At the end, Trilochanjireplied, "Mata, if you want to give me a Varadaan, then give me this Varadaanthat the one who succeeds (heirs) me should keep worshipping you and should accept whatever you offer."

At the end, Trilochanjireplied, "Mata, if you want to give me a Varadaan, then give me this Varadaanthat the one who succeeds (heirs) me should keep worshipping you and should accept whatever you offer."

The devotee prayed that he wants that Mata should make abode at his native place so that locals can be relieved of the pains and agony and are blessed by her Shakti. Mataji granted him the boon that she will appear at the time of his grandson and so the devotee disclosed the same to the locals.

The devoted Brahmin had number of sons amongst whom two most pious and learned were Amolak Ram and Mahadev Shiv Nandan. They preferred and adopted Billawar and Basohli as their residences.

Exactly in the time of Mahadev (Shiv Nandan), a shila (stone slab) miraculously started emerging out from a spring at Sukrala. The people of the area soon started realizing the prophecy of the grandfather as had earlier been disclosed. They (the inhabitants) accepted it as an emblem of the goddess and as such started worshipping it regularly.

Like his father, Mahadev Shiv nandanji also used to be absorbed in devotion. When Shivnandanji was six years old, his father sent him to study in the school and himself used to engage in the worship of SukralaMata Ji. He did not get enough time to listen to lessons from Shivanandan. It has been a long time since Shivnandanji went to school. One day when his father was meditating, he started thinking that it has been a long time since he heard from his son. He called Shiv nandanji and said, "Give me your book and recite the whole lesson." While reciting the text, Shivnandanji forgot a couple of words. His father was very strict, so he hit Shivnandan and chided him how did heforget the lesson. On this, Shiv nandanji left the home and did not return overnight. So, his family members thought that he would be at someone's house.

It is said that there was a group of Sadhus in Basohli which was going for Kashi Yatra. Shiv nandan stayed in the group of Sadhus for the whole night and as soon as morning went to Kashi
