With his own power, he brought large parts of Inda under his sway. This king was a pious follower of the dharma. He had many temples, reservoirs, wells and tanks build. Between Bheṛāghāṭ and Dhūāṃdhār, his queen Adahanā Devī, had the Gaurīśaṅkara temple constructed in which she had the 64 yoginīs installed, which were later on destroyed by oppressive, criminal Muslims.
The Purana (पुराण, purāṇas) refers to Sanskrit literature preserving ancient India’s vast cultural history, including historical legends, religious ceremonies, various arts and sciences. The eighteen mahapuranas total over 400,000 shlokas (metrical couplets) and date to at least several centuries BCE.
