Science lies even before technologies. Before Vedic scriptures, what were the sources of attaining Vedic science? People in the ancient period gain knowledge from their forefathers or gurus verbally. Sanatan Dharma explained the birth of a human even before modern science and

technologies. Garud Puran is one of the written scripture along with Vishnu Puran, Ramayan, Bhagwadgita.

The pages of Garud Puran explain the biological development of an embryo into a fetus. The procedure described in the Garud Puran is detailed. It consists of every ounce of

where Lord Vishnu comes down to earth to protect Gajendra (King Elephant) from the clutches of death of a Crocodile. The story runs as follows. In one of the secluded valleys of Mount Trikota, which was surrounded by the Ocean of Milk and intersected by lakes and rivers of

various sizes and shapes, there was a beautiful garden that belonged to Varuna, the Lord of the oceans. Once a family of elephants, which inhabited the forest on the mountain, entered the garden led by their mammoth chief, Gajendra, and made it to a big lake in it to drink water

माता के 51 शक्तिपीठों में से एक ऐसा चमत्कारी शक्तिपीठ है जहां की मान्यता है की यहां स्तंभ पर दीया लगाने से हर मन्नत पूरी होती है। इस मंदिर में दीप स्तंभों की स्थापना राजा विक्रमादित्य ने करवाई थी। यदि अनुमान लगया जाए तो दीप स्तंभ 2 हजार साल से अधिक पुराने हैं।

क्योंकि राजा विक्रमादित्य का इतिहास भी करीब 2 हजार साल पुराना है। इस स्थान पर देवी सती की कोहनी गिरी थी, जिसके बाद यहां शक्तिपीठ स्थापित हो गया। मंदिर में लोगों की आकर्षण का केंद्र यहां प्रांगण में मौजूद 2 दीप स्तंभ हैं। यह स्तंभ लगभग 51 फीट ऊंचे हैं, दोनों दीप स्तंभों में मिलाकर

लगभग 1 हजार 11 दीपक हैं। कहा जाता है की इस स्तंभों पर दीप जलाना बहुत ही कठीन है।

यह अद्भुत शक्तिपीठ मध्य प्रदेश के उज्जैन जिले में हरसिद्धि मंदिर के नाम से प्रसिद्ध है। वैसे तो हर समय ही यहां भक्तों की भीड़ रहती है। लेकिन नवरात्रि के समय और खासकर यहां आश्विन नवरात्रि के अवसर पर
