of one lotus flower. Selflessly Lord Brahma offered
his 'Netra Kamal' at Lord Shiva's feet. Overwhelmed
by the sacrificial deed Lord Shiva accepted the offering
while returning his eyesight. Lord Shiva was from
then onwards called the 'Trinetreshwar'.
The
Kund adjacent to the temple also has a myth related.
Bathing in this kund is considered to be as holy as
taking a dip in the holy waters of the Ganges by the
people of Gujarat. The
kund is also popularly known as the 'Papnashu' (destroyer
of sins).
