In the vicinity of Trilochan is one big Shiv Ling is known as Balmikeshwar. Devotees who worship Balmikeshwar will be free from all worries and despair.
One point needs to be mentioned here. There is another Balmikeshwar Ling in the premises of Heramb Vinayak which is also worshipped with fervour but the location given in Kashi Khand points out to Trilochan.
Taking bath in Padodak Koop on Akshay Tritheeya day and performing pooja of Trilochan and other Lings is very auspicious and there is heavy rush on the above day even now. Jal Shringar is done on Akshay Tritheeya Day which is very well worshipped by devotees.
