<p class="C1">&#65279PIR&#256&#7750&#256, (P&#298R&#256&#7750&#256) BH&#256&#298, a resident of Chakk Ramd&#257s, now in Gujr&#257&#7749w&#257l&#257  district of Pakistan Punjab, was a worshipper of Sult&#257n S&#257<u>kh</u>&#299 Sarwar. As he once visited Amritsar, he had himself initiated a Sikh. According  to Bh&#257&#299 Santokh Si&#7749gh, <i>Sr&#299 Gur Prat&#257p S&#363r&#257j Granth</i>, the first duty he was assigned to by Gur&#363 Arjan was to tend fire and clean utensils in the Gur&#363 k&#257 La&#7749gar. He served with great dedication in the La&#7749gar. With equal fervour and diligence, he laboured at the site of the sacred pool, then being excavated under the supervision of the Gur&#363. Bh&#257&#299 P&#299r&#257&#7751&#257 was privileged to join Hargobind's wedding party in 1605. In 1606, he accompanied Gur&#363 Arjan on what turned out to be his last journey to Lahore. After Gur&#363 Arjan's martyrdom, Bh&#257&#299 P&#299r&#257&#7751&#257 continued to serve Gur&#363 Hargobind and commanded, under him, a squadron of 100 horsemen. He remained  in attendance on the Gur&#363 during his internment in the Gw&#257l&#299or Fort. According  to <i>Gurbil&#257s Chhev&#299&#7749 P&#257tsh&#257h&#299</i>, Bh&#257&#299 P&#299r&#257&#7751&#257 fell fighting in the battle of Amritsar. A shrine commemorating his martyrdom still exists in the holy city.</p>
