    From the book “Sri Vraja-maṇḍala-parikramā”:

    This pond is situated near Vṛṣabhānu-kuṇḍa, in the north-east. Śrī Rādhikā’s mother, Śrī Kīrtidā, used to bathe here daily. This pond is also famous by the name Kīrti-sarovara.

    namaḥ kīrtir mahābhāge!
    sarveṣāṁ govrajaukasām
    sarva-saubhāgyade tīrthe
    sukīrtisarase namaḥ
    ​​​​​​​Bṛhat Pārāśara; quoted in Vraja-bhakti-vilāsa

    From the book “Chaurasi-kosa Vraja Mandala Parikrama”:

    This kunda is situated very close to Bhanukora and is the place where Radha’s dear mother Kirtida used to bathe. It is said that whoever takes a bath in this kunda will be freed from all sins and at death go directly to Goloka.
