About Sundha Mata Temple
Sundha Mata Temple is an ancient and historical pilgrimage site located in Bhinmal subdivision of Jalore district of Rajasthan. The temple is situated on the heights of the Aravalli range and is dedicated to Goddess Chamunda, who is worshipped here as Sundha Mata. The history of Sundha Mata Temple is about 900 years old. According to mythological belief, this place became famous as a Shaktipeeth due to the falling of the body parts of Goddess Sati. Sati's nose fell here, due to which it is also known as 'Aghateshwari'. Three important inscriptions have been found in the temple complex, which highlight the history of this region. The first inscription is of 1262 AD, which describes the victory of the Chauhans and the fall of the Parmars. The second inscription is of 1326 AD, and the third is of 1727 AD. Special fairs are organized in the temple twice a year on the occasion of Navratri. Huge crowds of devotees gather in these fairs, and various religious rituals and cultural programs are organized. Apart from this, the number of devotees in the temple remains high from the full moon to the thirteenth day of the Shukla Paksha of every month.
