History:
It is the place where Lord Ved Vyas had expounded the Vedas and had written the Puranas. This fact has been mentioned in Mahabharata, Mahapurana etc.
Maharshi Ved Vyas, a fisherman by profession, who composed the Mahabharata, is considered an avatar of Lord Vishnu. Maharishi Ved Vyas, who is credited to have compiled/edited all the four Vedas in present format and who is believed to be author of Mahabharata, Shrimad Bhagwat Gita and all the Purans has himself laid down (Mahabharata: 1-V-4): that `whenever there is conflict between what is declared in the Vedas and provisions in any of the Smritis, Puranas, etc., what is declared in the Vedas shall prevail.” Vyasa (literally “Compiler”) is a central and revered figure in most Hindu traditions. He is also sometimes called Veda Vyāsa (“the one who classified the Vedas”), or Krishna Dvaipāyana (referring to his complexion and birthplace). Maharishi Vyasa is also considered to be one of the seven Chiranjivins (long lived, or immortals), who are still in existence according to Hindu belief. According to the Vishnu Purana, “Veda Vyasa” is a title applied to the compilers of the Vedas who are avatars of Lord Vishnu.
