Complementary Kamkhya Temple Visit
6th & 7th Dec’24 // 9 AM
Kamakhya Temple

18 km from the venue, approx 4 hrs visit

The Kamakhya Temple, located in the Nilachal hills of Guwahati, Assam, stands as one of the most ancient and esteemed centers for Tantric practices, dedicated to the goddess Kamakhya. It serves as the focal point of the Kulachara Tantra Marga and hosts the Ambubachi Mela, an annual festival that honors the goddess's menstruation. The temple's architecture, primarily dating back to the 8th-9th century, has undergone numerous renovations, resulting in a distinctive local style known as Nilachal. It ranks among the four oldest of the 51 pithas in the Shakta tradition. Once a relatively obscure site, it gained prominence as a pilgrimage destination, particularly for devotees from Bengal, during the 19th century under colonial rule. Initially a local goddess's shrine where the worship of the aniconic yoni in natural stone persists, the Kamakhya Temple became associated with state authority when the Mleccha dynasty of Kamarupa first supported it, followed by the Palas, Koch, and Ahom dynasties. The Kalika Purana, composed during the Pala period, linked Naraka, the legitimizing ancestor of the Kamarupa kings, with the goddess Kamakhya, symbolizing both the region and the Kamarupa kingdom.
