The main statue of this temple is God Bhim. Bhimsen, Bhimeshwar, or Bhim of Dolakha is noted as one of the most popular throughout the country. He was the second prince of Panch Pandav and was notably worshipped by the traders or merchandisers as their god. In Dolakha, the roofless temple constitutes the idol of Bhimsen, which is triangular and made of rough stone. The idol in the temple is said to resemble three different gods: Bhimeshwar in the morning, <a href="/wiki/Shiva" title="Shiva">Mahadeva</a> during the day and the Narayana in the evening. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Terracotta_Art.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8e/Terracotta_Art.jpg/220px-Terracotta_Art.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8e/Terracotta_Art.jpg/330px-Terracotta_Art.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/8e/Terracotta_Art.jpg/440px-Terracotta_Art.jpg 2x" data-file-width="5184" data-file-height="3456" /></a><figcaption>Terracotta Art</figcaption></figure> <p>Local legend has it that ages ago, 12 porters coming from elsewhere stopped at this spot and made three stone stoves to cook rice. After a few minutes, it was noticed that one side of the rice grains was cooked but the other side was raw. When the Porter flipped the cooked side up, the cooked rice became raw again when it came in contact with the triangular-shaped black-stone. One of the porters became very angry and stabbed the stone with "Paneu" (laddle), which cut the stone and out of the cut flowed blood coated with milk. Later they realized that the stone was God Bhim. Worshippers started pouring in to pray to God Bhim. There are many faith-challenging incidents about the Bhimsen of Dolakha. The miraculous things of Bhimsen statue of Dolakha include sweating fluid like drops of warm water. People believe that if any bad incident is happening or going to happen soon in the country then Bhimsen himself tries to protect his people by warning them through sweating etc.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template noprint noexcerpt Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOTRS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOTRS"><span title="this is just an image!
