KISHANA
Bhai Kishana, son of Bhai Rama, a resident of village Chahal (district Lahore, Pakistan), was a dedicated Sikh of the time of Guru Nanak Sahib. Guru Nanak Sahib’s father-in-law, Baba Rama too belonged to this village. It seems that Bhai Kishana was not the brother-in-law of Guru Nanak Sahib as there is no reference in any source that Guru Sahib had any brother-in-law.
KISHANA CHAUHAN
Bhai Kishana, son of Bhai Kaulji Das and grandson of Bhai Ambia Hajawat (a Chauhan Rajput) was a dedicated Sikh of the time of Guru Hargobind Sahib. He embraced martyrdom in the battle of Kartarpur, on April 28, 1635. Also see: Kaul Das and Padma.
KISHANA JHINGARAN
Bhai Kishana Jhingaran, a Brahmin, was a devout Sikh of the time of Guru Arjan Sahib. Bhai Kishana Jhingaran and his companion Bhai Bala Jhingaran, both, were scholarly persons and were famous for their debating skill. They approached Guru Sahib and confessed that despite of their knowledge and skill they had obtained no spiritual heights. Guru Sahib told them that instead of being didactic they should address to themselves and moreover they themselves should try to live their lives according to the ideology. Both promised to act upon Guru Sahib’s advice. Later, both of them became missionaries of the Sikh religion.
KISHANA (MUJANG)
Bhai Kishana, a resident of Mujang (near Lahore, Pakistan), was a dedicated Sikh of the time of Guru Arjan Sahib. In that area, Bhai Kishana and Bhai Seth Manghiana and their families were the first to join the Sikh faith at that time. At Mujang, Bhai Bhanu used to hold a congregation every morning. These two families used to perform Keertan. Later, many others joined them and it became a big Sangat. Bhai Kishana also made active participation during the establishment of the city of Amritsar.
