bihar
,

if

darbhanga.Mother
Kali's
Dham
Shyama
Kali
templeĀ is
built
on
the
pyre
inĀ Darbhanga,Ā Bihar.
A
large
number
of
devotees
visit
here
and
allĀ ManglikĀ works
are
also
done.
This
temple
is
known
as
Shyama
Mai's
temple.Shyama
Mai's
temple
is
built
on
the
pyre
ofĀ Maharaja
Rameshwar
SinghĀ at
the
crematorium
Ghat
and
is
an
unusual
occurrence
in
itself.
Maharaja
Rameshwar
Singh
was
one
of
the
seeker
kings
of
the
Darbhanga
royal
family.
Due
to
the
name
of
the
king,
this
temple
is
known
as
Rameshwari
Shyama
Mai.
The
temple
was
founded
byĀ Maharaj
Kameshwar
SinghĀ of
Darbhanga
in
1933.
The
statueĀ of
mother
was
brought
from
Paris
-
Historians
say
that
this
statue
came
fromĀ Paris.
Visiting
the
feet
of
Mother
Shyama
Kali
fulfills
every
wish
of
the
devotees.
On
the
part
of
the
mother,
there
is
a
delectable
Raktim
or
yellow
cloth.
This
idol
of
Maa
Kali
is
of
four
arms.
The
right
hand
always
blesses
the
visiting
refugees.
The
entire
temple
complex
is
always
in
a
bustling
mood
and
the
atmosphere
is
vibrant
with
Jai
Shyama
Mai's
Jayghosh.
In
this
temple,
mother
Kali
is
worshiped
with
bothĀ VedicĀ andĀ TantricĀ methods.
Usually
inĀ HinduismĀ the
couple
does
not
go
to
the
cremation
ground
until
after
1
year
of
marriage.
But
in
this
temple
built
in
the
cremation
ground,
not
only
newlyweds
come
to
seek
blessings,
but
weddings
are
also
done
in
this
temple.
Experts
say
that
Shyama
Mai
Mata
is
the
form
ofĀ Sita.
Laldas,
who
was
a
servant
of
King
Rameshwar
Singh,
has
explained
this
in
the
Rameshwar
Charit
Mithila
Ramayana.
It
is
derived
from
theĀ RamayanaĀ composed
byĀ Valmiki.
It
is
told
that
after
Ravana
was
killed,
Mother-Sita
told
Lord
Rama
that
whoever
slays
Sahatrananda
will
be
the
real
hero.
On
this,
LordĀ RamaĀ went
out
to
kill
him.
During
the
war,
Lord
Rama
got
an
arrow
from
Sahasranand.
Mother
Sita
became
very
angry
on
this
and
killed
Sahastranand.
Mother's
color
turned
black
with
anger.
Even
after
the
slaughter,
his
anger
did
not
calm
down,
so
Lord
Shiva
himself
had
to
come
to
stop
him.
As
soon
as
the
feet
were
placed
on
the
Lord's
chest,
the
mother
was
very
ashamed
and
the
tongue
came
out
of
her
mouth.
This
form
of
Mother
is
worshiped
and
she
is
called
here
as
Kali
not
Shyama
