Chapter One: Introduction

Shri Guru Angad Sahib Ji, before being appointed as the Second Guru of the Sikhs, was known as Bhai Lehna Ji. He was born on 31st March, 1505, in a village named Harike in Ferozpur district in Punjab.

Bhai Lehna’s father, Pheru Ji, was a small businessman. His mother was Mata Ramo Ji. She is also known as Mata Sabhirai, Mansa Devi, and Daya Kaur.

Bhai Lehna’s grandfather was Baba Narayan Das Trehan. His ancestral house was situated at Matte-di-Sari near Mukatsar. His grandfather went back to his ancestral house in his last years.

Since Bhai Lehna Ji was born in a devout Hindu family, his mother’s influence was great on his life. He began to worship Goddess Durga (A mythological Goddess in Hindu Religion).
