Goddess Sati's Right Great Toe Fell Here || Jogadya Shaktipeeta: The Goddess LIVES Underwater!
Today, we’re exploring the mysterious Jogadya Temple in Kshirgram, one of the most powerful and ancient Shakti Peethas in India.
Hidden in the peaceful village of Purba Bardhaman, this temple holds many secrets waiting to be uncovered.
Why is the Vigraha of Maa Jogadya kept underwater in the sacred Kshirdighi pond all year… and only brought out on one special day?
What is the connection between the Goddess and her underwater Abode?
Why is there a mystical tunnel beneath this ancient temple?
What’s the story behind Hanuman Ji bringing the Goddess here?
And why are there two temples in Kshirgram instead of just one?
So, Let’s uncover the secrets that make Jogadya Temple not just a temple, but a truly spiritually powerful and unforgettable destination in India.
Nestled in the Purba Bardhaman district of West Bengal, the ancient village of Kshirgram, also known as Khirogram, holds profound religious significance as the location of the revered Jogadya (or Yugadya) temple.
This ancient temple is lovingly called Maa-er Baari, which means "The Mother's House."
Inside the temple, there’s a hidden tunnel that holds a deep mystery.
People believe this is the very path through which the Goddess rose from Patala,
or the same tunnel through which God Hanuman brought her to Kshirgram.
I’ll share the full story with you later in the video.
People here say this tunnel is a sacred gateway, and even now, it's protected by mystical serpents
The name of this village — Kshirgram or Kheergram — comes from Bhairava Baba’s divine form known as Kshirkanthak.
One of the most powerful legends behind this name takes us back to the time of Samudra Manthan, the great churning of the cosmic ocean by Devas and Asuras.
The first thing to come out wasn't nectar—it was Halahal, a deadly poison strong enough to destroy the entire universe.
In that moment, God Shiva, out of deep compassion, drank the poison to save all beings.
But the poison was so powerful, it turned his throat blue, earning him the name Neelkantha. The pain was unbearable.
To ease his suffering, Goddess Tara, one of the ten Mahavidyas, appeared. She gently took Shiva in her lap like a child and fed him divine milk from her breast.
That milk—Ksheer—cooled the burning poison in his throat.
From that moment, Shiva was called Kshirkanthak—"the one whose throat was soothed by milk."
And the village where this divine moment is believed to have happened came to be known as Kshirgram.
Inside the temple, we find the ancient Vigraha of Goddess Yugadya, also known as Jogadya. Her name comes from the Sanskrit words ‘Yuga’ meaning a cosmic age, and ‘Adya’ meaning the first. So, Yugadya translates to “the beginning of the age” or “the first of the Yugas.” She is revered as Sarvaprathama – the First of All – symbolizing her as the eternal, primordial force that exists beyond time.
But what makes this temple truly unique is the mystery behind the submerged Vigraha of Maa Jogadya.
To protect this ancient and sacred Vigraha from destruction during times of invasion, the temple’s guardians are believed to have hidden it deep within the waters of Kshirdighi. Over time, this became a powerful ritual practice. Even today, the Vigraha remains submerged throughout the year and is brought out only once annually—on Baishakhi Sankranti, the last day of the Bengali month of Baishakh—during the grand festival of Maha Puja.
