Sri Veda Vyasa Temple- Kalpi

Sri Veda Vyasa Temple at Kalpi is a historical city in Jalaun district in Uttar Pradesh which is on the right bank of the Yamuna river.
The Gaud Saraswath Brahmin (GSB) community who are followers of Kashi Math Samsathan Varanasi has set up a temple of Shri Bala Veda Vyasa in memory of the great sage Veda Vyasa.The spiritual guru of Kashi Math Samsthan Shri Sudhindra Thirtha swami had his vision to set this temple right at the birthplace of Veda Vyasa in 1998.

Vyasadeva is the literary incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He is the son of Sage Parashara and Satyavati Devi. He was named Krishna Dwaipayana Vyasa because he was born on an island in Kalpi Village. Later he was addressed as Vedavyasa after he divided the Vedas into four parts. He is the 28th Vyasa of this Kalpa.

History of Veda Vyasa Birth

Sage Parashara wanted to cross Yamuna river and he took the help of a young beautiful woman named Kali, who was the daughter of a fisherman.
The beautiful Kali aroused passion in Sage Parashara who created a thick fog around the boat and created an artificial island. The couple had sexual union on the island.Sage Parashara then told Kali that as soon as he leaves, a son will be born to her. He predicted that his son would become the teacher of the world and divide the Vedas. He also blessed Kali, saying that after the birth of a son, she will remain a virgin.
Soon Kali gave birth to a male child. As soon as the child was born, he grew up and told Kali that she had played her part in the divine mission by giving birth to him and that she need not worry about him. He also said that he will come to her aid whenever she so desires.
As a child, Vyasa was referred as Krishna and as he was born on an island he was also known as Krishnadwaipayana. When he divided the versa into Rig, Yajur, Sama and Atharvana, he came to be known as Veda Vyasa.

Besides 18 Puranas and Brahmasutras, Shri Vyas Dev composed Mahabharat, the longest epic the mankind has ever seen. This is a vast treasure house of knowledge known as the 5th Veda.
