00:00Did you know that there's a temple near Asensol where clay horses come to life at night?
00:08Locals believe that the sounds of these horses galloping can still be heard in the stillness of the night?
00:15Yes friends, today we'll show you Burnpur's hidden gem, the Jai Ma Budapudi Temple.
00:30Far from the hustle and bustle of Asensol, on the tranquil banks of the Damodar river, lies a place with
00:37neither temple walls nor roof.
00:40Here, the goddess sits under the open sky.
00:43Friends, today we've come to the serene and vibrant Bhutapudi Temple located near Samdi village.
00:51Nestled in the lap of nature on the banks of the Damodar river, this place is called Matakatan or Vaidi.
00:58This temple is considered to be deeply spiritual.
01:02There's no grand building here, but rather an open platform where devotees express their faith.
01:08According to local beliefs, a form of goddess Durga is worshipped here, believed to be one of the seven sisters.
01:17In folklore, these seven sisters are associated with the safety and prosperity of the region.
01:23Regular worship is performed here, every day.
01:26The most unique feature is the horse worship ceremony.
01:29It is said that the mother goddess arrives riding a chariot drawn by horses.
01:33Therefore, devotees offer clay horses here when their wishes are fulfilled.
01:39The hundreds of horses kept in the temple courtyard are proof that every wish of the devotees is fulfilled here.
01:46The temple's courtyard is quite spacious.
01:50The lush greenery, calm rivers, and fresh air soothe everyone who visits.
01:58As peaceful and beautiful as it is during the day, it becomes even more mysterious at night.
02:06No one stays in the temple premises after sunset, because the energy here is considered very powerful and frightening.
02:18However, according to reports, solar lighting is now installed here, making the place illuminated even in the evening and looking
02:25absolutely beautiful.
02:29If you wish to visit Ayaka, please pay special attention to the temple's timings.
02:36Access is easiest from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. and from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m.
02:43First, you'll need to reach Hirapur Dharmatala Moor in Asansal.
02:47From there, take the Sham Road.
02:49This route will take you directly to this sacred temple located on the banks of the Damodar River.
02:56If you're a nature lover and want to spend some time in peace and devotion, the Buddha Buddhi Temple is
03:03the perfect destination.
03:05According to reports, it's thronged with devotees during Pash Sankranti and Itupuja.
