History of the temple
Regarding the greatness of the temple, it is said that while felling the forest in 1800, Shyamnath Goswami had found a big stone under a tree. They tried to break it considering it to be an ordinary stone but as soon as it was attacked, blood started flowing. Shyamnath thought this is not an ordinary stone.He made a small platform and installed it there and started offering prayers daily. Gradually its discussion spread everywhere and became the center of people’s faith. In 1870, Parameshwara Goswami gave it the shape of a small monastery.
