History Behind the Temple

According to Hindu mythology, Triyuginarayan is the very spot where Lord Vishnu solemnized the marriage of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, marking it as an eternally sacred place. The name “Triyugi” means “three yugas” (Satyuga, Treta, and Dwapara), indicating the flame has been burning for three ages. Adjacent to the temple is a kund (sacred pond) called Brahma Kund, where Lord Shiva is believed to have bathed before the ceremony, and Rudra Kund for Lord Vishnu. These kunds are still present and considered spiritually purifying.
