Incident.1.
One Political Agent William with his Madam one afternoon stood at
the entrance of the Dilwara temple, just to know what a temple is.

Maharaj ShantiVijayji himself came to the door to welcome the couple.
They said they wanted to have a glance. They were offered jute cloth slippers
to wear and were asked to take out their shoes by the security staff.
The Madam changed her shoes. William did not like it and he toured
the temple premises with his shoes on.





Rumors say that William had his feet paralyzed. He could not walk.
He was advised to visit the temple again. He did not believe in such things.
He prepared himself to return to England for surgery. No medicine helped.
Wiser counsel prevails. The Madam by lot of persuasion took him in a
wheel-chair to see the temple barefoot. William walked out OK on his two feet.


Incident No.2.
At Gautameshvar Gaumukh, there was a Fountain Head of a Bull Nandi wherefrom
fresh-water poured for Visitors to wash and drink and rest there.

A marble stone was inscribed roughly meaning “Hit the Head and Take the Treasure.”
Many devotees gave their life by Hitting their Head in the Temple.
No Treasure was found.

At last, it is rumoured Vastu Pal Tej Pal brothers in 13th Century visited the spot.
They were very sorry for the plight of the dead in search of the Treasure.
Vastu Pal was so annoyed that with an iron rod, he Hit the Head of the Bull.
And? Lo! Behind the Mouth of the fountain was hidden treasure of Gold
Diamonds Pearls Ruby and what not.

They spent the proceeds of the Treasure in the development of Abu.

Mount Abu deserves a Visit at least once.
