Guru Gobind Singh was the last Guru of the Sikhs who always preached piety, simple life, dedication to noble causes, truth and fearlessness. The great sacricice of Guru Teg Bahadur generated the spirit of sacrifice in his mind and heart. He led a disciplined life and opposed violence and injustice along with the cooperation and support of his dedicated workers. The founder of the 'Khalsa' brought about the sense of confidence and bravery among the Sikhs. The theme has deep bearing, in twenty-three chapters, on his ideology-based on socio-economic, religious and political philosophy. People gathered in thousands to listen to his religious discourses.

This work would be useful for teachers, research scholars, students and all those who would be interested in the religious ideology of Guru Gobind Singh.
