TADa rAjasthAna kA mataBefore creation began, Brahma assembled all the celestials on this very spot, and performed the Yuga; aroundt he hallowed spot, walls were raiesd, and sentinels placed to guard it from the instrusion of the evil spirits. In testimony of the fact, the natives point out the four isolated mountains, placed towards the the cardinal points, beyond the lake, on which, they assert, rested the Kanats, or cloth-walls of inclosure. That to the south is called Rutnagir, or the hills of gems,' on the summit of which is the shrine of Savittri. That to the north is Nilagir, or the blue mountain! East, and guarding the valley, is the Kutchacter Gir; and to the West Sonachooru, or 'the golden'. Nanda, the bullsteed of Mahadeva, was placed at the mouth of the valley, to keep away the spirits of the desert ; while Kaniya himself performed this office to the north. The sacred fire was kindled: but Savittri, the wife of Brahma, was nowhere to be found, and as without a female the rites could, not proceed, a young Goojari took the place of Savittri; who, on her return, was so enraged at the indignity, that she retired to the mountain of gems, where she disappeared. On this spot a fountain gushed up, still called by her name; close to which is her shrine, not the least attractive in the precincts of Poshkur. During these rites, Mala deva, or, as he is called, Bhola Nath, represented always in a state of stupefaction from the use of intoxicating herbs, omitted to put out the sacred fire, which spread, and was For Private And Personal Use Only

likely to involve the world in combustion ; when Brabma extinguished it with the sand, and hence the teebas of the Valley. Such is the origin of the sanctity of Poshkur. In after ages, one of the sovereigns of Mundore, in the eagerness of the chase, was led to the spot, and washing his hands in the fountain, was cured of some disorder. That he might know the place again, he tore his turban into shreds, and suspended the fragments to the trees, to serve him as guides to the spot?-there he made the excava. . tion.

46 32 Beeji Rae succeeded in S. 870 (A. D. 814). He commenced his reign with the teeka-dour against his old enemies, the Barahas, whom he defeated and plundered. In S. 892, he had a son by the Bhoota queen, who was called Deoraj. The Barahas and Langahas once more united to attack the Bhatti prince; but they were defeated and put to flight. Finding that they could not succeed by open warfare, they had recourse to treachery. Having, under pretence of terminating this long feud, invited young Deoraj to marry the daughter of the Baraha chief, the Bhattis attended, when Beeji Rae and eight hundred of his kin and clan were massacred. Deoraj escaped to the house of the Purohit (of the Barahas, it is presumed ), whither he was pursued. There being no hope of escape, the Brahmin threw the Brahminical thread round the neck of the young prince, and in order to convince his pursuers that they were deceived as to the object of their search, he sat down to eat with him from the same dish."
