Another Saintly personality of the same name Sant Baba Ishar Singh Ji Rarewale had also a large following during his life time. He was influenced by Baba Nand Singh Ji and later on when Babaji visited his village, he part took Amrit from him and adopted the life of a Saint. He made his meditation and teaching centre at Rara Sahib, which is situated on Chawa – Payal – Ahmedgarh Road, 22 km. of South east of Ludhiana. Sant Ishar Singh Ji and Sant Kishan Singh Ji stayed at this place and the present Gurdwara commemorates the stay of S. Ishar Singh Ji who was succeeded by Sant Kishan Singh Ji. The magnanimous building of this Gurdwara called Karamsar/Rara Sahib attracts thousands of followers. There are some other Gurdwaras also associated with Saintly figures. For example there are Gurdwaras associated with Sant Atar Singh Ji, both at his birthplace Cheema Sahib and at the place where he breathed his last, Mastuana Sahib. Further, we have Gurdwara at Patiala started by Sant Kartar Singh Kamalia Wale (Son of Sant Sangat Singh Ji). It may be mentioned here that to perpetuate the memory of Sant Kartar Singh Ji, an educational society was formed by an eminent group of educationists which presently runs Doraha Public School and three other educational institutions, Sri Guru Harkrishan Public School, Doraha, Institute of Management and Technology and Doraha College of Education. More details regarding these Saintly figures and their activities along with many others may be found in other relevant chapter.
