Nagdev Temple Pauri Garhwal
"Nagdev Temple" is situated in the middle of dense forest, situated on the Kandolia-Buwakhal road, about three kilometers from Pauri bus station. Filled with natural beauty, dense oaks, burhanas and skyscraper cedar, the rays of the sun filtering through the pine trees, the slow-flowing fragrant winds provide coolness to the hearts of devotees. The cold water of the natural source near the temple seems like a lifesaving for tourists. This Nagdevta temple located in the city proves the migration of Nagvans to Garhwal in Uttarakhand. People have different opinions about the establishment of this temple of Naga Devata, but the story that emerged as a result of religious faith and belief is as follows.
Nagadevata is originally believed to be the deity of the Doval dynasty. About 11 km from Pauri town, Pauri is located on the Srinagar highway at Nadalsuyam Patti, "Dobh Village", in which the people of Dobhala caste live. It is said that about 200 years ago, a child was born in the Doval dynasty of Dobh-village, whose upper part was in human form and the lower part of waist was in the form of snake which is called Nagroop. This child was directly influenced from birth. After his birth, the child asked his father to take me to Kandi at a place near Bhairavagadhi temple in Lansdowne area. It also said that while taking me from here, do not place the kandi at any place on the road, take me down where the establishment is to be. It is said that the people of Doval dynasty, Garg gotra, took the child to Kandi and left towards Dobhi via Dobh-village, Premnagar, Chopra, Jhandhar. A little below the flag, he mistakenly placed the Kandi on the ground, after which those Ardhanageshwar children refused to touch and lift the Kandi from all the people. The god boy ordered him to dig at some distance from them. A cold stream came out after digging at the place mentioned by Devabalak. According to the order of the child, he bathed with that water and prayed that child and installed it there. Since then, this place started being called Nagdeva. That natural water source arising from the excavation is still located near the temple and Nagadevata is visible as a stone.
It is said that even today, devotees who go with tender heart and unwavering devotion give Nagdevata darshan. It is believed that the Nag Devta resides in a hole near the stone stone installed in the temple, where priests keep milk in one bowl every day and this bowl is empty after some time. According to priests and devotees, one often realizes the presence of the serpent god at this place. The priest of the temple attracted the attention of our team towards another amazing thing, mainly the pine tree is directly in shape, but the stone tree under which the stone stone is installed has gone up and has taken the shape of a spreading snake. .
A two-day bhajan-kirtan and bhandare are organized at this place in the month of June. Devotees and newly married couples keep coming to this place throughout the year with their wishes.
