Hingalaj Puja 2017 date – Goddess Hinglaj Mata Jayanti in 2017

Goddess Hingalaj Mata is a manifestation of Goddess Shakti and she takes her name from the mountain cave Hinglaj on the Makran coast in the Lyari District of Balochistan in Pakistan. Hingalaj Mata Puja date in 2017 is March 26. Many people from India travel to Hingalaj Temple to offer pujas during her Jayanti period.

Legend has it that Vishnu cut the body of Goddess Sati – to stop Shiva’s lament after Sati’s death – part of her head fell at Hingalaj or Hingula. Thus this is one among the 51 Shaktipeeths.

Hingalaj Mata gave darshan to her devotees on the 13th day of the Krishna Paksha of Chaitra Month as per traditional calendar followed in North India.
