30th Dec'16:
After receiving blessings from Guru Maharaj, myself along with my parents got to visit Mukundapur temple at Kamarpukur
Kamarpukur - Mukundapur temple (Temple 222)
Address: Mukundapur Shiva temple, Kamarpukur, West Bengal - 712612
Mukundapur temple is closely related with the life of Shri Shri Thakur. Sri Ramakrishna's mother received intuition from Lord Shiva to worship in the Mukundapur temple and penance to make his child recover from madness. Ramakrishna's mother took a fast for several days and went through many painstaking sufferings seeking the blessings of Lord Shiva. Finally, a soft voice told her that her son is not suffering from madness and he behaves differently for his divine powers. We have offered our humble pranams to Lord Shiva and then visited Raghuvir temple at Kamarpukur.

Inside the premises of Shri Ramakrishna Mutt, To the left of Shri Ramakrishna's temple is the temple dedicated to Raghuvir (Sri Rama), the family deity of Sri Ramakrishna.
Three deities used to be worshiped here: a Salagram (a round stone Emblem) representing Raghuvir, a jar representing Sitala Devi, and a Rameswara Shivalinga. Shri Shri Thakur worshiped these family deities for many years. It's a greatest blessing for us too to worship these deities. Then we got to visit Jugi Shiva temple.

Inside the premises of Shri Ramakrishna Mutt, Beyond the mango tree is the Jugi's Shiva temple. Before Shri Ramakrishna was born, one day his mother Chandramani Devi was talking with her friend Dhani infront of this temple. Suddenly, she saw a divine effulgence emerge from the Shivalinga inside the temple, fill the temple, rush towards her, engulf her and enter in to her body. After this incident she felt she was pregnant with a child.
We have offered our humble prayers to the deity & then visited Durga temple.

Another small temple located nearer to Shri Ramakrishna's house,worshiped by Shri Shri Thakur and his family members. We have offered our prayers here and then visited Goddess Vishalakshi Shrine.

Address: Goddess Vishalakshi Shrine, Kamarpukur, West - Bengal - 712612
About a 20 min drive from Kamarpukur towards north is the temple of Goddess Visalakshi, a popular deity. As a young boy of 8 years, Sri Ramakrishna once went to the temple along with some women devotees. While on the way, he sang beautiful songs on the Devi, experienced a divine ecstasy and lost external consciousness. He regained consciousness only when someone repeated the Divine Mother's name in his ears.
We were most blessed to visit the temples related with the life of Shri Ramakrishna. Most memorable Holy Trip !!
