Sri Guru Angad Dev Jee, (Bhai Lahna jee) was born in the village named Sarai Naga (Matte Di Sarai) district Muktsar (Punjab). Guru Jee was the son of a petty trader named Pheru jee. Guru Jeeโs mother's name was Mata Ramo jee (also Known as Mata Sabhirai, Mansa Devi, Daya Kaur). Baba Narayan Das Trehan was guru jeeโs grandfather, whose ancestral house was at Matte-di-Sarai near Mukatsar.
Sri Guru Angad Dev Jee made extensive efforts to spread the teachings of Guru Nanak Dev Jee far and wide. Guru Jee introduced a new alphabet known as #Gurmukhi Script, modifying the old Punjabi Scriptโs characters. Guru Jee also improved literacy among the Sikhs and started school at Khadur Sahib to teach #Gurmukhi to the children. Guru Jee encouraged physical health building through sports and wrestling as well as mental health through discipline and truthful living.
Guru Angad Dev Jee consolidated the institution of #Langar started by Guru Nanak Dev Jee. Guru Jee enjoined the Sikhs to do #selfless service to the human race and surrender to the Will of God.
Guru Angad Dev Jee was a man of #humility, #wisdom, and #generosity. Guru Jeeโs wife Mata Khivi Jee is a known person to serve the #Sangat in Langar.
Guru Angad Dev Jee followed the steps of the first Guru in constructing cities. This was part of the vision of the Guru Sahibs to broaden the horizons of the #Sikh People and show them that Sikhs should not confine themselves to thinking small but to thinking big. Guru Angad Dev Jee founded the city of #Khadoor Sahib which became a center for education, sports, learning, #Seva (selfless service), and #bhakti (devotional worship).

Sri Guru Ramdas Jee was a man of considerable merit. Guru Jee became famous for his piety, devotion, energy, and eloquence. Sri Guru Amardas Jee found him capable in every respect and worthy of the office of Guruship. Sri Guru Ramdas Jee laid the foundation stone of Chak Ramdas or Ramdas Pur, which is now called Amritsar. For this purpose, he purchased land from the zamindars of the villages: Tung, Gilwali, and Gumtala, and began digging of Santokhsar Sarovar. Later on, he suspended the work on Santokhsar and concentrated his attention on digging Amritsar Sarovar. Bhai Sahlo Jee and Baba Budha Jee, the two devoted Sikhs were assigned the supervising work.
The new city (Chak Ramdas Pur) flourished soon as it was situated at the center of international trade routes. It grew into an important center of trade in Punjab after Lahore. Sri Guru Ramdas Jee himself invited many merchants and artisans from different walks of life and trades. Later on, it proved to be a step of far-reaching importance. It provided a commonplace of worship to the Sikhs and paved the way for the future guidelines for Sikhism as a different religion. Sri Guru Ramdas Jee introduced the Masand system in place of the ManJee system and this step played a great role in the consolidation of Sikhism.
Sri Guru Ramdas Jee strengthened Sikhism a step further by composing Four Lawans and advised the Sikhs to recite them in order to solemnize the marriages of their children. Thus, Guru Jee introduced a new matrimonial system based upon Sikhism instead of Hinduโs Vedi system. This distinct marriage code for the Sikhs separated them from the orthodox and traditional Hindu system. also made rapprochement with different sects of Udasis through Baba Shri Chand Jee. Guru Jee like his predecessors carried forward the tradition of Guru ka Langer. Superstitions, caste systems, and pilgrimages were strongly decried.
Guru Jee wrote 638 hymns in 30 ragas, these include 246 Padei 138 Saloks, 31 Ashtpadis, and 8 Vars and are a part of Guru Granth Sahib Jee.

Born to Bhai Jetha Jee (later Guru Raam Das Jee) and Mata Bani Jee (Guru Amar Das Jeeโs daughter) in 1563, Guru Arjan Dev Jee shared a wonderful relationship with his Grandfather - Guru Amar Das Jee. Guru Sahib was very fond of His grandson and loved to play with him. One day, when Guru Amar Das Jee were resting, the child Arjan crawled towards them and tried to climb on to the bed. Upon seeing this, Mata Bhani Jee immediately tried to stop him but Guru Amar Das Jee arose from resting, and laughed. They held Arjan and lovingly said, โDohita, Bani Ka Bohitaโ - โOh my Grandson, you will be the Vessel of Gurbani, a ship to take mankind across the terrifying world-oceanโ. These words stand true today - with a total of 2218 shabads, Guru Arjan Dev Jee has composed the MOST Gurbani in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee.
