| Description |
English: Mahalaxmisthan Temple located in Ward No. 5 in Thasikhel, Patan, Kathmandu District. The only way to reach the temple is on the right side of the road near Patan Hospital. The same road is right in front of the army barracks. The temple can also be reached via the Ringroad, by taking the turning at Mahalakshmisthan Chowk. This pagoda and artistic style temple looks very beautiful. This temple was built in 750 AD during the reign of King Siddhinar Singh Malla. From a classical point of view, Lakshmi is considered to be a little bigger and more important. According to the Puranas, they have a thousand hands. The brat style of this Mahalakshmi is different. During the daily worship of this temple, the door is closed and Gubhaju is performed. As this goddess is also considered as a Tantric goddess, there is a tradition of worshiping her according to the Tantric method. The practice of bringing worship from Gorkha Manakamana temple once in 12 years has been going on in this temple since the time of Ramshah. Inside the temple there are idols of Mahalakshmi and idols of various other small goddesses. There are also many small temples outside the temple. Mahalakshmi is very wide and green. |
