About Vaishno Devi Mandir

Being a Shaktipeeth, Vaishno Devi has the immense spiritual force necessary to preserve the goddess' divine form. Maa was Born into a South Indian household. Vaishno Devi was initially known as Vaishnavi, a manifestation of Lord Vishnu. She left home very young to learn meditation and discover her spirituality.  At this point, she happens to meet Lord Ram, who informs her that she still needs to concentrate until Kaliyug, when Lord Ram will take on the form of Kalki and unite with her to become one.

Bhairon Nath attempted to divert her attention and get her to wed him while meditating. The goddess had finally had enough and killed and decapitated him. Bhairav Ghati is the name of the location where his head fell. The Goddess finally granted him forgiveness before he passed away, and she gave him the blessing that followers must seek Bhairon's darshan after receiving the Goddess' darshan.

The Goddess then took the form of a rock to meditate, and the central shrine that pilgrims visit year-round is this 5.5-foot-tall boulder with three heads. Since the Goddess observed the Navratra to pray for Lord Ram's triumph over Ravan and was blessed by him to be revered by everyone, Navratris are said to be the most auspicious time to visit. So, if you wish to visit Mata Vaishno Devi, book your tickets with us. We ensure a safe and affordable helicopter experience.
