MATA VAISHNODEVI MANDIR The Goddess of Trikuta parvat

After the asura samhara, she made this dark cave her permanent home. And lived ever after carefree, enjoying the divine serenity hovering over, helping the meditation uninterrupted. But decided to lifting her children by conferring boons, and relieving from the clutches of grief And lastly releasing from the cycle of births and deaths. So, one night she stood in her compassionate form, in dream, before a pious brahmin and revealed her pious intention. And also the fact of her taking seat in Trikut Parvat. The devout brahmin saw then in a flash three rock cut images of the Goddesses, Kali, Lakshmi, and Saraswathi on the walls of a cave. He determined forthwith to locate that cave, whose walls are embossed with the images taking his daughter with him. They wandered days and nights, non-stop peering at the walls of every cave. Their long indefatigable search at last took them to an area untread by humans so far. When continued till the end of a slope, they found suddenly a brilliant light infront-an unusual radiance at that place, and at that hour, miraculously at it. They proceeded in that direction like the three Wiseman of East journeying to Bethelham at the birth of Jesus, the compassionate. Moreover, they found behind diem terrifying darkness threatening to swallow them at once en masse, if retreat made. Their onward march ended inside a cave.
