I had an unexpected chance to visit this serene temple. At first I was hesitant, as we had to climb a small gradient full of rocks and stones. It was 15 min walk after which we reached a set of easy steps. The climb was easy after that - hardly 5 min.
The Goddess is inside a snug cave surrounded by water that seeps through the walls of rock. Only two ppl can go in at a time along with the Pujari(one who does the prayers for you) It is sitting room only in the low ceiling cave. There is water standing outside the temple also.
We were there by 715 am. A cool breeze grazed our cheeks as we walked in the deafening silence. The Twitter of birds and rustling leaves were our companions. A few elephant droppings could be seen along the short path - evidence that elephants often visit here.
The pujari came only at 9 am. There was a phone number on the walls efficient you could call but he reached only at that time.
It didn’t bother us that we waited. Indeed we were happy to breathe in the fresh air and absorb the silence and the serenity of the place. It reminded me of long gone days of childhood when we had a lot of quaint temples around.
Reluctantly we did our prayers because that meant we had to go back. I promised myself that I would visit again if She permits.
My knee joints ached but I was so happy and at peace after going there.
Thank you Devi 🙏
