A very important incidents in Ramayana is about Ahilya the wife of sage Gautham who cut his wife and she turned into stone and waited for ages forums touch to come alive Again The Story Goes as Ram was going to Janakpur his feet touched the stone and Alia become alive out of it nowadays temple is situated in Ahilya asthan which is 24 km north of Darbhanga town. It is in the state of Bihar, India. In this temple, lady, performs all the rituals of the God and the Goddess, this makes the temple different from all the other ones.

The temple is quiet and calming. This temple is about Devi Ahalya who according to the Hindu Mythalogy was turned into the stone due to the curse of her husband and was revived again to her normal self by the mere touch of Lord Shree Ram. The temple is beautifully made with fine patterns and designs but it has not been taken good care of as the paints are coming off from here and there, plaster is coming out, small plants are growing out of its walls, it has started to ruin. Proper care must have to be taken of this temple otherwise very soon we will lose the heritage site of Mithilanchal and one beautiful temple will turn into ruins. The authority should take proper care to revive the temple and promote Bihar Tourism.

Ahalya Sthan is the place where once the ashram of Maharishi Gautama stood. The temple, in its present structural form was built between 1662 and 1682 during the rule of Maharaja Chhatra Singh and Maharaja Rudra Singh. This is also the first Ram Janaki temple in India.The temple is beautifully made with fine patterns and designs of art and ancient Indian architecture. Inside the shrine, there is a flat stone said to contain the foot prints of Sita, wife of Ram, as the main object of worship.

