My Yatra to 2 sakthi peethams in North East

[Guest guest]

We first went to Gauwhathi. Before going to Kamakya temple we were

taken to Bashist Ashram (Vasishtar).The linga to which he did pojja and

the Ambal are there.The are in the album.Next we went to

Kamkya.Tradition has it that Sati Devi's yoni fell here. There is no

idol of Ambal there.But theree is a piece of rock with water flowing,

which represents Ambaal.You can feel the sanithiam as soon as you enter

the temple.Animal sacrifices take place.A priest was good enough to

take uo and do pooja.I paid him only the normal dakshins.Since

photography is not permitted I have taken a photo of the temple

gopuram.There is also a navagraha temple there in Gauwhathi.

Later we went by train to New Jalpaiguri (railway station for

Siligurui).20-25 Kms from Siliguri there is another Sakthi Peetham at

Vaikunthpur where Sati Devi's forehead fell.There also you can feel the

presence of Ambaal.In front of the temple there a tree which has

Aal.Arasu and Vilvam joined together/There are no sacrifices in this

templeThe Ambaal name is Bhrammri Devi
