Mangla Gauri
Devi/Shakti
About
In the adjoining oblong temple, separated from the larger one only by a few columns, under a brass dome, stands the image of Mangla Gauri, a black-faced white-eyed statue about a meter high. The goddess is worshipped by the prayer (Kashi Khanda, 49.58): O mother Bhavani, O destroyer of the entire fierce miseries of this world, You alone are the ultimate refuge, no else other. Only they are blessed in all the worlds, Only they are worthy of honor, in whom your splendid glance of mercy falls and shines.
