(Aditya Shaw, Intern Journalist): The talk of Nyari Kashi from Trilok is unique. It is known in the world as Mahadev’s city. There are many miracle centers of power in Bhole’s Kashi. Everyone is surprised to know about them once. But after coming here, everyone gets convinced of the miracle of Goddess. One such miraculous power site is the ancient Durga Bari. The statue of 253-year-old mother Durga has not been immersed here to date. This Durga statue, about five feet high, was established by the Mukherjee family in 1767 at Durga Bari in Bengali Tola locality of Varanasi. For 9 days, the Mukherjee family worshiped the goddess with full legal practice. Devi was so pleased with the worship and reverence of the Mukherjee family that she settled here since then.
Hemant Kumar Mukherjee said that when people wanted to lift this statue on Vijayadashami for immersion of Goddess, the statue did not move from its site. Initially, 15 to 20 people tried this, later 50 to 100 came even then the idol of Devi could not be moved.
Hemant Kumar Mukherjee, a member of the Mukherjee family, said that the same night the head of the family appeared in a dream in the mother. During this, Devi told not to go to the head of the Mukherjee family. Just then, this idol of the goddess is sitting here.
Hearing the glory of the mother, devotees from far and wide come here to see the Goddess in Navratri. As such, worship of the Goddess is done every day, but in Navratri, there is special worship of the Goddess for nine days. Devotees also believe that the sight of the Goddess fulfills the wishful wishes.
Science is also surprised – Professor PK Mishra of IIT BHU said that usually, a statue made of clay, straw, and bamboo cannot last for a long time. In such a situation, how exactly this statue made of clay for 253 years can be the subject of research.
