| | Golden Temple |
| | The Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji was made the fountainhead of the Sikh religion by Siri Guru Gobind Singh Ji. | | | The elevation of the Siri Guru Granth Sahib to the status of a guru, which was an unusual concept of leadership, was to work admirably over the centuries, with the scriptures providing spiritual direction to the Sikhs. | | | By building the Harmandir at a level lower than the surrounding land, he wanted to emphasize the inner strength that was provided by the faith, rather than draw attention to its external manifestations. |

| | Baba Deep Singh's story begins in Amritsar, the city that houses Harmandir Sahib (popularily known as the Golden Temple of Amritsar), the shrine that occupies a very special place in the hearts of Sikhs, for it is here that most of the holy tenets were propounded, propagated and enlarged. | | | In 1609, Guru Har Gobind Sahib Ji established the Sri Akal Takht Sahib - the Eternal Throne - opposite the Darbar Sahib, and it was on this throne that he sat wearing the two swords of Miri and Piri - temporal and spiritual power. | | | In 1704, Guru Sahib Ji left Anandpur Sahib for Damdama Sahib and had Deep Singh summoned to assist Bhai Mani Singh in calligraphing a new copy of Guru Granth Sahib Ji. |
