There was a king who became proud and had aegiya (permission) to build a temple for Pithdaai
As the king was collecting the bricks Maa Pithdaai told him that you will be one short of brick take one extra... the King ignored and said I know how much I need to build a temple with ego and pride.
He was building and was one short of brick just what Maa Pithad aai said he fell on Maa's feet amd cried, then he took his talwar (sword) and said I'll cut my head off and give u my bleeding head, use my ego, big head as a replacement of a brick he cuts his head off and it automatically fits through the wall. (You could see this head if u ask the pujari... its still in Pithdaai Mandir) Maa Pithdaai is so mercyfull and made the King alive again mata Pithad aai forgived him, Mata Pithad aai sits in the place now called pitharaai,
