Kalighat Temple, the Storage of Cosmic Power


The present temple was built in 1809 on the site of an ancient temple. It is also known as the Kalighat temple. It is an important pilgrimage and Shrine of the Goddess Kali - the supreme cosmic power inherence in India at Kolkata. When the Lord Shiva frantically danced exhibiting outrageous cosmic exasperation in fury (Tandav Nritya) to destroy the Universe at the loss of his beloved wife Sati's life, the legent says that the Lord Visnu saved the Universe from being ravaged by cutting the body of Sati into pieces and spreading those throughout India. Each of those parts of the body wherever fell, that place became a pilgrimage and storage of Cosmic power. Kalighat is one such pilgrimage where the little finger of Sati exists. Hence peoples come here to get touch of that blessed part of Sati with some wishes and prayers which they get fulfilled by the Cosmic power of Her grace. May it be Birlas, Tatas, Ambanis or any business tycoon or any ordinary businessman of any strature, on the day of Ram Navami, Akshaya Tritya and Poila Baishakh (1st day of Bengali New Year) and other auspecious days especially leaving aside all important engagements and appointments every one comes to the Deity to get Her touch of blessings and Nirmalyas by offering Pujas for their all success and prospects in business and daily life.

Scientist, Dr A.Sarkar of University of Northedam,Indiana, USA sent his message which says " I never believed in myths and had never any trust on Gods or Goddess till I had my wife miraculously  got back her life after our first child birth and both survived beyond Doctor's imaginations from the claws of death. Surely, there is some power Supreme, somewhere to do and undo nything in this mortal world. we are to get touch of that power through the blessings of that Allmighty. For me, the Nirmalya from Kalighat did that marvel, a miracle above all science any human can think over".

Now you also must be wishing to offer your prayers too to Maa Kali - the supreme controller of all Cosmic power, for the solutions of your various life problems, ailments, ambitions or salvation and to fulfil your such wish and will, we are here always at your service to serve you best.
