    Default Temples on the way to Lingaraja temple, Orissa

    Video : Miniature picture painting, temples around the Bindu sagar. The vast Bindu Sagar lake is the center around which are located the multitude of temples of Bhubaneshwar. It has a old story about this. Once lord Shiva revealed to Parvati that Bhubaneshwar - or Ekamra thirtha was a resort favoured by him over Banaras. Parvati in the guise of a cowherd woman, decided to look at the city herself. Two demons Kritti and Vasa desired to marry her. She requested them to carry her upon their shoulders, when they carry her she crushed them under her weight. Shiva, then created the Bindu Saras lake to quench her thirst, and took abode here as Krittivasas or Lingaraja.
