Sri Tuljabhavani Temple

In Sri Sakanda Purana, the avatar story of this goddess is given as follows. After the death of Sage Kardam in Krita Yuga, his wife Anubhuti decided to cohabit with her husband. But as she had a minor son, other sages persuaded her, so she gave up the plan for the sake of the minor son and started doing penance on the banks of Mandakini river. At that time, a demon named Kukar tried to break her fever and celibacy. Anubhuti cried out to Shri Bhagwati in the time of distress and Shri Bhagwati incarnated and killed the evil demon and at the request of Anubhuti he lived forever on the mountain Yamunachal (Bala Ghat).
