There is a unique temple amidst the hills of Kaimur in Rohtas district of Sasaram, Bihar, whose glory is talked about in every corner of the country. We are talking about Maa Tarachandi Dham which has the distinction of being one of the 51 Shaktipeeths of Sati. It is believed that when Lord Vishnu dismembered the mortal remains of Mata Sati with his Chakra, his right eye i.e. ‘Tara’ had fallen here, due to which this place got its sacred name.
This Dham is considered very special not only for the common devotees but also for those who practice Tantra. It is directly related to the famous Kamakhya temple of Assam. Experts say that among the four ‘Mudra Peethas’ in the whole of India, Kamakhya and Tarachandi rank at the top. While Mahamudra is worshiped in Kamakhya, the eye form of the Mother predominates here, making it a powerful spiritual centre.

Center of divine vision:Here the mother is worshiped in both the forms of ‘Kumari’ and ‘Chandi’. Devotees have an unwavering belief that paying obeisance here not only provides mental peace but also infuses a new and divine vision into life.
Confluence of nature and faith: The most special thing about this temple is that there is no artificial idol here. Only the natural figure emerged on a huge boulder (stone) is worshipped. Devotees consider the eternal flame burning inside the temple as the real form of the Mother Goddess.
Center of Sadhana: During Navratri, the atmosphere here looks exactly like Kamakhya. Here, devotees from all over the country gather for tantric attainments. According to ancient beliefs, a deep energy cycle works between Kamakhya and Tarachandi, making it the most suitable place for Tantra Sadhana.
