Sri Amardas went to Bibi Amro’s house to find out where she has heard these hymns form and who has composed the hymns.  She told him they were the hymns of Guru Nanak Dev Ji, which she had learned from her father, Guru Angad Dev Ji.  Sri Amardas requested to Bibi Amro if she would take him to the Guru Angad Dev Ji.  

Bibi Amro and Sri Amardas went to Khadur to meet with the Guru Angad Dev Ji.  On their arrival, Sri Amardas was surprised to find the atmosphere over there.  There he saw people singing the hymns he heard from Bibi Amro.  He fell at Guru Angad Dev Ji’s feet and begged Guru to treat him as a seeker of truth, not as a relative.  Sri Amardas asked Guru Angad Dev Ji, if he could stay and help in the common kitchen (Langar).

Sri Amardas started working in the common kitchen and listened to the hymns of the Guru.  He would get up early in the morning and get water for Guru Sahib’s bath.  

Guru Angad Dev Ji was very happy with humility, devotion and selfless service of Sri Amardas; He told all the Sikhs that Sri Amardas would be their third Guru.  

After the death of Guru Angad Dev Ji, Sri Amardas Ji proceeded to Goindwal to carry his duties as the third guru.  

Guru Amardas held his community together in the years of his leadership.  He laid down simple ceremonies and rites of Birth, Marriage, and Death.  The Guru-ka-Langar (common kitchen) became more renowned in his time.  Guru Amardas Ji expected every visitor to take a part in food, before seeing him.

Even the Mughal Emperor  Akbar  had to take part in the Langar before he could see the Guru.  He sat along with his solders on the floor and ate Langar.  Akbar noticed that how a large amount of food was being distributed to one and all.

Guru Amardas initiated the Manji order to work as missionaries and to create awareness about the Sikhism.  There were 22 Manji’s (Preaching groups) in different places, their duties, apart from missionary work they collected donations from the devotes for construction of wells and the maintenance of Langar.  

Guru Amardas contributed 907 hymns including Pauri’s and Salokas, which later on the 5th Guru incorporated in Guru Granth Sahib.  

Sewa and Simran were the two major constituents of the daily routine of the visiting Sikhs.  Guru Amardas made the Langar, as an Essential part of the Sikh Conjuration.  

Guru Amardas Ji left this world on September 1st 1574.  He remained the Guru of the Sikh for twenty-two years.
