Gurdwaras of Punjab Guru Gobind Singh |
![]() |
After
agreeing to leave Chamkaur as commanded by his Sikhs, Guru Gobind Singh
escaped into the night and the jungle surrounded by the enemy troops.
In the dark the Guru was separated from his three Sikh and left alone
in the dense jungle. Guru Gobind Singh trudged through the jungle day
and night, his clothes tattered and his feet blistered. Eventually the
Guru reached the outskirts of Machiwara town and lay down to sleep in
a garden in some bushes on the ground with a stone as his pillow. Here
he was found by the three remaining Sikhs Dharam Singh, Daya Singh and
Man Singh. This gurdwara marks that spot where Guru Gobind Singh was found
sleeping. Guru Gobind Singh drank water from the well that appears in
the foreground. |
