Overview

Karni Mata Temple holds a unique place in Bikaner and people from all over the world come here to experience this uniqueness here. A religious centre where believe meets spirituality, here you can see thousands of rats roaming here and there in the complex without any inhibition- a sight which is not only rare but hard to find anywhere else. Pay your reverence to Karni Mata, feed rats and be the part of the prayer.

Description

Karni Mata Temple is a rare manifestation of belief and spirituality. Home to thousands of rats, this 600-year-old temple is dedicated to Karni Mata, an incarnation of Goddess Durga. Situated at around 30 Km from Bikaner, Karni Mata Temple dates back to the15th century. It is said that Goddess Durga inhabits the place where the temple stands today. Built of marble, you can see a pair of the silver door before the main shrine of the goddess. These solid silver doors were donated by Maharaja Gaj Singh, on his visit to this temple. In the main shrine, you can see the idol of Karni Mata holding Trishul (trident) in one of her hands and crown on her head. There are around 20,000 rats in the temple complex and are considered extremely holy as they are believed to be reincarnations of Karni Mata and her sons. Sighting of white rats (Kaba) is considered very auspicious and is the sign of prosperity and goodness.
