Gurdwara Sulisar Sahib Patshahi Nauvin, Kot Dharmuਗੁਰਦੁਆਰਾ ਸੂਲੀਸਰ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਪਾਤਸ਼ਾਹੀ ਨੌਵੀਂ, ਕੋਟ ਧਰਮੂGurdwara Sulisar Sahib Patshahi Nauvin, Kot Dharmu

The site’s identity is stronger than the baseline classification suggested. The Sikh Encyclopedia names the historical shrine, locates Kot Dharmu relative to Mansa, describes an old Manji Sahib on the remembered platform, records regular congregations and says the gurdwara is affiliated to SGPC. SGPC’s current Mansa and Section 87 pages independently list the Kot Dharmu Ninth-Guru gurdwara. These layers are sufficient to classify HG-201 under the Guru Tegh Bahadur period while keeping the dramatic theft narrative separately graded.

According to the Malwa Sakhi Pothi tradition summarized in the standard reference, Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji halted near a pool at Kot Dharmu while returning from Talwandi Sabo. During the night, two thieves are said to have stolen the Guru’s horse. The account says they lost their sight, were apprehended the following morning, confessed, and were offered forgiveness. It then relates that one thief, overwhelmed by remorse, died after running against the dry branch of a jand tree. Devotees later established a memorial platform, and the place came to be called Sulisar, a name associated in the source with the Punjabi word for a stake or cross.

Pothi does not present the blindness episode as independently documented supernatural history. The durable historical value lies in the specific named shrine, the Guru Tegh Bahadur association preserved in Sikh reference literature, the old Manji Sahib described at the memorial platform, and the continuing SGPC institution. The standard source records monthly gatherings, an annual fair on the last day of Poh, and later expansion into a larger complex.

The historical core is a Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji halt at Kot Dharmu and the later memorialization of the site as Sulisar Sahib. The horse-theft, blindness and death sequence remains a source-graded sakhi narrative rather than a documentary event chain.

• Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji - principal Guru association.

• Kot Dharmu Sikh sangat and later devotees who preserved the memorial platform and Manji Sahib.

• Unnamed thieves in the Sakhi Pothi narrative - retained only within the source-graded narrative layer.

• Pool / water-side halt setting in the historical narrative.

• Memorial platform associated with the Sulisar name.

• Small Manji Sahib described as standing over the memorial platform.

• Later enlarged gurdwara complex; current SGPC institutional recognition.

The seventeenth-century association is the remembered halt and landscape. The Manji Sahib and the larger present complex are later memorial constructions. Pothi should preserve the old Manji Sahib as a historical feature without implying that the current building is Guru-period fabric.

• Guru Tegh Bahadur period: The Guru is remembered as stopping near a pool at Kot Dharmu during the Malwa journey. • Sakhi tradition: The horse-theft, blindness, remorse and jand-tree episode becomes associated with the Sulisar name. • Later memorial period: Devotees establish a platform and a Manji Sahib; a larger gurdwara complex develops later. • Present institutional layer: SGPC currently lists Gurdwara Patshahi Nauvin, Kot Dharmu; the distinct site remains active in the Sikh institutional network. • Batch 51: HG-201 historical period corrected and Full Entry Completed.

• Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji Malwa journey and Talwandi Sabo route.

• HG-202 Bareh is a separate next-stage Malwa shrine and must keep its own physical record.

• Miracle claims must remain source-attributed and should never be converted into empirical or medical statements.

Current SGPC listings confirm a Patshahi Nauvin gurdwara at Kot Dharmu. The standard reference describes an old Manji Sahib and a later expanded building. Pothi should verify the exact surviving old feature, present sarovar/pool relationship, entrance and visitor facilities before publishing detailed navigation.

• EXISTING PERMANENT RECORD HG-201 - retain ID and mark Full Entry Completed.

• CLASSIFICATION CORRECTION: historical period becomes Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji period; the baseline “period to verify” field is closed.

• NARRATIVE CONTROL: temporary blindness and other supernatural elements remain Sakhi Pothi tradition, not documentary fact.

• NAME NORMALIZATION: use “Gurdwara Sulisar Sahib Patshahi Nauvin, Kot Dharmu”; SGPC Punjabi spelling confirms “ਸੂਲੀਸਰ”.

• COORDINATES: Pending exact public entrance verification.
