The Story
The Khanda (Punjabi: ਖੰਡਾ, khaṇḝĝ) is one of most important symbols of Sikhism. It is a collection of four weapons commonly used by Sikhs at the time of Guru Gobind Singh.
Nirbhau (meaning without fear) and Nirvair (meaning without hate) are words from the Mool Mantra, the most important composition contained within the Sri Guru Granth Sahib, the holy scripture of the Sikhs.
