Bedni kund is mythologically significant for another reason. Mahishasura, the buffalo-demon, had launched into a murderous chase of goddess Parvati. She returned to Bedni, expecting aid from the gods here and hid in the kund. This holy pond is at the centre of Bedni bugyal. It used to be a flourishing waterbody but now is a dried pit, with Shiva’s temple in it and Parvati’s shrine on the side.nnUnable to find her, Mahishasura pierced a horn into the kund, lest she hid there. Soon her sari surfaced and the goddess herself made an appearance. She tricked Mahishasura and beheaded him.

Vedani Bugyal is situated between Nanda Devi and Trishul mountain ranges. Nedni Kund is about 15 meters in diameter in this Bugyal, located 13 km from Vana village. Along with Chamoli district, this pool also holds a special place in the history of Uttarakhand. The first puja of Nanda Devi Rajajat and the worship of Nanda Lokajat ends in the Vedni Kund. After bathing in this pool, mother Nanda is said to leave Kailas.nIn Vedni Bugyal, for the night rest of the passengers, like the city of Tant gets laid. It is also the shraddh of ancestors in Vedni Kund. According to Janashruti, Shiva-Parvati marriage took place here. After the altar, the path of the Rajajat becomes harder and harder. The inaccessibility of the path before Vedni Bugyal increases so much that most people return from here, yet this time around 15-20 thousand devotees completed the journey ahead of Vedani. You cannot call this faith of a society bound in traditions a bit of excitement, somewhere there is a sense of blasphemy in their rites.
