Miscellaneous Place in Govardhan
Submit By: Gaurav
This lovely place is symbolic of the divine love that culminated between Krishna and his childhood sweetheart Radha. It was at this place that Krishna used to spend time with her and other gopis. There is an interesting legend related to this place. It is said that after Krishna killed demon Aritsa, he was asked by Radha to purify him by taking a holy dip in all the sacred waters of earth. Agreeing to her demand, Krishna called upon the holy waters from all places at Govardhan and bathed in it. After relieving himself from the impurities, he asked gopis to clean themselves as they too were impure. To do so, Radha along with her female companions, tried to dig a fissure with the broken pieces of their bangles. The waters from Mansi Ganga were brought near the fissure and all of them bathed in this holy water.
