He was all ego, no truth - claiming divine connection while drowning in pride. When Guru Nanak Dev Ji Himself came to bless him, Sahoo Suhagan didn't even bow. Yet he was saved. Why would Waheguru save someone who wouldn't even surrender?

"Sri Nanak Prakash is a detailed historical account of the life of Guru Nanak Dev Ji. It was written by Mahakavi (great poet) Bhai Santokh Singh Ji in 1824 (AD), and represents one of the most comprehensive and beautifully written accounts of Guru Ji’s life. It is usually associated as a part of the greater text known as Sri Gurpartap Suraj Granth (aka Suraj Prakash) which details the historical accounts of all 10 Guru Sahibs in poetic form. It is an ocean of bliss, knowledge and experience. It is said that if one listen to the history of the lives of all 10 Gurus through these texts with complete devotion and faith, they can reach enlightenment.

Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji becomes the first Guru to sit on a throne. Guru Ji releases fresh Hukamnamas to instruct Sikhs to bring weapons and horses instead of other gifts normally accepted in the Guru's House. Thousands of Sikhs are gathering at Amritsar ready for the accesssion of Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji to the throne. Masands were busy organising. Everyone was craving for the sight of Guru Ji and they stood on the route which would be taken by Guru Ji. 
Guru Ji left his residence and went directly to the Harmandir Sahib and prostrated before the Adi Granth. Thereafter, Guru Ji sat on the newly constructed Akaal Takht. Shastars were brought by Bhai Gurdas Ji. Guru Ji then performed an Ardas before the Shastars by invocation of 5 Gurus and then carried 2 tulwars, a quiver and a bow. Guru Ji then sat on the Takht in a warrior stance (Bir Asan). Baba Buddha Ji with folded hands requested, “Dear Guru Ji, Warriors of the past had adopted a single sword but you have taken two. What is the reason?” Guru Ji replied, “One sword is Miri for the temporal and another is Piri is spiritual power. Only those from the two will be saved who come to the sanctuary.” Sikhs brought various weapons and horses for Guru Ji and prostrated on Guru Ji’s feet. Everyone was blessed with Guru’s happiness. Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji personally inspects the weapon. The Sikhs who brings money are not given much attention. Court lasted for 6 hours. It was understood by everyone that Guru Ji is pleased on those who bring horses and weapons. Guru Ji returns to his residence on a horse. Stables and lodging for warriors were instructed to be constructed immediately. 

Gurpertap Suraj Granth Ras 4 Chapter 43

At the Guru’s residence, Mata Gangga Ji saw Guru Ji returning on a horse from the rooftop. Looking at her son wearing a yellow Jama, she was extremely pleased and elated. Mata Ji then asks on the number of Sikhs who attended and did Guru Ji receive the gifts that were asked? Guru Ji replies, “Dear mother, all of the Sikhs from the near and adjoining countries visited with many gifts. The Sanggat has pleased me with their gifts. Some gave weapons and some horses. I am now going to make a brave diehard army. Big heaps of gifts are lying around. Guru Nanak’s Sikhi is everywhere.” Mata Gangga Ji was pleased. Guru Ji then rested for 48 minutes before leaving for hunting. As the news of recruitment of an army by Guru Ji spread to Majha and Doaba, 400 gathered. All came to Akaal Takht and prostrated before Guru Ji and stood. Guru Ji sent a Sikh to enquire why aren’t they sitting down? The soldiers replied, “We are from Majha and Doaba and have come here for an employment as soldiers.” The all-knower Guru Hargobind Sahib knew of their real identity and employed all the 400 immediately. Each soldier was inspected personally by Guru Ji who were mostly youths from ages of 20-25 years old. They were given uniforms and weapons. Mughals considered men like these as illiterate and were never recruited in the Mughal army. The 400 men accompanied Guru Ji for hunting. 
Then came a ballad by the name of Abdul whose voice used to instil bravery in the warriors. Abdul was employed with lucrative salary and he used to sing ballads (Vaar) which contained stories of brave warriors of the past. This used to increase the morale of the soldiers and warrior Sikhs. Slowly, the power of Guru’s house was increasing. Everyday new gifts of weapons and horses used to come to Akaal Takht. A Nishan Sahib and Nagara used to accompany Guru Ji. Like this Divali passed. 
A King from the south gifted an elephant, five horses, weapons and clothes. All of these gifts were ceremoniously gifted to Guru Arjan Dev Ji through an Ardas performed by Bhai Gurdas Ji. Later, the elephant was given to the ballad. 
A new tradition was started by Guru Hargobind Sahib that upon the demise of a family member, a good gift as per own capacity to be donated to the Gurdwara for the betterment of Panth.
