CHINTPURNI

We begin our pilgrimage to these places with Chintpurni, where the temple is located 3 Km. from Bharwain on the Hoshiarpur Dharamsala road on a ridge top of the Solashinri range. A stone idon (pindi) represents the goddess. According to the legend, hundreds of year ago a bhahmin, maldas, saw in a dream a young girl with a lion listening to devotional music under a banyan tree. She told him that she was goddess Durga (Bhagwati), Chhinmastika the headless from in which she killed Nishumukh and wanting to stay there, she asked him to build a temple for her and become her priest. She also told him that anybody who worshipped her with a pure heart would be relieved of all worries hence the name Chintpurni. The main fair at the temple is held during the days of Shuklapaksh of Shavan (August), when thousands of people visit this place
