About Ramachandi Temple

Ramachandi Temple, is on a wonderful spot on the banks of the Kusabhadra Stream where it streams into the Inlet of Bengal. It is just 5 km far from Konark in the Puri Region of Orissa. Goddess Ramachandi, the god of Konark is thought by some to be the directing god of this temple, while others thought it to be the temple of Mayadevi, spouse of Surya (Sun God). 

A legend in regards to the god is mainstream among local people. Kalapahad, the renegade Hindu Brahmin youth who got changed over to Islam, pledged to obliterate every one of the temples of Hindu love amid the seventeenth century. In the wake of wrecking the Sun temple, Kalapahad moved toward Ramachandi temple to pulverize it. At that point Goddess Ramachandi dressed as a Maluni (a house keeper worker) requested that Kalapahad hold up at the entryway till she brings water from the stream for the Goddess. Kalapahad restlessly sat tight for quite a while to get some chilly water. When it was past the point of no return and the Maluni did not return he was depleted and entered inside the temple and found the honored position purge. At that point he thought the Maluni brought away the divinity with her and with outrage he took after the Maluni. When he achieved the bank of the Kushabhadra waterway he found the goddess Ramachandi skimming amidst the stream. Around then the stream was overflowing, so he returned without having the capacity to achieve the center of the waterway. At that point Goddess Ramachandi came in dream of a Panda (minister) and instructed him to assemble a temple on the bank of the Kushabhadra waterway. This place is currently known as Ramachandi. During the time numerous guests come here to get the gift of Goddess Ramachandi and to appreciate the beautiful magnificence of waterway Kushabhadra and Sound of Bengal. 

Presently the temple has crumpled leaving stays of its broken dividers and the unfilled position of royalty. There is no chronicled proof to finish up about its directing god.
