This is an historic holy place. It is said that Lord Shri Ram with his bow and arrow created a water source when Jatayu was injured in a fight with Ravan. And that water source is now a big pond of holy water which is used for shahi snan during Kumbh Mela.
Temple of Jatayu is situated exactly perpendicular to the water source along with Lord Shankar's Pind temple and also of Lord Shri Ram.
There is also a round stone placed in a deep hole shaped like the Shankar Pind in the ground, which you have to remove with one hand and then wash it with the holy water and place it again in the hole.
"It is said that those whose wish is going to come true he/she only can remove that stone out of the hole. Others cannot remove it even after various tries."
