Nandikeshwari Temple

Nandikeshwari Temple, Hindu temple in Sainthia, India

Nandikeshwari Temple houses a black stone idol of the goddess, adorned with red sindur, a silver crown, and three golden eyes. The complex features multiple shrines dedicated to Ram-Sita, Shiva, Maha Saraswati, and Hanuman throughout its grounds.

Built in 1913, the temple marks the legendary site where the goddess Sati's jewels fell according to Hindu tradition. This designation placed it among the 51 sacred Shakti Peethas, places of major spiritual significance.

Worshippers gather during Baishakhi Purnima and Buddha Purnima to participate in traditional rituals and offer prayers to the goddess. These festivals bring the community together to express devotion through age-old ceremonies.

Visitors can explore multiple prayer locations throughout the complex, each dedicated to different deities. The temple is most rewarding during festival periods, though quieter days allow for a more personal experience at each shrine.

A large sacred banyan tree on the temple grounds hosts a distinctive practice where visitors attach red and yellow threads as they make their wishes. This ritual connects personal hopes to the spiritual essence of the location.
