Bengal Tarapith Temple – Guide 

Tarapith Temple is a major temple in the state of West Bengal, situated on the banks of the Dwarka River flowing in Birbhum at a distance of 264 km from Kolkata. Let us tell you that this ancient temple is one of the 51 Shaktipeeths of India and is a major pilgrimage site of Hinduism. Here in Tarapeeth, the eye string of Mata Sati had fallen, hence this religious place is also known as Nayan Tara Temple.

The Bengal Tarapith Temple is dedicated to Maa Tara. According to Hindu traditions, Maa Tara is considered the second of the ten goddesses of great wisdom and is also known as Kalika, Bhadra-Kali and Mahakali.

History of this Temple

The history of the Bengal Tarapith Temple dates back to the time when sage Vashishtha wanted to master the tantric arts, but failed despite his persistent efforts. He then went to meet Lord Buddha who asked Varishta to practice at Tarapeeth which was an ideal place to worship Maa Tara. At the behest of Buddha, Vashishtha came to Tarapeeth and started worshiping Maa Tara with Tantric rituals using Pancha Tarakara, i.e. five forbidden things. After this, mother Tara appeared in front of him after being pleased with Vashisht’s prayer and after that she turned into stone. After that day this idol is worshiped in Tarapeeth.
