Religious Importance
The origin of Gosaikunda is directly related to the epics of Hindu Mythology and ‘Samundra Manthan’(literal translation means ‘churning out the ocean‘). It is believed that the Lake was formed after Lord Shiva thrust his Trishul (Trident of Shiva) into the mountain to extract the water to cool down his stinging throat after he had swallowed the ‘Kalkut Vish‘ poison. Pilgrims hence believe that drinking water from Gosainkunda Lake has bodily benefits.
