Naimisharanya | പുരാണം ആദ്യമായി വിവരിച്ച സ്ഥലം | Kasi Ayodhya Gaya Pilgrimage Vlog 5

Naimisharanya Dham
This is the 5th day of Kasi Ayodhya Gaya Pilgrimage. Today we are going to Naimisharanya from Ayodhya. Naimisharanya is 200km from Ayodhya.
It is the place where Puranas had been narrated for the first time before a large gathering of sages. Naimisharanya (Neemsar) is a land steeped with Hindu mythology linking it to Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu, Goddess Sati and Lord Shiva. The place is unique owing to the belief that it is the land where the pantheon of 33 Hindu God & Goddesses reside.

Places I visited in Naimisharanya includes
1. Gomathi River
2. Vyas Gaddi
3. Chakrathirth
4. Sutha Gaddi
5. Lalitha devi Temple
6. Kali Peeth
7. Sri Balaji Temple
8. Ramanujan Temple
9. Hanuman Gaddi

Lalitha Devi Temple
Lalita Devi is the presiding deity of Naimisharanya. The temple is an ancient shrine and as per the legends or various Puraanas when Devi Sati burnt herself in the Yogi Agni after Daksha Yajna, Shiva carried her body on his shoulder and started performing Shiv Tandav. Due to which the creation of universe was affected and so Lord Vishnu divided Devi Sati’s body into 108 parts. It is believed that the heart of Devi Sati is present in Naimisharanya and is one of the Shakti Peeth’s Known as Lalita Devi. As per another folklore it is also believed that by Lord Brahma’s order Lalita Devi appeared here for the destructions of Asurs in Devasur Sangram. The temple is a beautiful cantilevered, multi-limbed divinity over entrance flanked by elephant statues.

Chakrathirth
Legend has it that the consequences of an imminent Kalyug drove many sages to Brahma to seek refuge. He rolled his Chakra (wheel) across Earth and told them to follow it till it rests; it is believed that Chakratirth is the place where Lord Brahma’s wheel cracked through the Earth developing a large source of water. However, due to high flow of water the saints then requested Lord Brahma to help them. On Lord Brahma’s request then arrived Goddess Lalita Devi who re-established the Chakra (Wheel) and controlled the flow. This formed a kund (pond) here, known as Chakra Kund. Today, this spot is surrounded by a promenade dotted with shrines honouring many Hindu deities.
