DHAULA, village 11 km southwest of Barnala (30° 23`N, 75° 34`E) in Sarigrur district of the Punjab, has two historical shrines, both dedicated to Guru Tegh Bahadur. According to tradition, Guru Tegh Bahadur riding from Hadiaya to Dhaula arrived at the boundary between the two villages when his horse suddenly stopped. No amount of coaxing or spurring could make him go forward and enter the fields of Dhaula. The Guru explained to the Sikhs in his train that the Dhalivals of Dhaula were not yet ready to receive him.
