MANOHAR DAS. BHAI, a great grandson of Guru Amar Das and a distant cousin of Guru Hargobind, was a devoted Sikh, known for his piety and humility. He had been brought up by Guru Arjan himself. As he grew up, he started performing kirtan at Gurdwara Chaubara Sahib and Gurdwara Baoli Sahib at Goindval. Guru Hargobind was at Kiratpur when news reached him of the death of Manohar Das at Goindval. The Guru was much grieved and observed formal mourning. Bhai Kamala, a Kashmir! Sikh in the Guru`s retinue, spoke of the virtuous character and devotion of Bhai Manohar Das.
