It has been said about the Naimisharanya pilgrimage site that Maharishi Shaunak had a desire to do long-term Jnanasatra in his mind. Lord Vishnu was pleased with his worship and gave him a cycle and also asked him to go on walking this cycle and the place where the name (circumference) of this cycle falls down, then understand that the place has become sacred. When Maharishi Shaunak started driving the cycle from there, 88000 Sahasra Rishi also accompanied him. When they all started following that cycle. While walking, suddenly the name of the chakra fell in a forest on the banks of the Gomti river and it entered the chakra land there. Due to the falling of the cycle, the area came to be called Naimish. For this reason, this place is also called Naimisharanya.
