Photos Of Dhekiakhowa Bornamghar
Jorhat, Assam, India
Dhekiakhowa Bornamghar is one of the most revered and historically significant places of worship in Assam, India. Established in 1461 A.D. by the great Assamese saint and reformer, Sri Sri Madhavdeva, a principal disciple of Srimanta Sankardeva, this 'Namghar' (prayer house) is a central hub for the Ekasarana Dharma (Neo-Vaishnavite tradition). The name "Dhekiakhowa" is rooted in a legend. It is said that when Madhavdeva visited the village, he was offered a simple meal of rice and Dhekia Saak (fiddlehead fern) by a poor, elderly couple. Immensely pleased by their devotion and hospitality, he chose this very spot to establish the Namghar. The most remarkable and spiritually compelling feature of this site is the Aakhanda Banti (eternal lamp), which Madhavdeva is said to have lit in 1528 A.D. and which has been continuously burning for over five centuries, maintained by the priests with mustard oil. The entire complex, spreading over an area of about 13 bighas (approximately 4.3 acres), is a sanctuary of peace, spirituality, and cultural preservation, drawing thousands of devotees, especially during the sacred Assamese month of Bhado (August-September). It is not merely a temple but a center for social, cultural, and religious activities, embodying the unity and egalitarian principles of the Ekasarana faith. The complex includes the main Namghar, the Monikut (sanctum sanctorum), a holy pond (Sarovar), and various other structures for pilgrims and cultural activities. (401 words)
