In this soulful episode, we journey to the ancient Kollur Mookambika Temple, nestled in the Western Ghats of Karnataka — a place where the silence of the forest merges with the power of the divine feminine.
We explore the origin legend of Mookambika Devi, the slaying of the demon Mookasura, and how this temple uniquely combines Adi Shakti, Saraswati, Lakshmi, and Parvati into a single powerful presence. This is not just a temple — it is a spiritual paradox: wild yet serene, fierce yet tender.
For centuries, devotees, musicians, writers, and seekers of wisdom have come here in quiet longing — not just for darshan, but to be held by something deeper than words.
In this episode:
The story of Mookambika Devi and Mookasura’s curse
The symbolism of the Jyotirlinga and Trishakti Peetha
What makes this temple feel so personal — especially for those going through inner silence or creative drought
This episode is an audio offering — a pause, a prayer, and a small invitation to remember that the goddess does not always roar… sometimes, she simply waits.
Whether you’ve visited Kollur or are hearing her name for the first time, may this story reach a quiet part of you.
