Shri
Bimbadod Tirth
Mulnayak: Nearly 76 cms.
high, black-colored idol of Bhagawan Adishvar in the Padmansana posture.
How to Reach: It is inside the large fort in the Bimbadod village.
The nearest railway station of Ratlam is at a distance of 8 kilometers from here. Bus
service and private vehicles are available. Board and lodging provisions are there.
Historicity: There is an inscription that his idol belongs to a period
earlier than even the thirteenth century. The idol is so artistic that by merely seeing
it, one can guess its antiquity. A fair is held here from the tenth day to the fifteenth
day of the dark half of the month of Magasar. Thousands of devotees come here to worship
God with devotion. It is difficult to find elsewhere such an idol made of sand. The scene
of the pinnacles of the temple inside the fort is delightful to see. The idol is of
special artistry.
