One can find all required amenities in nearby location. Puja's can be performed on request. ==Story〔https://archive.org/details/shri_durga_book〕== According to Hindu myth, goddess defeated the ill energies in one night and saved Guhagar from the possible destruction. During her war with enemy, a pearl from one of the ornaments was broken. Goddess ordered one of her devotees to collect the broken pearl from a tree near seashore. Even today the said pearl is in the ornamental collection of the goddess and occasionally it is kept in the main hall for display purpose. Another story tells us that once upon a time a person with rash on his body due to some allergy, came to the temple. He was suffering from unbearable pains. He sat in the temple premises for three consecutive days without food and water and was just chanting the name of goddess. On third day the goddess came in the form of an old lady. She gave him some oil for application on the rash and in further three days period, the rash along with pains got vanished. The goddess also killed a devil named 'Mahishasoor'〔Mahishasura〕 and hence got the name 'Mahishasoor Mardini'〔http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/works-of-art/1993.7〕〔http://www.metmuseum.org/collections/search-the-collections/38583〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Durga Devi temple, Guhagar」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