(Translated by Google) Darbhanga district is Ahiyari village under Sadar subdivision, which is known as Ahilya place. Kamatoul railway station is descending here. This place is located 40 km east of Sitamarhi, the birthplace of Sita. It is said that Lord Rama saved Ahilya at this place by the order of sage Vishwamitra. There is no doubt that Ahilya-nagari or Gautam Ashram was in Mithila. In Bhojpur, Rama had done Tadka. There, Sanuja Rama protected the yajna of sage Vishwamitra by suppressing the evil demons with his power. Rama rescued Ahilya before entering Mithila state, and then from there he went to Prague North direction (Ishan Kon) and reached Videha Nagri Janakpur with sage Vishwamitra. According to the legend mentioned in the Ramayana, Rama and Lakshmana went to see the forest groves of Mithilapuri, along with the sage Vishwamitra, then they saw a deserted place in a park. Ram said, "Lord! In looking at this place it looks like an ashram, but what is the reason that no sage or muni is seen here?" Vishwamitra told that this place was once the ashram of Maharishi Gautama. He used to do penance by staying here with his wife. One day when Gautam Rishi went outside the ashram, in his absence, Indra came in disguise of Gautam Rishi and pleaded with Ahalya. Ahalya recognized Indra and did not approve. When Indra was returning to his world, coming back to his ashram, the sight of Gautam Rishi who was disguising himself as Indra He cursed Indra with anger. After this, he cursed his wife that you remained in ashes here after suffering only by drinking air for thousands of years. When Rama enters this forest, only then will you be saved by his grace. Only then you will be able to come to me after wearing your former body. Saying this, Gautam Rishi left this ashram and went to Himayal and started doing penance. That is why Vishwamitra Ji said, "O Ram! Now you go inside the ashram and save Ahalya." After listening to Vishwamitra Ji, both of them entered inside the ashram. There Ahilya was not visible anywhere in penance, only her fast was spreading in the whole environment. When Ahalya's vision fell upon Rama, she received her holy vision and once again started to appear as a beautiful woman. Rama and Lakshmana reverently touched her feet in front of Ahilya in female form. He received due respect from him and returned to Mithila Puri with Muniraj. Ahalya or Ahalya is a female character mentioned in the legend of Sanatana Dharma, who was the wife of Gautama Rishi. His story is found sporadically in the Brahmins and Puranas and his story is described in detail in the Ramayana and later Ramakathas. According to the stories, it was the wife of Rishi Gautama and the daughter of Brahmaji. Brahma made Ahalya the most beautiful woman. All the gods wanted to marry him. Brahma laid a condition that the first person who visits Trilok will remember Ahalya. Indra first visited Trilok with all her miraculous power. But then Narada told Brahmaji that sage Gautama had done before Indra. Naradji told Brahma that in his daily worship order, sage Gautama gave birth to a calf while orbiting the cow mother. According to Vedana, circumambulation of cow at this stage is similar to Trilok circumambulation. In this way Mata Ahalya was married to Rishi Gautama, son of Atri Rishi. Sage Gautama cursed Mata Ahilya and made a stone because of Indra's mistake. Later, she became a woman again through the footsteps of Lord Shri Ram. In the Hindu tradition, they are counted as one of the holiest five girls of the world, the Panchakanya and are considered to be remembered in the morning. According to the belief, the name of these Panchakanya mornings in the morning destroys all sins. Ajoy Mata Di (Original) दरभंगा जिले सदर अनुमंडल के अंतर्गत अहियारी गाँव है, जो अहिल्या स्थान के नाम से विख्यात है। कमतौल रेलवे स्टेशन से उतरकर यहाँ पहुंचा जाता है। यह स्थान सीता की जन्मस्थली सीतामढ़ी से 40 कि॰मी॰ पूर्व में स्थित है। कहा जाता है कि ऋषि विश्वामित्र की आज्ञा से इसी स्थान पर भगवान श्री राम ने अहिल्या का उद्धार किया था। इसमें कोई संदेह नहीं है कि अहिल्या-नगरी अथवा गौतम आश्रम मिथिला में ही था। भोजपुर में राम ने ताड़का -बध किया था। वहाँ सानुज राम ने ऋषि विश्वामित्र की यज्ञ की रक्षा उत्पाती राक्षसों का अपनी शक्ति से दमन कर की थी। मिथिला राज्य में प्रवेश कर पहले राम ने अहिल्या का उद्धार किया, और तत्पश्चात वहाँ से प्राग उत्तर दिशा (ईशान कोण) में चलकर वे ऋषि विश्वामित्र के साथ विदेह नगरी जनकपुर  पहुंचे। रामायण में वर्णित कथा के अनुसार राम और लक्ष्मण ऋषि विश्वामित्र के साथ मिथिलापुरी के वन उपवन आदि देखने के लिये निकले तो उन्होंने एक उपवन में एक निर्जन स्थान देखा। राम बोले, "भगवन्! यह स्थान देखने में तो आश्रम जैसा दिखाई देता है किन्तु क्या कारण है कि यहाँ कोई ऋषि या मुनि दिखाई नहीं देते?" विश्वामित्र जी ने बताया, यह स्थान कभी महर्षि गौतम का आश्रम था। वे अपनी पत्नी के साथ यहाँ रह कर तपस्या करते थे। एक दिन जब गौतम ऋषि आश्रम के बाहर गये हुये थे तो उनकी अनुपस्थिति में इन्द्र ने गौतम ऋषि के वेश में आकर अहिल्या से प्रणय याचना की। अहिल्या ने इन्द्र को पहचान लिया और स्वीकृति नहीं दी। जब इन्द्र अपने लोक लौट रहे थे तभी अपने आश्रम को वापस आते हुये गौतम ऋषि की दृष्टि इन्द्र पर पड़ी जो उन्हीं का वेश धारण किये हुये था। क्रोधवश उन्होंने इन्द्र को शाप दे दिया। इसके बाद उन्होंने अपनी पत्नी को शाप दिया कि तू हजारों वर्षों तक केवल हवा पीकर कष्ट उठाती हुई यहाँ राख में पड़ी रहे। जब राम इस वन में प्रवेश करेंगे तभी उनकी कृपा से तेरा उद्धार होगा। तभी तू अपना पूर्व शरीर धारण करके मेरे पास आ सकेगी। यह कह कर गौतम ऋषि इस आश्रम को छोड़कर हिमायल पर जाकर तपस्या करने लगे। इसलिये विश्वामित्र जी ने कहा "हे राम! अब तुम आश्रम के अन्दर जाकर अहिल्या का उद्धार करो।" विश्वामित्र जी की बात सुनकर वे दोनों भाई आश्रम के भीतर प्रविष्ट हुये। वहाँ तपस्या में निरत अहिल्या कहीं दिखाई नहीं दे रही थी, केवल उसका तेज सम्पूर्ण वातावरण में व्याप्त हो रहा था। जब अहिल्या की दृष्टि राम पर पड़ी तो उनके पवित्र दर्शन पाकर एक बार फिर सुन्दर नारी के रूप में दिखाई देने लगी। नारी रूप में अहिल्या को सम्मुख पाकर राम और लक्ष्मण ने श्रद्धापूर्वक उनके चरण स्पर्श किये। उससे उचित आदर सत्कार ग्रहण कर वे मुनिराज के साथ पुनः मिथिला पुरी को लौट आये। अहल्या अथवा अहिल्या सनातन धर्म की कथाओं में वर्णित एक स्त्री पात्र हैं, जो गौतम ऋषि की पत्नी थीं। ब्राह्मणों और पुराणों में इनकी कथा छिटपुट रूप से कई जगह प्राप्त होती है और रामायण और बाद की रामकथाओं में विस्तार से इनकी कथा वर्णित है। कथाओं के अनुसार यह गौतम ऋषि की पत्नी और ब्रह्माजी की मानसपुत्री थी। ब्रह्मा ने अहल्या को सबसे सुंदर स्त्री बनाया। सभी देवता उनसे विवाह करना चाहते थे। ब्रह्मा ने एक शर्त रखी जो सबसे पहले त्रिलोक का भ्रमण कर आएगा वही अहल्या का वरण करेगा। इंद्रा अपनी सभी चमत्कारी शक्ति द्वारा सबसे पहले त्रिलोक का भ्रमण कर आये। लेकिन तभी नारद ने ब्रह्माजी को बताया की ऋषि गौतम ने इंद्र से पहले किया है। नारदजी ने ब्रह्माजी को बताया की अपने दैनिक पूजा क्रम में ऋषि गौतम ने गाय माता का परिक्रमा करते समय बछडे को जन्म दिया। वेदानुसार इस अवस्था में गाय की परिक्रमा करना त्रिलोक परिक्रमा समान होता है। इस तरह माता अहल्या की शादी अत्रि ऋषि के पुत्र ऋषि गौतम से हुए। इंद्र के गलती की वजह ऋषि गौतम ने माता अहिल्या शाप देकर पत्थर बना दिया। कालांतर में प्रभु श्रीराम के चरणस्पर्श द्वारा वे पुन: स्त्री बनी। हिन्दू परम्परा में इन्हें, सृष्टि की पवित्रतम पाँच कन्याओं, पंचकन्याओं में से एक गिना जाता है और इन्हें प्रातः स्मरणीय माना जाता है। मान्यता अनुसार प्रातःकाल इन पंचकन्याओं का नाम स्मरण सभी पापों का विनाश करता है। 💐💐🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💐💐जय माता दी💐💐🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💐💐

