<p class="C1">&#65279BH&#256N&#362, BH&#256&#298, a Bahil Khatr&#299 of R&#257jmahal in the present Santh&#257l Parganah of Bih&#257r, was a devout Sikh of the time of Gur&#363 Hargobind. According to Bh&#257&#299 Man&#299 Si&#7749gh, <i>Sikh&#257&#7749 d&#299 Bhagat M&#257l&#257</i>, Bh&#257&#299 Bh&#257n&#363 once asked Gur&#363 Hargobind, "O true king! Different religious books prescribe different paths to be followed such as austerities, pilgrimages, sacrifices, fasting, rituals, knowledge and meditation. Which is the best way to attaining the goal?" The Gur&#363 replied, "Cultivate God's Name with humility, and you will obtain liberation. "</p>
<p class="C1">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Bh&#257&#299 Bh&#257nu combined with his saintly genius a rare skill in arms. He was commander of the Sikh force in the battle of Amritsar against Mu<u>kh</u>lis <u>Kh</u>&#257n in May 1629. He engaged Shamas <u>Kh</u>&#257n, leading the Mu<u>gh</u>al vanguard, in single combat, and felled him with a single blow. At this the enemy charged at him from all sides. Bh&#257&#299 Bh&#257n&#363 fought back heroically and met a martyr's death.</p>
