from Kataragama to Kailasa - at Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu
One of the 52 Shakti Peethams, and one of the Durga Alayas. Very significant for the pilgrim tracing the path of Shiva...
Devi is here as Kanya Kumari, steadfast in her intention to be a maiden, after Shiva missed the auspicious moment of the wedding when he started from Suchindram. That is a beautiful story. The temple with the golden covering is the one dedicated to Kanya Kumari and the taller one is at Suchindram.
