Gurudwara Darbar Sahib, comprises three separate memorials. The well which originally belonged to Bhai Ajitta Randhava still exists and is reverently called Sarjī Sāhib. Pilgrims take its water home in the belief that it possesses curative properties. The second memorial is the Kīrtan Asthan, a rectangular hall, which marks the site where Guru Arjan had sat rapt in kirtan when visiting Ḍera Baba Nanak for condolence on the death of Baba Dharam Das. The Guru Granth Sahib is seated in the hall. The central shrine, called Thaṛa Sahib, marks the thaṛa, or platform, on which Guru Nanak had sat when he first came to Ajitta's well and where, later, Baba Shri Chand buried his father's ashes.
