Bilvavana
The son of Padmavati, Śrī Nityananda Prabhu, after crossing the Ganges and going some distance, said to the devotees, “See this attractive place named Bilvapakṣa. Generally people call it Bela Pukhariya (or Belpukura).
The place known in the scriptures as Bilvavana in Vraja is situated here in Navadvipa.
“One time some brahmana devotees of Siva worshiped him by offering the leaves of his favorite tree, the bilva, or bael, tree for a fortnight’s duration. Śiva was pleased with the brahmanas and gave them kṛṣṇa-bhakti. Amongst those worshipers was Nimbaditya, who had been very attentive in the worship. Śiva spoke to him, ‘At the edge of this village is a sacred bilva forest. Within that forest, the four Kumāras are sitting in meditation. By their mercy, you will receive transcendental knowledge. They are your gurus. By serving them, you will receive all that is of value.’ Saying this, Lord Siva disappeared.
