission to conquer Sirhind in 1708. The names of these five Panj Piare were: Binod Singh, Kahan Singh, Baj Singh, Daya Singh, and Ram Singh. They are likely the five Panj Piare depicted on this plaque, however their positioning is unknown. |
