Which Sikh Guru called himself the 'Sachcha Badshah'?

Answer 1

Guru Hargobind Singh proclaimed himself as Sacha Badshah. He was the sixth guru of the Sikh community. This name was accepted by his followers because he was not only brave and handsome, but pure and holy at the same time.

The Guru used all emblems associated with royalty such as a crest and hawk, two swords and an umbrella. One of the two swords represented Spiritual Power while the other stood for Military Power.
