The Divine Origin
The Divine Origin
Once upon a time, six children happened to witness a sacred offering (Bali) performed in a remote area. Deeply intrigued by what they had seen, the children later began to imitate the ritual as a form of play, choosing to do so before a distinct and auspicious rock formation.
Unknowingly, their innocent act stirred divine energies associated with the sacred site. Within a year, several members of their families fell gravely ill. Seeking answers, the families turned to a revered darshana (spiritual consultation), where it was revealed that the event from a year ago had awakened the spiritual presence tied to that auspicious rock. The divine energy, it was said, was requesting a proper Bali (ritual offering) in accordance with tradition and respect.
Recognizing the sacredness of the place, the community responded with reverence. A temple was then consecrated at that very site, honoring the divine will and establishing a space for worship, where devotees could offer prayers and receive blessings.
