Bhai Gurdas Jee’s Vaaran Bhai Gurdas Jee is a much honoured Sikh scholar, missionary, and literary master who is also respected for his Sikh way of life. He was a leading figure in Sikhism who enjoyed the company of Sri Guru Arjan Dev Jee, the fifth Sikh Guru.

It was under the supervision of the fifth Sikh Guru that he inscribed the first copy of the Sikh Scripture, then called The Adi Granth Sahib Jee, which is now respected as the eternal Guru of the Sikhs and is central of the Sikh religion. He was also responsible for various writings in his own right which have gained much respect in the Sikh community. His Varan (chapters of poetry) have been referred to by Sri Guru Arjan Dev Jee as the "Key" ("khungee") to Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee. Bhai Sahib is also responsible for composing the composition known as "Kabit Savaiye Bhai Gurdas".
