Naulakha Mandir in Deoghar, Jharkhand
Rani Charushila Devi built the Noulakha temple. She was the queen of Pathuriya Ghat’s Jorabagan in Kolkata and became a widow at an early age. After this, she accepted Balananda Brahmachari’s discipleship.
History of Naulakha Mandir Deoghar
The temple is like the Ramakrishna temple in Belur. Radha-Krishna, Gopal, and Swami Balananda Brahmachari idols are inside the temple, which was built with marble.
Charushila Devi’s sculpture, made of white marble, is situated at the entrance of the Mandir. Rani Charushila Devi spent 9 lakh rupees to build this temple in 1940. Hence, the temple’s name is Naulakha Mandir. The Naulakha temple is 146 feet high.
She belonged to the royal family of Paturia Ghat in Kolkata. Unfortunately, her husband, Akshay Ghosh, and son, Jitendra Chandra Ghosh, died. She became detached from her family. She came to Karnibad in Deoghar and stayed at the ashram of Balananda Brahmachari.
Charushila Devi established the temple in his direction. After a few months, Sri Kali Das Ram, a renowned engineer from West Bengal, became a disciple of Swami Balananda Brahmachari. Charushila Devi gave him the responsibility of temple-making.
The area is large, and you can stay inside the temple as you wish. However, it is a visitable destination for sightseeing in Deoghar.
Please Note:
- Photography and Videography are not allowed inside the temple.
- There is no entry fee.
