Summary
[edit]DescriptionAmbikeshwari Temple Ghorahi Dang Nepal Rajesh Dhungana (18).jpg |
English: Famous Ambikeshwari temple located in Ghorahi sub-metropolitan ward no 18. Built in Kshatriya style, the temple of this goddess is considered as a famous Shaktipith. In the middle of this north-facing brass temple, there is a deep hole in the shape of an ear-shaped symbol of Ambikeshwari at a height of about 1 meter. Devotees worship the hole as a symbol of the divine. In the context of the origin of this Shaktipithata, the story classified in the Magh Mahatmya of the Kedar section of the Skanda Purana is considered to be erroneous. Unable to hear the condemnation of her husband Shiva by the late Daksha Prajapati, Sati Devi jumped into the Yajna Kunda conducted by Daksha and died. On hearing the sad news from Narad, Shiva became distraught and went to the place carrying the dead body of Goddess Sati. After a long time, at the request of the gods, Lord Vishnu arranged for the corpse to rot. After that, various body parts started falling from Sati Devi's body in different places. At the same time, his right ear fell off when he reached a place called Paurbandha. The goddess appeared as Ambika at the same place. Looking at the archival evidence of the historical period, it can be traced back to 1863 BS. The record of one of the oldest and most fragmented clocks in the temple confirms that it was offered by King Ranbhim Shah. Ranbhim Shah was the son of King Krishna Shah of Salyani and son-in-law of King Prithvi Narayan Shah of Gorkha, the initiator of the Nepal Unification Campaign. Prithvi Narayan Shah married his daughter Vilash Kumari to the then Prince Ranbhim Shah of Salyan in 1823 BS. It is written in the clock that after King Ranbhim Shah made arrangements to consume the lands of Dang Deukhuri and Chhilli, Ranbhim Shah worshiped Ambikeshwari in 1863 and offered the bell. Similarly, Ambikeshwari is similar in the origin and history of Kshatreshwari Bhagwati in the shadow region. There were other famous centers of religious faith in the then Salyan state. The fact that there is no immediate record of this temple and the fact that it was found only in Ambikeshwari shows that this famous temple was the most famous of the time and the power of the goddess was more popular.
No such archival evidence has been found for about 40 years after the archives of this temple from 1863 BS. Yogi Narharinath has mentioned an inscription of the 48th year i.e. 1911. In which Mr. Shake is married to Mr. Maiya Saheb in 1777 Sambat 1911. Since the idol is not in the temple, it may have been lost or stolen. The Panchayana deity is worshiped in this Ambikeshwar worship system. Nitya Puja starts at 5 am and is postponed till 11 am. Evening worship is held from 6 pm to 8 pm. In this temple, special puja is performed twice a year on the great festival of Nepalis, Vijaya Dashami and Chaite Dashai. Punch sacrifices are also offered on the occasion. Devotees flock to Vijaya Dashami and Ashtami. On that day, the soldiers of the barracks are also raised here. The Ambikeshwari Temple Preservation and Promotion Committee was formed in 2041 BS for the management, regulation and development of physical infrastructure of the Ambekeshwari Temple. |
