Lord Shiva here is called by the name "Chintaharana Mahadev". He is Svayambhu Shivlinga (not man-made but appeared by itself) with another 1000 small Shivlinga. He came here from Mount Kailash for the darshan of Baby Krishna. But Mother Yashoda refused to show his dear son to him. She told him "My little Krishna will be scared of you, please look at your frightful form". So Lord Shiva came and sat here with a fixed determination that I will not return to Mount Kailash without the darshan of Lord Krishna. Mother Yashoda took his dear son and went to Brahmand Ghat of Yamuna Ji to bathe Krishna. There Lord Krishna had eaten the soil. Mother Yashoda got worried that what has happened to my son that he is eating mud leaving milk, curd, and butter. When Mother Yashoda opened Krishna's mouth, the whole universe started to appear there and she saw herself in it as well. Mother Yashoda got worried about her son, that something has happened to him. Some cowherds came and told Mother Yashoda that a saint is sitting here, take your son to him and show him, he will definitely cure your son. Mother Yashoda came to Lord Shiva with Krishna. Lord Shiva removed the worry of Mother Yashoda and Lord Shiva also got darshan of Shri Krishna. One Shivlinga has 1108 Shivlinga's in it. This Shivlinga is called Chintaharan Mahadev, who has 1108 Shivlinga's in it.
Another Pastime of this place is when Lord Shiva blessed Yashoda and Nand here with a son.
Mother Yashoda had grown old, but she did not have any children and she remained in this worry. One day Mother Yashoda and Maharaj Nand came here and prayed to Mahadev Ji to get a son. Mahadev Ji was pleased and Mother Yashoda and Maharaj Nanda received Shri Krishn in the form of a son.
Lord Mahadev took away all the worries of Mother Yashoda and Maharaj Nand, so He was named Chintaharan Mahadev (Who removes all worries). Nearby Shri Yamuna Ji is flowing and Chintaharan Ghat is situated.
