Guru Gobind Singh ji died on 21 October, 1708 at Nanded, Maharashtra, India and passed the Guruship to Guru Granth Sahib ji.
Guru Gobind Singh Ji died at the age 42 on October 7th, 1708.
Guru Gobind Singh was born on December 22, 1666 and died on October 7, 1708. Guru Gobind Singh would have been 41 years old at the time of death or 348 years old today.
The Mughals, suffering mighty losses against the tiny Sikh fighting force, apparently killed two of Guru Gobind Singh's elder sons at the battle and decimated much of the 40 warriors of Sikh army (a hundred thousand vs 40). Guru Gobind Singh, in response, sent Aurangzeb an eloquent yet defiant letter entitled the Zafarnama (Notification of Victory), written in beautiful Arabic, accusing the emperor of treachery, and claiming a moral victory. The Guru prophesised that Mughal rule in India would soon come to an end. On receipt of this letter, Aurangzeb is said to have invited Guru Gobind Singh to meet in Ahmednagar, but Aurangzeb died before Guru Gobind Singh arrived. Debatebly, some Sikhs hold to the notion that it was the shock upon reading the letter that lead to the King's ill health and ultimately his demise. Of course, Aurangzeb was almost 90 years old when this happened.
Clarification in bold. The line of human Gurus was ended by the departure of Guru Gobind Singh Ji and Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji became the eleventh and eternal Guru of Sikhs.Therefore, Sikhism still has Guru and always will have one. The 10th Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji, announced that our final Guru would be the Guru Granth Sahib Ji, which contains all the teachings of the 10 Gurus. The Guru Granth Sahib Ji is our holy book, but we tend to not refer to as a book but a living Guru. We treat it as we would if we had a real life Guru in front of us.
The human last guru was Guru Goblind Singh but when he died its the *Guru Granth Sahib that is the Sikh Guru Now. *The Guru Granth Sahib is the Sikh Holy Book like Christians have a Bible etc.
the turban is an article of faith that represents honour, self-respect, courage, spirituality, and piety. The Khalsa Sikhs, who adorn the Five Ks, wear the turban partly to cover their long, uncut hair (kesh). The turban is mostly identified with the Sikh males, although some Sikh women also wear turban. The Khalsa Sikhs regard the turban as an important part of the unique Sikh identity. They are easily recognizable by their distinctive turbans.The turban is a symbol of spirituality and holiness in Sikhism.The turban is also a symbol of honour and self-respect. In the Punjabi culture, those who have selflessly served the community are traditionally honoured with turbans.The Sikh warriors (Khalsa) wear turban, partly to cover their long hair, which is never cut, as per the wish of their last human Guru,Guru Gobind Singh. There are many references in the Sikh history that describe how Guru Gobind Singh personally tied beautifuldumalas (turbans) on the heads of both his elder sons Ajit Singh and Jujhar Singh, and how he personally gave them arms, decorated them like bridegrooms, and sent them to the battlefield at Chamkaur Sahib where they both died as martyrs. A saffron-colored turban is especially identified with courage, sacrifice and martyrdom.
