The history of Kamakhya Mandir dates back to the 7th century. It was established by King Bhagadatta Shashanka. It has been mentioned in Kalika Purana and Rudrayamala Tantra as a famous pilgrimage site dedicated to Shakti worship.
The Kamakhya Temple is dedicated to Goddess Kamakhya who is highly revered in Hinduism, especially in the Shakti sect. She is considered to represent the divine feminine energy and is widely worshipped as the ultimate source of creation and power. She symbolizes feminity, fertility and the cycle of life, which elevates the prominence of Kamakhya temple tourism. Devotees commonly visit the temple to seek the blessings of the Goddess for fertility, prosperity and spiritual awakening.
Kamakhya temple darshan is free for all devotees. However, if you want Kamakhya temple tickets for VIP darshan, then you need to book them from the temple counter itself.
Experience the Best of Kamakhya Pilgrimage
Visit the Kamakhya Temple: At the entrance of the Kamakhya Devi Temple, you will be greeted with exquisitely carved motifs adorned with vibrant floral decorations, which reflect the temple’s harmonious blend of natural beauty and artistic craftsmanship. The Kamakhya temple is dedicated to multiple forms of Maa Shakti, namely Chinnamasta, Bagalamukhi, Tara, Bhuvaneshvari, Sundari, and Tripura. The middle chamber of the temple features inscriptions and images of Nara-Narayana. The most sacred shrine of the temple lies in its third chamber, where you would find a yoni-like cleft in the bedrock in the form of a cave. The temple also has a natural spring that flows through the cleft. Kamakhya Mandir tour would give you the opportunity to seek blessings of the Goddess that embodies fertility and rebirth and is a representation of Shakti or feminine energy.
Attend the Ambubachi Mela: This is a huge annual celebration that attracts thousands of sadhus, devotees and spiritual seekers around India, and therefore would be a great time to plan your Kamakhya pilgrimage tour. Four days in June mark the ritual menstrual cycle of the goddess, which represents renewal and rebirth. The doors of the temple stay shut during this sacred time, symbolizing purification and cycle of rebirth, and reopen with grand festivities on the fourth day. Devotees come together to take part in diverse rituals and offer communal prayers while celebrating life and womanhood.
Witness Aarti and Puja Rituals: Your Kamakhya Mandir tour will not be complete without witnessing an aarti here, which is filled with heartfelt hymns and prayers dedicated to Goddess Kamakhya. The vibrant chants, the soothing fragrance of incense, and the glow of flickering oil lamps create an ambience of pure divinity. It gives you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the spiritual atmosphere and strengthen your connection to the divine.
Best Time to Visit Kamakhya Temple
The winter months would be a good time to plan a trip to the Kamakhya Devi Temple owing to the pleasant weather, low humidity and clear skies. The weather in the months from October to February stays comfortable enough for participating in religious ceremonies and even going on sightseeing nearby. The most auspicious time to visit the temple, however, would be during the Ambubachi Mela. This festival typically takes place in the month of June (Ahaar) according to the Assamese calendar.
