In the sacred town of Puri, near Atharanala, a divine abode is set to grace the spiritual landscape – the Temple of "Shree Maa Nila Saraswati." Unlike any other temple in Puri, even within the revered Jagannath Temple, this upcoming sanctuary holds special significance as it pays homage to Maa Nila Saraswati, also known in Vedic Sastra Purana as Maa "Matangi" and "Maa Ugratara."
Maa Shree Shree Nila Saraswati is envisioned as the twin companion of Lord Jagannath, embodying the essence of Nila Purusa and the white form of Maa Saraswati, known as Nila Saraswati. This divine presence, often likened to Lord Jagannath himself, is considered the epitome of love transcending Tantra and Mantra, symbolizing the "Mokhya Dayini Devi" – the bestower of liberation.
The envisioned temple, aptly named "The Mokhya Dwar Shree Shree Nilasaraswati Ashram," is believed to be a gateway to spiritual freedom. Devotees flocking to this sacred site are said to find solace and healing, with Maa Nila Saraswati offering relief from diseases and adversaries. The transformative power of a visit to this ashram is said to make devotees' enemies vanish and students shine with brilliance.
Since 2003, Maa Nila Saraswati has been venerated at the "Guru Prabaha Ranjan Kabi's Parnakutira Ashram" near Atharnala.She is revered as Lord Jagannath. Now, as the temple is set to be constructed, devotees are earnestly urged to contribute, both financially and willingly, to help materialize this divine haven that promises freedom from sorrow and an indescribable power emanating from the divine Maa Nila Saraswati.
