Bachittar Natak
Composition attributed to Guru Gobind Singh
The Bachittar Natak or Bachitar Natak[note 1](Gurmukhi: ਬਚਿਤ੍ਰ ਨਾਟਕ, romanized: Bachittar Natak; 'The Wonderful Play') is partly an autobiography of Guru Gobind Singh.[3][4] The appellation Bachitar Natak is sometimes confusingly only applied around the Dasam Granth.[5][4] The Bachitar Natak Granth, not to be confused with the Bachittar Natak composition, contains a large corpus of the Dasam Granth canon.[6]
Overview
The Bachittar Natak is part of the Dasam Granth,[3] the second holy scripture of Sikhism.[3] The composition covers various aspects, including the lineage of Guru Gobind Singh,[5] the persecution of Guru Tegh Bahadur, the author's own rebirth,[3] and the defense and spread of dharma (righteousness).
It also includes descriptions of battles, hunting expeditions, and journeys in Punja
