Fullara

Fullara temple

Fullara is a temple-town in India near Labhpur. Fullara is about 30 km from Santiniketan.

According to mythology, when Mahadeva danced around with Sati’s dead body cutting it to pieces, the lip fell at Fullara. There is a big pond beside the temple. According to hearsay, Hanuman collected 108 blue lotuses from the pond when Sri Ramachandra required them for the worship of goddess Durga.[1] It is considered to be one of the fifty-one shakti peethas in India.[2]
