In December 1978,
astrologers opinions were sought by the Renovation Committee of the temple
before the work was commenced. During that occasion, they predicted about
the existence of significant spot near the temple, where divine “yagas” (yagnas)
were observed by ancient saints. The point where they spotted out was a
barren area, filled with hard earth. When the gravel and hard soil was
unearthed to a depth of 2 feet in the spot, situating 50 meters north of the
“Swayambhoo”, the remnants of dug in hard rock cutting stones with 20” x 20”
x 2” measurement, a divine spot with covering proof of conducting “yagas” by
saints and monks was revealed. 12 pits in 2” x 2” x1” measures dug by
cutting hard rock and water channels with equal dimensions on all the sides
were manifested in this sort. The archeological surveyors who visited this
place have ascertained that his is undoubtedly a spot where "yagas" were
conducted during ancient period. Now the spot is preserved by the temple
authorities as a invaluable monuments of "yagas". |
