Dhorbarahi temple

Dhorbarahi temple

The Dhorbarahi temple is dedicated to Goddess Barahi and is located in Baajsthal in Suklagandaki municipality. One of the major attractions of this temple is a small fishpond whose water level secretively raises and falls. Every 15 minutes fresh water gushes out from between the rocks and then subsides which is attractive for worshippers who come to make their help at the temple. References to this temple have been mentioned in verses 22 to 30, chapter 5 in the “Skanda Puran” which is a genre of eighteen Hindu religious texts. Visiting and making help at this temple is believed to make your hope turn to reality. People come and worship at the temple believing that there is the third reincarnation of lord Vishnu in the temple.
Main events in the lunar calendar that bring in hundreds of worshippers are Shreepanchami, Chaite Dashain and Bada Dashain. Located 5 km from the Prithivi highway, a vehicle journey to the temples would take 20 min from the highway at Dulegauda or an hour walk.
