मानुषतीर्थ (mAnuSatIrtha)

 
पुराणम्
English
मानुषतीर्थ / MĀNUṢATĪRTHA. A sacred pond lying on the outskirts of kurukṣetra. There is a legend showing the origin of this pond. Once a hunter wounded a deer with his arrow and the deer ran and dropped itself into the pond. When it rose up from the water it became a man. From that day onwards the pond became holy and got the name mānuṣatīrtha. (Śloka 65, Chapter 86, Vana Parva).
