Uma Devi Temple, Uma Nagari, Anantnag, Jammu & Kashmir
Uma Devi Temple is also known as Brariangan. The controlling deity of the temple is Uma Bhagavati, another demonstration of Goddess Parvati. The temple was constructed by Swami Syam Anandji. Uma Devi temple incorporates 5 springs that make up the form of the celestial `Omkara`. There are two springs that merge to form a single spring. A legendary belief is that this spring signifies the spiritual union of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. A Maha Yajna is performed every year on the anniversary of Swami Sivananda in then month of Phusa. Thousands of devotees, join in to witness the Maha Aarti (a Hindu ceremony performed during a puja to pacify the deity) during the season. The relics of the Swami are still preserved at the `Dhooni Sahib`. Uma Nagari can be approached from Anantnag by road.
