Vishalakshi Temple

One of the 52 Shaktipeeths of Mother Shakti, Kashi Vishalakshi Temple is considered as a very holy pilgrimage place. According to a legend, when Bhagwati Sati's body was hanging on her shoulder in a disciplined manner in the Lord Shiva world, then Lord Vishnu broke the body of Mother's body through her Sudarshan Chakra to reduce her sorrow. He had separated from Mahadev. At that time in all the places where the body parts of the body, clothes or ornaments had fallen, all the places were called periodically called Shaktipeeth. It is believed that 'Kashi Vishalakshi Temple' is situated in the same place where the mother of Sati had an eye or right ear (coil) gem (coil) fell. Here 'Bhagwati Gauri' is worshiped as 'Maa Vishalakshi'. This temple is also called 'Visalakshi Shaktipeeth'.
According to Skanda Purana, 'Maa Vishalakshi' is the fifth gauri in nine giris (nine ladies) and Lord Shri Kashi Vishwanath rests near his temple. It is said that 'Maa Vishalakshi' is 'Mother Annapurna', which provides food to all the creatures of the world. According to another legend of Skanda Purana, once Rishi Vyas did not offer any food to Varanasi, then Ms Vishalakshi herself appeared in the presence of a housewife and gave food to Sage Vyas.
