About
The Vishalakshi Devi Temple, also known as Vishalakshi Gauri Mandir, is a Hindu temple in Varanasi dedicated to the goddess Parvati. It is regarded as one of the 51 Shakti Pithas, where Shakti is worshipped as Vishalakshi Devi and Bhairava as Kaal Bhairav. The temple is believed to mark the site where the gem from Sati’s right earring (manikarṇa) fell; consequently, the goddess is also known as Manikarni Devi.
