The History of Shambhu Nath, Nahri Sonepat
Sonepat is a historical and an ancient city. Thousands of years ago, Baba Puranmal so of king Salewan, who ruled Shalkot, came
to village Nahri in District Sonepat for meditation and to attain spiritual bliss. During that period, the area around village
Nahri was a heavy forest, still very old trees of Gular, Peepal, Bargad, Janti, etc. can be seen here. Keeping in mind this ancient
view, diety Shiv Dada Shambhu's temple had been established here. In place of earlier small temple, now a magnificient temple has been
constructed by the devotees. Later Baba Kude Nath, Baba Mast Nath, Ranpat Nath, Maan Data Nath came here for 'Tapasya' to attain
the spiritual bliss. As such, this Tapasya Sthal and temple have become a centre for spiritual salvation for people. Here, a grand
fair is held biannually i.e. on every Phagun Navami (March) month and Asadh Saptami (July). Many saints and sages still visit here
for having worship and salvation. At present, Baba Karambeer Nath is looking after this place as the priest.
