Hoary scriptures, particularly works dealing with Saivism embody a great corpus of literature shedding much light on the divinity of this thirtlia kshetra. Chronicles like Kalhana's Raja-Tarangani and Abdul Faz's Aini-i-Akbari, philosophical works like Iltpala's Isvara Prathyabhijna, Sivasutras, Paratrinshika, Tantrasara, Tantraloka, Madhava's Sarvadarsana Sangraha, Bhatta's Kusumanjali and Nilantata-Purana and Harvijaya bear ample testimony to the sacredness of this holy shrine and illustrate the lives of those who were blessed by Maheswar.
