Passing the Flame to Arjan
In his final days, the Guru chose his youngest son, Arjan, as his successor. He recognized Arjan's poetic soul and deep spiritual longing, which were captured in the letters Arjan sent from Lahore. Guru Ram Das Ji merged with the Divine Light, leaving behind a legacy of love, the city of Amritsar, and a structured, flourishing Panth.
