Title: Deep Kaur
Medium: Digital Art
Commissioner: Inder Bassi
The brave Deep Kaur earned great fame on a trip from her local village to see Guru Gobind Singh Ji at Anandpur Sahib.
The group she was travelling with had split into two separate parties, and it was whilst Deep Kaur travelled alone to catch up with the other group that she was encircled and harassed by four local thugs; throwing her to the ground in order to rob her.
When one thug bent over the prone Deep Kaur, she grabbed his sword and quickly chopped him down, before striking down the other three. When the other group of Sikhs approached, they saw Deep Kaur sitting on top of one of the corpses, with the other three around her.
When they reached Anandpur Sahib she received great praise from Guru Gobind Singh Ji, who instructed other women in the congregation to also adorn such a brave Goddess spirit.
