He was arrested in Bihar and brought to Delhi by a ruler who had solidified his power at the Battle of Samugarh.
A legend says that this man rebuked the merchant Makhan Shah for offering him two gold coins, because the Shah had previously pledged 500 gold coins to anyone who could save his belongings in a storm. That incident caused the Shah to identify him as a holy man, while he was meditating for 20 years in Bakala. He was arrested in Bihar and brought to Delhi by a ruler who had solidified his power at the Battle of Samugarh. That occurred after this man prevented the conversion of 500 Pandits who sought his counsel. As a result, he gained the epithet Hind-di-Chaadar, or the Shield of India. This man's son emerged from a tent five times with a bloody sword to test the loyalty of his followers, and thus founded the Khalsa order. Beheaded in 1675 by Aurangzeb, this man succeeded Har Krishan as guru, and was the son of Hargobind. For 10 points, name this ninth guru of Sikhism, the father of Gobind Singh.
