This temple has a holy tank named Sannihit Sarovar. This tank measures 1500 ft. in length and 450 ft. in breadth. The Sarovar is encircled with small shrines of Dhruv Narayan, Hanuman, Lord Vishnu, Laxmi Nayaran and Goddess Durga.
Religious Significance
Hundreds of years ago, the holy waters of all the land felt burdened by washed off sins of man. They sought help from the court of the Lord. They thus spoke, Man, absolves himself of all sins by taking a dip in our waters. It is we who have to bear the burden of their sins. O Lord, master of all, show us a way to get rid of these sins. At this the Lord said, “On the days of new moon, ‘Amavasya’ (night of complete darkness) or on the days of the eclipse if you all collect in the waters of Sannihit tank, your sins will be absolved”. Ever since it is believed that bathing in the waters of this holy tank on these days brings one the advantage of performing ‘Ashvamed Yajna’. The Kumbh Mela is a major event that is related to the legend.
As per another legend, if a man performs Shradhs at the time of solar eclipse and takes a bath in this tank, he acquires the fruit of 1000 Ashwamedh sacrifices.
According to local legends, Lord Krishna haloed status of the tank is also linked to the fact that he had taken a dip in these waters after the battle of Mahabharata. That he met Radha here again, is another legend.
