BHIKHARl, BHAI. Bhabra by caste, was a devoted Sikh of the time of Guru Arjan. He lived in the town of Gujrat. Bhai Gurdas, Varan, XI. 30, lists him among prominent Sikhs of the time. He plied an honest trade, helped needy Sikhs and other holy men and recited the sacred word. Once, as says Bhai Mani Singh, Sikhan di Bhagat Mala, a Sikh waited on Guru Hargobind, Guru Arjan *s successor, and begged to be shown a model Sikh. The latter directed him to Bhai Bhikhari.
