Photos Of Maithan Temple
Tezpur, Assam, India
The Maithan Temple, locally known as Bhairabi Temple or Bhairabi Devalaya, is a revered Hindu shrine dedicated to Goddess Bhairabi, an incarnation of Goddess Durga. Located on the picturesque outskirts of Tezpur, the temple stands as a significant Shakti Peeth in Assam, attracting a large number of devotees and tourists seeking blessings. It is steeped in ancient Hindu mythology, particularly related to the Dwapar Yuga. Legend holds that Usha, the daughter of the mighty demon King Banasura (who reigned over Sonitpur, the ancient name of Tezpur), regularly worshipped Goddess Bhairabi at this very spot. The current structure, though believed to be around 400-years-old, stands on a site where worship is said to have occurred since around 5000 BC. The temple offers a spiritual journey, with a long staircase leading up from the approach road to the main shrine. From its elevated position, visitors can enjoy stunning, panoramic views, especially of the majestic Kolia Bhomora Setu (bridge) built across the vast Brahmaputra River. The surrounding area is characterized by serene greenery, which enhances the temple's divine and peaceful aura. The temple's management has historically been associated with the Borthakur family of Tezpur, though it is now managed by the government through the District Deputy Commissioner's office. It serves as a sacred place for people to offer prayers, make sacrificial offerings (historically including goats, ducks, and pigeons), and seek fulfillment of their wishes from the powerful Goddess Durga in her form as Bhairabi. Its tranquil location and profound historical and spiritual background make it a memorable destination in Tezpur.
