Situated at
the confluence of rivers Saryu, Gomti and latent Bhagirathi, lies the holy township
of Bageshwar; also revered as the pious land associated with Lord Sadashiva, the redeemer
of all sins. As the puranas state, this undoubtedly is a place capable of liberating one
from the eternal bondage of births & deaths. With the east and west
flanked by the Bhileswar and Nileshwar mountains and surrounded by
Suraj Kund in the north and Agni Kund in the south, this land of Lord Shankar
is of great religious, historic and political significance. Since time
immemorial, this place has been the symbol of faith for the entire
Uttranchal region. Because of its spiritual magnetism, it has attracted many
saintly men and numerous patriots who have always been ready to lay down
everything for the sake of their revered motherland.
