Note 16 — Chapter VII · TREE AND SERPENT WORSHIP.

There is a temple of Bhimnāth Mahādev near Baravāla in the shade of an ancient Jāl tree. The worshipper at the temple, a wealthy man, once thought of erecting a grand temple over the image, but he was prevented from doing so by the god appearing in his dream and telling him that he preferred to live under the tree.16
