According to local belief, Nath Baba had two consorts. His primary consort, Goddess Jogeshwari, resides with him at Kharsundi, while his second consort, Goddess Zakabai, is believed to reside a few kilometers away near Nellikarjini. As per legend, Goddess Jogeshwari placed a divine condition that Nath Baba could meet Goddess Zakabai only once every three years. Honoring this tradition, a grand Palkhi procession is organized by the villagers, usually in December or January, during which the deity symbolically travels to meet Goddess Zakabai. This event is marked by deep devotion and participation from surrounding villages and is one of the most important religious traditions of the area.
Near Kharsundi lies a place called Ghodapur, famous for a natural perennial spring that has flowed uninterrupted for generations. Local folklore attributes the origin of this spring to a divine event: it is believed that Nath Baba’s horse once encountered a serpent that was attempting to prevent the deity from visiting his second consort. In response, the horse leapt and struck the ground with its hoof, causing water to miraculously gush forth. This sacred spring has never dried up and is regarded as a symbol of divine power and protection.
Together, the temple, the triennial pilgrimage, and the sacred spring form an integral part of Kharsundi’s spiritual heritage, reflecting a rich blend of devotion, mythology, and living tradition.
