If you clap in front of Dalahi Kund, you will witness the water in the pond elevate mysteriously. This rising of the water here can be compared to water boiling. It is not just a tiny moment with small ripples but a significant one with full-on boiling water splashes. That indeed is peculiar for a water body to do so!
What’s more? Another cool property of the kund is that the water can adapt to the seasons. Dalahi Kund alters itself with the rotation of the earth around the sun to operate as a natural geyser of sorts. During summers, the water reaches a rather cooler temperature and is comfortably warm during the winters.
It Is A Worship Site As Well
This kund is also a site for the deity Dalahi Gosai. Every Sunday, devotees come here for religious purposes. They have immense faith in its waters and believe that a cleansing dip in it can fulfil every wish. Apparently, it is believed to have medicinal healing properties as well. Do you have a wish that you want to achieve as soon as possible? Head over to Dalahi Kund and get your wishes fulfilled by this magical genie of a water body.
