It stands previous to the compilation of 'Karveer-Mahatmya'.
It is in the premises of 'Ghati-Darvaja' to the north of
Mahalaxrni Mandir. The 'Pinda' (round-oblong stone) is called
Kashi Vishweshwar. The 'Karveer-Mahatmya' says that it was
visited by sage Agasti, Lopamudra, King Pralhada & King
Indrasen Formerly, before the Mandir there were two holy
tanks-Kashi and Mani Kamika, of which Manikamika is completely
drained, and upon it the corporation has started a garden
(Mahalaxmi Udyana) since 1962, While the present condition of
Kashi Kund is very pitiable. The interior of the Mandir is 10'
x 10'. It is said that in the outer small Mandap there is an
ancient cave meant for meditation. In the entrance part there
are idols of Ganapati, Tulsi etc. Adjacent is a small temple
of Jotiba. This Mandir might have been built during 6-7 A. D.,
King Gandvadix extended it. Ghati Darwaja, Kartik Swami,
Shesha Varma, Navagraha Mandir belong to the same period.
