GANESHA-3

5000 years ago, two Brahmans named Bidhyadhar and Yeshodhar visited a place near Kumaripati. They had brought a lane with them which they rested against a wall before sleeping. The next morning when they woke up, they saw their lane turn into a big tree. People worship the tree as Barunbrikshya a form of lord Shiva up till this day. The two brahmans had burnt wood at night which is still burning in today’s day even after so many years. That’s why they named this place Aagnishal which means burning wood. My grandfather told me this story on the way home when he used to pick me up from school. We used to walk pass the same tree at Aagnishal. Since the tree is crooked, it blocks the road so people have to bend down to pass through. When I used to walk with my grandfather as a kid, I used to bend down watching my grandfather bend down even though I could easily walk through it up straight.