Awesome hindu temple of ahilya sthan.

Hindu historic place for worship all wishes is fulfilled here. During my childhood my guardian had wishes it comes true 🙏

Ahalya Sthan is a place of historical and mythological significance in Hinduism. According to Hindu mythology, Ahalya was the wife of Gautama Maharishi, a sage who lived in ancient India. She was cursed by her husband and turned into a stone due to her infidelity. Later, Lord Rama, an incarnation of the Hindu God Vishnu, came to the site and touched the stone, restoring Ahalya's human form. This place is revered as a sacred spot by Hindus, and there are several Ahalya Sthan temples and shrines located throughout India.

Please Sit for a while . Energies around is pure and magical .. If you ask for anything.with pure intensions . You will not be disappointed 😉. Absorb the energy .Sona Mai Is kind and She gives Blessings to everyone

This is the best temple I was seen ..this design and ..I know about something this temple is 300+ years old. I suggest you to come and see this design and development

This is historical place at the heart of Mithilanchal Bihar. Quite and calm place and only filled with devotion. Architecture of old temple is very good but it's not fully preserved or maintained. New temple is also partially completed but under construction. These places need government attention to renovate. These will provide good scope of tourism in the area.

The place has an important spot in the Ramayana, where Lord Ram had transformed the stone(due to curse) into the lady Ahalya's original form. Despite of such importance, the temple and its surrounding is not maintained properly. There are shops. The temple requires renovation.

