Mythology

The place is not  artificial creation  its a gift of  nature. There are  mysterious caves, which are believed to be the three eyes of lord Shiva, as we see in the first cave we see an image of lord Shiva which is called as Haleshwar Mahadev. In the second cave there is an image of Nandi. the cave knows Basaha Gupha. And there is an image of Bhairav an in the third cave. Among these three mysterious caves the first one with the image of Lord Shiva is the main part of the temple. There is a big red murti [ stone ] which is worshiped as Gaura Parbata. It is believed to be a joint image of Gauri and Parbati. This cave is in the depth At the bottom of the cave there is the image of Mahadev made of stone. It is about two and half feet long .  there is also statue 'Linga' of Mahadev which is nearly two and half feet high up from the ground but the base of the statue leads to the next cave through a small hole. It is called Basaha Gupha. The base of the statue is full of water,   Above the statue in the cliff there is an image of cows' udder from which white drops fall on to the statue. It is believed that Kamadhenu (Cow in the heaven who can fulfill the desires wishes if asked) is worshipping the god by offering her milk.

Ghoptay Dwar:  Ghoptay Dwar is a Nepali word which means downward facing door. It is located to the Northwest of the image of the god. People enter here from the South and come out of the North. It is about 9 feet long.

Janma Dwar: it’s a east of intrance  It is Janma Dwar which means the birth door.

Pap Dwar: To the East- South of the image of the God,  it is called Pap Dwar. In this door people enter from the east and come out hardly from the West. People call who are the criminal people canpt pass from there they will auto luck there by the naturally

Dharma Dwar: there is the  Haleshwar Mahadev  , There is a tradition of going in and coming out from that gap. This gap is called Dharma Dwar.

Swarga Dwar:  Swarga Dwar It looks really amazing if it is viewed from Yogya Shala, it is close to pap Dwar. Most People can't reach there,  that is cals point  who people can  reach swarga after death they can only cross that point , It may have been named Swarga Dwar as Swarga in Nepali Means heaven where no people can reach and live in.

There is a legend that people who are really religious can easily enter the four Dwars. But those who are not cannot enter any of these Dwars.
