CRUCIFIXION:. Saint Isana lived at Ishbar on the banks of the Dal Lake in. Srinagar, Kashmir. He was a Saint of great repute and his preachings were heard by all and he had many devotees. One of his chief disciples, Sandiman, was ordered to be imprisoned for ten years. After some time Sandiman was put on the cross. Saint. Isana, came and saw three sentences written on the forehead of.
