More about Tripureswari Temple / Matabari(Udaipur, Tripura)

According to the Hindu Mythology once, Prajapati Daksha (The great King of God) had arranged for a 'Mahayagna' (great sacrificial rite). All Gods except Shiva were invited. Sati turned up in her father's home without any invitation. Suddenly, Daksha started condemning Shiva and Goddess Sati unable to bear the insult of her husband gave up her life at the yagna. When Shiva heard this, he assumed a destructive mood and plundered the Yagna and took up the life-less body of Sati on his shoulders and began 'Tandava-Nritya' or a frantic annihilation dance which threatened the whole creation with extinction. After all ways to stop the 'Tandava' failed, Lord Vishnu used his spinning weapon, 'The Sudarshan Chakra' and that severed the body into pieces and relieved Shiva of this fatal obsession. The 51 fragments of the body fell on to various parts of the Sub-continent, which were later, referred to as Maha-Pithas and developed into places of pilgrimage. In Udaipur, Tripura there is one such place where the right toe of the goddess is believed to have fallen. In 1501 A. D. (1423 Saka Era) Maharaja Dhanya Manikya built the Tripura Sundari Temple, which is also known as Mata Bari (Mother’s abode) or Tripureswari Temple. According to the Rajmala (the recorded historical document of the Royal family), the King had planned for a Vishnu Temple but received divine instructions in his dreams from Devi Bhagavati to fetch the idol of the Goddess from Chittagong and install at the present temple site.
