Guru Gobind Singh addressed the congregation from the entryway of a tent pitched on a hill ( now called Kesgarh Sahib ).
No one answered his first call, nor the second call, but on the third invitation, a person called Daya Ram ( later known as Bhai Daya Singh ) came forward and offered his head to the Guru.
Guru Gobind Singh took the volunteer inside the tent, and emerged shortly, with blood dripping from his sword.
These five, who were willing to sacrifice their lives for their Guru, were called Panj Piare (" the five beloved ones ").
These five volunteers were: Daya Ram ( Bhai Daya Singh ), Dharam Das ( Bhai Dharam Singh ), Himmat Rai ( Bhai Himmat Singh ), Mohkam Chand ( Bhai Mohkam Singh ), and Sahib Chand ( Bhai Sahib Singh ).
