Money Saving Tips - Devi Darshan Tour Package
1. for Devi Darshan in Himachal Travel to Una Himachal or Amb Andora By Train ( Benefit - Huge Taxi Cost Saving upto Rs 4000/- from Chandigarh or Rs 9000/- from Delhi).
2. Eat only at Designated Areas like Bombay Picnic Spot before Chintpurni or Ashoka Dhaba-Kangra Here food is hygienic and Cheap. Even Kids can eat here due to best quality offered.
3. Take Prasad in Mata Chintpurni & Jwalaji from the Nearest Shop to Temple gate, Otherwise you will have tough time carrying prasad all the way.
4. Never get emotional on Kumaris in Chintpurni ( Kanchaks, Young Girls) in Chintpurni, They will encircle you and force you to pay money/gifts, They will say "Mata rani ke darbar mein aaye ho, to Kumari ko paisaa nahin doge ( You have come to Goddess House and yes you ignore kumaris", but the catch it that they will try to extract as much as money from you. We have seen that if you give to one group of girls, another will encircle you and force you to pay. The Best way is to just be tough and move on.
5. Negotiate the Price first with Barber in Chintpurni for Mundan ceremony or Poojan, negotaite also with lady who washes the baby. The key is to negotiate with all.
6. Cover Naina Devi Ji On your return, this way you can relax and see Picturesque Bhakhra Nangal Dam and enjoy great food at Chief Restaurant on Nangal dam.
7. In Chintpurni, Take Prasad from nearest shop to the temple main gate.Otherwise lines get very long and you will end up carrying prasad all along
8. Avoid Eye Contact with Beggers, Young Girls ( Kumaris) specially in Chintpurni. There is a whole gang out there trying to rip you off.

Vaishnavi Temple
The Origin of Vaishno Devi is as mysterious as it is about several other Shrines from the past era. That is why it still remains difficult to find out exact date from when the Holy Shrine pilgrimage might begin. In fact a geological investigation and research of the Holy Cave has calculated that approximately one million years is the time frame since when pilgrimage continues. Vedic History of Vaishno Devi explains that there was no presence of female worshippers in the past while Rigveda found their presence in the mountain Trikuta. It especially focuses upon Shakti worship practice that continues since Puranic era.
Jwalamukhi Temple History
Jwalamukhi Temple recognized as one of the 51 Shaktipeeths of India, Jwalamukhi's Devi Temple, tended by the followers of Goraknath, is set against a cliff. The picturesque temple, built against a wooded spur, in the Indo-Sikh style, has a dome that was gilded by Mughal Emperor Akbar.

Maa shakti
In Hinduism, Shakti also spelled as Sakthi, meaning "power" or "empowerment" is the primordial cosmic energy and represents the dynamic forces that are thought to move through the entire universe. Shakti is the concept or personification of divine feminine creative power, sometimes referred to as 'The Great Divine Mother' in Hinduism. As the mother she is known as Adi Parashakti or Adishakti. On the earthly plane, Shakti most actively manifests through female embodiment and creativity/fertility, though it is also present in males in its potential, unmanifest form.Hindus believe that Shakti is both responsible for creation and the agent of all change. Shakti is cosmic existence as well as liberation, its most significant form being the Kundalini Shakti, a mysterious psychospiritual force.

Highest dam in india
The Bhakra-Nangal multipurpose dams were among the earliest river valley development schemes undertaken by India after independence though the project had been conceived long before India became a free nation. The agreement for this project had been signed by the then Punjab Revenue Minister, Sir Chhotu Ram on January 8, 1945 with Raja of Bilaspur. Preliminary works commenced in 1946. Construction of the dam started in 1948, Jawaharlal Nehru poured the first bucket of concrete into the foundations of Bhakra on 18 November 1955 [3] and the dam was completed by the end of 1963. Successive stages were completed by the early 1970s. Initially, the construction of the dam was started by Sir Louis Dane, the Lieutenant Governor of Punjab. But the project got delayed and was restarted soon after independence under the chief architect Rai Bahadur Kunwar Sen Gupta. In October 1963 at the ceremony to mark the dedication of the Bhakra–Nangal project to the nation, Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru said, "This dam has been built with the unrelenting toil of man for the benefit of mankind and therefore is worthy of worship. May you call it a Temple or a Gurdwara or a Mosque, it inspires our admiration and reverence". On 22 October 2013, the Government of India approved the release of a commemorative stamp to mark the 50th anniversary of the Bhakra Dam.
