Bhagavan Pushkareshwar-visited Kotiteerth:
'Karveer Mahatmya': Part 10. Sage Agasti told Lopamudra about
it. It is also called 'Pushkareshwar Teerth.' Ancient king
Bhanudas is mentioned to have bathed and washed away his sins
in this tank. 33 crores of Gods 5 demons had a terrible fight
in this city. The Gods were defeated and only a crore
survived. As per their appeal, Laxmi, with 9 crores female
friends, defeated the demons. The Gods bathed in the tank
which was named 'Koti-teerth' as per demons demand.
This is 3 miles far from the Mahalaxmi Mandir, to the east.
Original Mandir is very small with natural scenery around. It
is customary that a pilgrim should first bathe in the tank and
then have Darshan of the 'Pindi' which is black & fine. The
interior is 6'x 6'. Usually, worship, Aarati, prayer are done.
In these premises attendance of many devotees for diverse
reasons is seen.
