It
is indeed magnificent to look at Him though His form that was roudra
in its intensity and strength in totality. It has many other plus
points that have been luring Saivates in particular and theists in
general since that act of killing Tripura for universal peace. It is
here the sweat drops of the Lord were converted into a steam which
is flowing since then perennially under the name of Bhimarati; it is
at this temple Mother Gowri is worshipped as Kamalaja indicating
thereby that she was worshipped with lotuses by Brahma; it is here
lies the Mokshakund that liberates seven generations of the
forefathers of the person bathed; it ,is here lie several other
sacred thirthas created by Dattatreya and Bhashitadevi; it is here
lived the famous rishi Jabali; it is here located shrines for Sakini
and Dakini, who helped Lord Bhimasankar in his war against Tripura;
it is this temple built by two bankers unlike by kings and it is
here the Lokabhayankar Tripurasura met his death at the hands of
Lord Sankar. Let us have a look at its antiquity.
