Bindabasini Temple Pokhara | बिन्दबसिनी मन्दिर | Pokhara
The Bindhyabasini Temple (Nepali: बिन्ध्यबासिनी मन्दिर) is the oldest temple in the city of Pokhara, Nepal and is located in Ward No. 2, Miruwa.[1] It regularly attracts a large number of locals, Nepalis from across the country, and foreigners alike.[2] The main temple is devoted to the goddess Bindhyabasini, a Bhagawati who is the incarnation of Kali. There are smaller temples of goddesses Saraswati, Shiva, Hanuman, and Ganesha in the premises. The temple is situated atop a small hill and can be accessed via stone staircases on the East and North East.
The views of the Himalayas from the North of the temple are breathtaking while from the South one can see the expanse of Pokhara city.
The temple was established circa 1760s.[3] King Girvan Yuddha Bikram Shah, the then king of Nepal appointed Kahindra Padhya Poudel in June 1815 AD as temple priest replacing Harivamsha Padhya. Its stated the priest could use the Guthi Lands endowed for the temple to perform regular and ceremonial puja.[4]
Legend on the establishment of the temple
The king of Kaski, Sidddhi Narayan Shah or the king of Parbat Khadgaman Malla saw a dream about establishing a temple for goddess Bindhyabasini. He had his men go to Bindhyachal Parbat (currently in Uttar Pradesh, India) to bring back a statue of the goddess. The men when returning set camp for a night in the current location of the temple. When they woke up the next morning to resume their journey, they found they couldn't lift the statue from the ground. When informed of the situation, the king directed his people to establish the temple and hence the beginning of Bindhyabasini Temple.
