How To Reach Mansa Devi Temple
Haridwar, Uttarakhand, India
The Mansa Devi Temple is one of the most sacred and ancient temples in Haridwar, nestled atop the Bilwa Parvat of the Shivalik Hills. It is revered as one of the three Siddh Peethas (places where wishes are fulfilled) in the region, along with the Chandi Devi Temple and the Maya Devi Temple. Dedicat ed to Goddess Mansa Devi, who is believed to have emerged from the mind of Lord Shiva and is worshipped as the Goddess of Snakes (Nagas), the temple is a spiritual powerhouse. The name Mansa is derived from 'Manasa' (wish), signifying her ability to grant the earnest desires of her devotees. A unique ritual performed here is the tying of a sacred thread (sutra) to the branches of an ancient tree within the temple premises while making a wish; devotees return to untie the thread upon the wish's fulfillment. This tradition draws thousands of pilgrims daily. The temple houses two principal forms of the Goddess: one with eight arms and another with three heads and five arms. The journey to the temple is an experience in itself, offering devotees a choice between a picturesque trek uphill or a scenic cable car ride (Mansa Devi Udan Khatola), providing breathtaking panoramic views of the entire Haridwar city and the meandering Ganga River below. The temple was historically established between 1811 and 1815 by Maharaja Gopal Singh of Manimajra, built upon the site where local legends say a cow once offered milk to three holy stones, which were revealed to be the divine shilas imbued with Sati's essence.
