How To Reach Sheetla Mata Mandir
Jalandhar, Punjab, India
Historical Context: The Sheetla Mata Mandir in Basti Sheikh is one of the oldest and most revered Hindu shrines in Jalandhar. It is dedicated to Maa Sheetla (Sheetla Devi), a manifestation of Goddess Durga, primarily associated with healing, particularly the protection of children from diseases like smallpox (now largely eradicated) and general well-being. Legend and Deity: The name 'Sheetla' means 'the cool one,' as the Goddess is believed to cool the fever and heat associated with contagious diseases. The temple holds the sacred idol of Maa Sheetla, which is regularly adorned with red cloth and flowers. Devotees offer simple, cold food (Basoda), and prayers for the health, prosperity, and safety of their children. Cultural Significance: The temple is a cornerstone of the local community's faith. While its historical structure has seen many renovations, its spiritual energy remains profound, acting as a pillar of faith and a gathering point for traditional rituals.
