According to Bharatiya Scriptures

It is said that Savitri and Satyavan lived here, and the famous incident of Savitri taking back her beloved husband's life from Yamraj took place here, around the Narayan Mountain. By this claim it can be inferred that Parali was once part of the Madra Kingdom, whose king was Ashvapati, the father of Savitri.

The young Sage Markandeya is also believed to have got the boon to live here in Parli Vaijnath [5] By this claim, since Markandeya had lived contemporarily to Mahabharata events, even have interacted with King Yudhishtira, [6] it can be understood that the Shivlinga of Vaijnath is at least of that time period and much possibly even before.
