Source: WorldCat: Śrī vraja-maṇḍala parikramāGahvarakuṇḍa (गह्वरकुण्ड) is the name of a pond also called Kṛṣṇa-kuṇḍa.—Canopied by creepers on all sides and covered by thick trees, this pond is the very beauty of Gahvaravana. Nearby are beautiful groves. Vaiṣṇavas perform parikramā of these groves with deep faith and roll in the dust here. This pond holds many memories of Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa’s various amorous exchanges.
Vaishnava (वैष्णव, vaiṣṇava) or vaishnavism (vaiṣṇavism) represents a tradition of Hinduism worshipping Vishnu as the supreme Lord. Similar to the Shaktism and Shaivism traditions, Vaishnavism also developed as an individual movement, famous for its exposition of the dashavatara (‘ten avatars of Vishnu’).
