There is no idol of the presiding deity but she is worshipped in the form of a yoni-like stone instead over which a natural spring flows.〔〔 ==Tantric fertility festival==
This mela is also known as Ameti or Tantric fertility festival since it is closely associated with Tantric Shakti cult prevalent in eastern parts of India. Even some Tantric Babas make their public appearances only during these four days. The rest of the year, they remain in seclusion. Some Babas are seen displaying their psychic powers like putting their heads in a pit and stand upright on it, standing on one leg for hours at a stretch.〔
