He was married to Gujari in 1633. In 1656, they moved to the village of Bakala where Tegh Bahadur would spend a lot of time in contemplation and prayers.
His father had not chosen him as his successor as he felt that the Sikhs at that time needed a worldly leader.

Guru Hargobind elected his grandson Guru Har Rai as his successor. After Har Rai’s death at the age of 31, his son Har Kishan became the seventh Guru at the age of five. Har Kishan, however, died of a disease at the age of 7 in 1664.
Before his death, Guru Har Kishan had pronounced that the next Guru would be found in Bakala. This was followed by many ‘pretenders’ in Bakala each claiming to be the Guru.
And hence Guru teg bahadur became the Ninth Guru,He is also known as Real Guru.

Guru’s promise of protection to the persecuted Kashmiri Pandits also led to his being summoned to Delhi by the Emperor. While the Sikh faith was gathering strength, Aurangzeb was following a policy of religious discrimination and persecution in many places.
On 24 November 1675, the Guru was publicly beheaded on the orders of Aurangzeb for refusing to accept the authority of Mughal Emperor, at Chandni Chowk in Delhi. Gurdwara Sis Ganj Sahib was built in 1783 at the place where he was beheaded.
We,Hindus will never forget the Balidan of Guru teg bahdur ji 🙏🙏🙏
