Bhim is said to have placed the huge boulder of Bhim Pul across the mighty river Saraswati to help Draupadi cross its stream. The river Saraswati just shows a glimpse of her flow above the ground before retreating into her underground abode. It is said that Ved Vyas wrote Mahabharata and other Puranas in the holy Vyas Gufa, while Lord Ganesh was seated in Ganesha Gufa transcribing the same.
