Located about 25 kilometers from the city of Mathura, there is a small town known as Baldev which originates its name from the famous temple of Baldev or Dauji (elder brother) located in the centre of the town.
Near to the temple there is an eighty yards square tank built up of bricks known by the name of Ksheersagar or Balbhadra Kund after Lord Balram.
The Gosain Gokulnath was told by the god in his dream about the deity of lord Baldev being concealed in the Kund.
Search was made and a large beautiful deity about 7 feet high made up of black stone was found from the Kund.
This deity of Balram is believed to have been established by king Vajranabh about 5000 years ago.
