Sutji narrated a tale to all the assembled sages--During ancient times, a brahmin
named Ramkrishna did an austere penance at Venketachal mountain. He remained
immobile during the entire course of his penance resulting into the development of
mole hills all over his body.Indra was scarred by Ramkrishna's penance and caused
a heavy downpour for a week. All the mole hills were washed away from
Ramkrishna's body.Lord Srinivas became pleased and appeared before him. He
blessed Ramkrishna by saying--'This holy place, where you have performed a great
penance will be named after you as Krishna teerth. Anybody who makes a
pilgrimage to this place will be liberated from all the sins.
