      Kartik Swami Temple

 

The 15th century, this place was famous as both Hardwar and Haridwar. According to the story of the King Daksha and his religious sacrifice in the ‘Skanda Purana’, the navel of the destroyed body of Goddess Sati fell here. As a result, a council of the Goddess Sati came up in the area. Hence, Haridwar geographically developed as a natural area of the goddess. In recent times, if one assumes the Maya temple to be the main point of a triangle, then Chandi Devi and Mansa Devi would be the other two points of the triangle. If one joins these three points, an inverted triangle is formed. Followers of the Goddess agree that the inverted triangle represents Shakti (Goddess Sati or power) and the upright triangle represents Lord Shiva.
