Baba Budda ji was a very profound figure in Sikhism, was born on 6 October 1506 at the village of Katthu Nangal (northeast of Amritsar). He was originally named as Bura and was the only son of Bhai Sugghahe. Baba Budha Ji have seen eight different Gurus during his lifetime. Each of the first six Gurus praised Baba Budha Ji as a great Gursikh.
At very young age of Baba Budha Ji met Guru Nanak Dev ji, who happened to pass by his village.
[As a small boy, he was one day grazing cattle outside the village when, in 1524 A.D, Guru Nanak happened to pass by his village. According to Bhai Mani Singh, Sikhan di Bhagat Mala, Bura went up to him and, making obeisance with a bowl of milk as his offering, prayed to him in this manner: "O sustainer of the poor! I am fortunate to have had a sight of you today. Absolve me now from the circuit of birth and death." The Guru said, You are only a child yet. But you talk so wisely." "some soldiers set up camp by our village," replied Bura, "and they mowed down all our crops - ripe as well as unripe. Then it occurred to me that, when no one could check these indiscriminating soldiers, who would restrain Death from laying his hand upon us, young or old." At this Guru Nanak pronounced the words: "You are not a child; you possess the wisdom of an old man." From that day, Bura, came to be known as Bhai Buddha, buddha in Punjabi meaning an old man, and later, when advanced in years, as Baba Buddha.]- copy pasted because I can’t find better words to rephrase it and credit goes to sikhphilosphy
And last question but not least …relationship to Guru Granth Sahib Ji……
When the Adh Granth (Guru Granth Sahib) was prepared, Baba Budha ji was appointed as first Granthi of Darbar Sahib by Guru Arjan Dev Ji.
