[2] According to the legend, Lord Shiva once stayed at the site and a tributary of River Ganga, who resides in his hair, once fell in the pond.
[2] Another legendis that, Thar Desert was once a sea, where the Hindu deity Rishi Parasara chose to perform a prolonged period of worship that spanned hundreds of years, seeking eternal enlightenment.
However, Rishi Parasara lost his invocation as he committed a grave sin by engaging in sex with his daughter, which led to the sea drying up.
Despite her family's efforts to cure her illness, she remained unwell until she caught the scent of moong from Barooriya village, a place she had once gazed upon as a deer.
It was then that she revealed the only way to restore her health: to bury her skull, still stuck in the Googral tree, in the pond at the Shiva temple in Sardharo.
