Hinglaj MATA Mandir In Balochistan , Pakistan

Hinglaj MATA cave Mandir In Balochistan , Pakistan


Hinglaj Mata is a Hindu temple in Hinglaj, a town on the Makran coast in the Lasbela district of Balochistan, Pakistan. It is one of the Shakti Peethas of Goddess Sati. According to a legend, when goddess Sati, the consort of god Shiva, burnt herself in response to her father's anger at her for inviting Shiva to a ceremony, Shiva became furious and started to create disasters, problems, violence, and sufferings in the world. In order to calm his anger, god Vishnu took the body of Sati and cut it into 51 pieces which all fell at different parts of the Earth. Hindus believe that the head of Sati fell in the area of Hinglaj Mata in Baluchistan, present-day Pakistan. Thus, this area is a revered pilgrimage site for Hindus.
