Pap Mochini Temple Pushkar Rajasthan

 

Pap Mochini Temple in Pushkar is one of its kinds. Its actual meaning in Sanskrit is Pap means 'sin' and Mochini means 'Absolving'. This prized temple in Pushkar is out-and-out dedicated to highly worshipped Ekadashi Mata who is supposed to lull her supporters from all basic sins. In ancient India, where people were more religious and superstitious, it was thought that killing a Brahmin would upsurge to undying punishment and the spirit of the killer would be disaster-prone forever.

Moreover, it does not make any difference that if he kills the most revered Brahmins knowingly or unknowingly, he or she will not be escaped from the punishment that is destined for him as Brahmins are considered to be in the uppermost in the pyramidal plane of the Hindu community. So, the Pap Mochini Temple was specially constructed to honor Goddess Ekadashi Mata whose kind blessings can only free her devotees from this upheaval.

This exotic Pap Mochini Temple has got one or the famous myth associated to it. For instance, it is also said that once Lord Krishna cursed the well known epic character from Mahabharata named Ashwathama, to wander about in the earth for around three thousand years. His soul comes to this temple to get salvation once in a year, and this time in temple is appropriate for prayer.

Last but not the least, the enigmatic attractiveness of the Pap Mochini Temple can be well observed from a little distance; on the left is the holy Lake where the aficionados take a sacrosanct dip, while on the right side there is Sandy Mela Ground that paves the way to the parched district Marwar, better known as Marwar plateau.

So, this is the right place and right time to take a step on the precincts of Pushkar to walk around this hallowed place of Pap Mochini Temple whose experience is unassailable.
