Connected with the temple are about twenty minor shrines, some of them with curious carving. In the middle of the town, in an earthen cave, is an image of the god, Trivikram, in whose honour a yearly fair is held. The story goes that the god Trivikram, appearing to him in his sleep, implored Kadoba Buva Maharaj Teli, a famous local saint, to release him from his earthen prison. Kadoba Buva Maharaj began to dig in the market-place, found the image, and set it in the place where the temple now stands...
