About the Shakta Tradition and the 51 Shaktipeethas

The Shakta tradition honours Shakti, the Divine Mother, in forms such as Maa Durga, Maa Kali and Lalita Tripurasundari, as the supreme divine power. According to sacred tradition, after Maa Sati gave up her life at Daksha's sacrifice, Lord Shiva carried Her body in grief, and Lord Vishnu used His Sudarshana Chakra to restore cosmic balance.

The places where Her body parts and ornaments are believed to have fallen became the sacred Shaktipeethas, each traditionally associated with the Goddess and Bhairava, a form of Lord Shiva. The widely revered 51 Shaktipeethas, although counted differently in various scriptures, remain sacred centres of devotion, pilgrimage and spiritual awakening across India, Bangladesh and the wider Indian subcontinent.
