Elaborating on the Yatra, the president, said that Trinsandhayamata Nadi has the distinction of flowing thrice a day on some occasions i.e morning, noon and evening. This is rare and unique darshan to the yatris having heard no parallel anywhere existing on the earth. The Nadi flows from the top of a hill naturally and also stops naturally. There is no lake, pond or a permanent spring on the top of the hill where from the water could spill over or come out.
