History
Shri Guru Har Gobind came to this place on 20th Phagun 1675. GURU JI had 7 cannons, 1100 horse riders & Chandu Qaidi ( the one who was involved in Guru Arjun Dev's martyrdom) , one gown with 52 flower buds with which he freed 52 prisoners from Gwalior fort. He also took rest here for a night and tied his horse to a "Ber" tree. This place is known as Damdama Sahib.
Guru Gobind Singh , while traveling disguised as the "Uchh Da Pir", came here on 11 Poh 1761 Bikrami. Along with him came Bhai Daya Singh, Bhai Dharam Singh, Bhai Maan Singh, Bhai Nabi Khan & Bhai Gani Khan. His bed was placed under the "Ber Sahib" where he rested for the night. He also distributed the "Deg" with his holy hands & named this place as "Degsar Sahib". So whoever offers Deg with a promise, his desire is fulfilled by Guru Sahib.
RIVER RELATED: In the year 1854, a survey was conducted regarding Sirhind river & it was proposed to pass a river from this place but Mr. Smith, the engineer in charge of the digging work, suddenly was blinded as he attempted to cut down the "Beri Sahib" under which Guru Sahib had slept. Blood came out wherever the ax struck the "Beri Sahib". The foreign engineer regretted & offered DEG of Rs 51 and he began to see again. Then this place was not touched at all & the river was made to bend & pass.
The river going close to GURUDWARA SAHIB is a proof to history & the "Beri Sahib" still exists. A small Gurdwara constructed by Mr. Smith is close by & can be seen standing on a hillock. He wanted to destroy this gurdwara & construct a gurdwara on it but this big gurdwara still stands firm with its glory & there is a big "Jor Mela" on every Sangraand.
