Editing Nainital (section)

==Etymology and mythology==
It is believed that the Naini Lake is one of the 51 ''[[Shakti]] Peeths'', based on the story of the death of the [[Sati (Hindu goddess)|goddess Sati]]. Out of grief and sorrow, [[Shiva]] carried Sati's body, reminiscing about their moments as a couple, and roamed around the universe with it. [[Vishnu]] had cut her body into 52 body parts, using his [[Sudarshana Chakra]], which fell on Earth to become sacred sites where all the people can pay homage to the Goddess. The spot where Sati's right eye (or ''Nain'') fell, came to be called Nain-tal or lake of the eye. The goddess Shakti is worshiped at the Naina Devi Temple, known by locals as Naini Mata Temple on the north shore of the present day lake.<ref>[[:File:View of Mallital, without the present Naina Devi Temple, Nainital, 1865.jpg|View of Mallital, without the present Naina Devi Temple (1865)]] [[British Library]].</ref><!-- <ref>[[:File:View of Nainital, from the southeast (Tallital side), 1865.jpg]] [[British Library]].</ref>-->
