			== Early life ==
			Nand Singh was born on 8 November 1870 at [[Sherpur, Punjab\|Sherpur]] village in [[Jagraon]], [[Ludhiana district]] of [[Punjab, India\|Punjab]] to Sardar Jai Singh and Mata Sada Kaur. It is reported that he displayed a proclivity for meditation from a young age, once being found doing so while sitting at the edge of a well in the middle of the night.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web \|title=Nanaksar Thath Isher Darbar \|url=http://www.nanaksarthath.co.uk/babanandsingh.asp \|access-date=2022-03-14 \|website=www.nanaksarthath.co.uk}}</ref>

			== Life work ==
			Nand Singh left his house to do [[Seva (Indian religions)\|sewa]] at Gurdwara Sahib in [[Firozpur]]. He acquired a distinct group of followers during his lifetime. At a very young age, he left his family to seek enlightenment and became a disciple of Maha Harnam Singh,<ref>{{Cite web \|title=Repository of Infinite Divine Powers \|url=https://www.babanandsinghji.org/lord-of-life-and-death/ \|access-date=2022-03-14 \|website=www.babanandsinghji.org}}</ref> another great Saint of great spirit. There he met [[Harnam Singh (saint)\|Harnam Singh]], who was impressed by his spirituality. He mentored him in the ways of devotion and the spirit of sacrifice.<ref name=":1" />

			It is said Singh went to a forest for further meditation. After some time, he returned from the forest and stayed outside nearby village. The villagers constructed a temporary shelter for him. After some time, dwellers of the Kalera village approached him with an invitation to their village, which he accepted. En route, he stopped at a well located between Kalera and Kaunke. He made his camp there, and a small hut was made for him by the villagers. Singh started his meditation there.<ref name=":1" />

			Nand Singh established his [[dera]], now known as [[Nanaksar]], near Kalera. The food ([[Langar (Sikhism)\|langar]]) was provided by nearby villagers, a practice which is in place to this day. Unlike other [[Gurdwara\|gurdwaras]], no financial offerings are made by the devotees in front of the [[Guru Granth Sahib]] at this Sri Nanaksar Gurdwara.<ref name=":1" /><ref>{{Cite web \|title=Sub Division, Jagraon, Punjab \|url=http://www.jagraonadministration.in/nanaksar.php \|access-date=2022-03-14 \|website=www.jagraonadministration.in}}</ref>

	Baba Nand Singh Ji left his bodily form at Nanaksar in Punjab which is now recognized as the central dera although his devotees have established Gurudwaras under the name of Nanaksar around the world. {{cn\|date=~~December 2019}}~~		==controversy==

	~~==Enlightenment==~~		The practices of word repetition, paath accounting etc are said to be anti Sikh in some circles. Nansksar has therefore come to be associated with Sikhiism as a cult and not as a sikh institution. Gurubani in the SGGS describes the japp and tapp practices of Nand Singh as brahmanical empty rituals.
