The Letter of Victory
Resting in the Malwa jungles after the loss of his family, the Guru wrote the 'Zafarnama' to Aurangzeb. Instead of a plea, it was a stinging indictment of the Emperor's broken oaths and a declaration of moral victory. He told the King of India that although his four sons were killed, the 'coiled cobra' of the Khalsa was still very much alive.
