After proceeding on the parikrama path from Airavata Kunda, for about ten minutes, you come to this kunda. Lord Siva meditated on Krishna here. It is said that Lord Siva shed tears (rudan) of love for Radha and Krishna here. Rudra is another name for Siva. There is a Siva temple close to this kunda. It is said that Radha and Krishna would come and bath in this kunda. This kunda is on the left side of the paved parikrama path in Jati Pura.

Jati Pura is named after Madhavendra Puri, who was a sannyasi (in the renounced order), or yati. Yati means "sannyasa." Jati is the modern corruption. Pura means "town." This town is called Jati Pura because Madhavendra Puri used to live here. He worshiped the Deity of Gopala (Sri Nathaji) here. This town is also known as Gopala Pura.

Sringa Sthali
At Sringa Sthali devotees pour milk over a large Govardhana shila. Hundreds of litres of milk are poured on Govardhana daily at this place. This is on the western side of Govardhana Hill. Sri Gopala revealed himself to Madhavendra Puri on the eastern side of the hill. Sri Gopala was worshiped in a temple on top of the hill. You can see the temple on top of the hill at this place.

The samadhis of Vallabhacarya and his son Vithala are located directly in front of Sringa Sthali. The worship of Gopala was entrusted to Vithala.

Getting there
This place is in the town of Jati Pura, right next to Govardhana Hill.

From Jati Pura
From Sringa Stali you then walk along the side of Govardhana Hill for about two minutes and you come to a small temple that contains the well-dressed Dandavati-shila. From here you make a left and return to the parikrama path. As you leave Jati Pura you come to Surya Kunda. This kunda is on the left hand side, a short distance into the fields. This kunda is always dry and is called Sukda Kunda by the locals.

About halfway between Jati Pura and the town of Govardhana is the Satya Narayana temple. This temple is a small road-side temple about a km from Jati Pura. You can see the Deity of Satya Narayana from the road. In you proceed into the fields, which are directly behind the temple, for a km you come to Vilasa Vana and Vilachu Kunda. On the southern bank of Vilachu Kunda is a broken stone seat. It is said that Radharani and Krishna would sit there and talk together. The Deity of Harideva was hidden here during the Moghul rule, when the Muslim would destroy temples and Deities.

Govardhana Town
The path gets a little tricky when you enter the town of Govardhana. You go on the main road, then you make a right and a left and go through the main bazaar. There may be a detour before this point that goes to the left. After walking through the main bazaar for ten minutes the road bends to the right and after passing the town hall you make a left turn. This road then goes straight going pass Uddhava Kunda, until you reach the town surrounding Radha Kunda.

On the way through the town of Govardhana you can stop at Chakra Tirtha, which is on the bank of Manasi Ganga. Just before you leave the town of Govardhana, you can see Manasi Ganga on the right side of the road. Manasi Ganga is only about 20m (60 ft) wide at this place. You turn right at this place to get to Chakra Tirtha. On the road going from the parikrama path to Chakra Tirtha, there is a temple (house) that is said to mark the place where Saubari Rishi resided after he got married.