Ahilya Asthan stands in a village called Ahiya Gram which along with the temple is said to date back to the time of Ramayana. It is dedicated to Ahilya, wife of Gautam Rishi. According to mythology, he had cursed her to turn into a stone. But when Lord Rama’s feet touched the stone on his way to Mithila, she regained her human form. This famous temple is located at a distance of 3 km from the Railway Station of Kamtaul in the Jale block. Festival of Ramnavmi is celebrated here with high enthusiasm every year in late March-early April. Besides this temple, the village hosts many other temples and mosques.

Wow

it is a good place to visit if you are fond of ancient places.

Ahalya Sthan is the place where once the ashram of Maharishi Gautama stood. The temple, in its present structural form was built between 1662 and 1682 during the rule of Maharaja Chhatra Singh and Maharaja Rudra Singh. This is also the first Ram Janaki temple in India.[4] The temple is beautifully made with fine patterns and designs of art and ancient Indian architecture. Inside the shrine, there is a flat stone said to contain the foot prints of Sita, wife of Ram, as the main object of worship

This place has a very vivid history from the epic Ramayana. Although this place has been not properly maintained, still it is quite a nice place to visit and experience the legacies of the Epic Ramayana and God Rama.

A famous temple dedicated to Lord Rama and Sita makes this place popular among followers. This holy site is situated at Ahiari village under the Jale block, 20 km from Darbhanga town. Ahilya Sthaan is revered with mythological significance that Ahilya was great saint Gautam’s wife. She was cursed to become a stone statue, but was brought back to life after Lord Rama, who happened to pass through the village, touched the statue.

Structure is in bad condition need to get repair soon. Being a heritage property government should also focus.

It is a very beautiful and holy place in Darbhanga city. I'm visits many times in this place. So, it is such a holy and grateful place.

nice place to visit.good parking facility

Darbhanga district is Ahiyari village under Sadar subdivision, which is known as Ahilya place. Kamatoul railway station is descending here. This place is located 40 km east of Sitamarhi, the birthplace of Sita. It is said that Rama saved Ahilya at this place by the order of sage Vishwamitra.

Road was very good shown by google while going to there but while returning to jalley the map shown by google was a mishaps

It's included in Ramayan circuit of India, very old temple and still in great shape... although reaching there following navigation by Scooty was tough but it is nice to visit with family. My grandmother loved it.

Spiritual Place related to Ramayan. But need development of Infrastructure and Tourists Facilities.

As per Ramayana this is the place where Mata Ahilya returned to their original form from stone. The ancient temple of Lord Rama is also available here. But the condition of this temple is not good. Govt. should take care of these kind of ancient temples and structires which relates us to our origin.

Beautiful place must go for visit

It's sad to see that a place with such historical importance is left unconsidered, except for the local villages not much people are aware of the fact that this is where Lord Rama freed Ahalya Bai from her curse. It's so quiet there, away from city's chaos as the place is almost 30km from Darbhanga district. For people like me, it's a must visit place if you're ever visiting Darbhanga. And after visiting Ahalya Sthan you can also head to "Gautam Kuti" which is not more than 5km from there.

So glad to visit this place. Ahilya mata was blessed for life by lord shri RAM here. Also this is Nani's house of lord Hanuman. Temple was ancient and is under maintenance.

Peaceful and calm place. Mata Ahilya got her body in original here by the holy feet touch of lord Shri Ram.

temple needs some serious renovation as weeds have grown all over the temple and maintenance level is pathetic as it is a noted tourist destination of Bihar govt and it's our cultural heritage as well. jai Ahilyabai

Very nice temple Jai sri RAM.🙏

Ahilya Sthan is very old and very old. This place comes under Ramayana. Lord Rama visited this place during his 14 years Vanvash.

So nice

Nice

Nice peaceful place to visit...

Being a very important and sacred place for Hindus in context of Ramayana the place has not been managed. The Government has not shown the importance of maintaining it. I liked the place because of simplicity and peace. It would have been managed well if it's the matter with other states in India. But Bihar Government does not give a damn about any Hindu Pilgrim places in the state.

Very peaceful
