It is said that whoever visits this temple and has darshan of Lord Shiva with a pure heart, his lifespan increases. It is said that Lord Shiva was born here in the form of Swayambhu Shivalinga. Due to this Shivalinga being amidst forests, earlier people were afraid to go here. Later people started going here because Lord Shiva blesses the devotees with long life.

Ashwatthama is worshiped here!
It is said that Ashwatthama used to come to Durgeshwarnath temple and worship Lord Shiva. Guru Dronacharya was the son of Gurumata Kripi. People believe that even today Ashwatthama comes here to worship Lord Shiva.
