Jwala Devi Temple, Dharamshala Overview

Legends speak of a time when evil spirits landed the mountains and harassed the Gods. The gods decided to vanish them, directed by Lord Shiva. All the powers of the different Gods were focused and a huge flame rose from the base of the Earth.

From the flame, a girl took birth, now known to be Sita or Parvati. Sati's tongue fell at Jwalaji from about 610 meters above the sea level and the goddess is manifest as tiny flame that burns flawless blue through fissures in the age-old rock. Even the Pandavas are regarded to have visited this sacred place.
