King Kharag Singh (Sri Kharagesh) was an unconquerable warrior who fought a furious battle with Lord Krishna, in which Lord Krishna accepted his defeat to end the battle.

Guru Gobind Singh mentioned his battle in Dasam Granth in Krishna Avtar section in details which is full of Beer rass.

King Kharag Singh came from Jarasndha side to fight with Lord Krishna.

Lord Krishna tested various Yadavs, Kings, All Deities, Demons, Pandavas, Kauravas, Lord Shiva and Shivgans, Lord Ganesha, Lord Kartikeya, Lord Varuna, Kings from Persia (Khans) and even himself but no one was able to stop him.

King Kharag Singh hit Lord Krishna 17 times and made him unconscious. Even he pulled Krishna by his hairs and made Lord Krishna ashamed of his skills. Lord Krishna and Lord Brahma used deceit to kill him but he was not conquerable. King Kharag Singh destroyed ego of everyone in battlefield. King Kharag Singh even hit blow to Lord Shiva and made him unconscious.

Then all together everyone accepted their defeat and requested Kharag Singh to stop battle as he is unconquerable then only King Kharag Singh left war arena.

Sikh scholars calls Kharag Singh the form of the true form of Khalsa.
