Samlasan Devi Temple, Samlotha
Samlasan Devi Temple is a temple dedicated to the Goddess Durga, atop a hill at village Samlotha some 10 KM from the Morni town. The hill offers a commanding view of the plains of Raipur Rani and the erstwhile Kotaha estate and the ruins of the forts of the Meers at Kotaha and Masoompur.
As per the folklore, Goddess Durga after slaying the demon brothers Shumbh and Nishumbh in a fierce battle stopped at Samlotha for rest. She assumed an asana (sitting posture) on the lotus (kamal) flowers in a pond and was thus called the ‘Kamalasan’ Devi, literally the goddess who sat on the lotus flowers. Over time the name got distorted to ‘Samlasan’ Devi. She is also referred to as ‘Samlothe Vali’, belonging to Samlotha. The ubiquitous Pandav princes came upon the holy spot during their exile and built the original ancient temple at the site in deference to the Goddess. As the devotees experienced great difficulties in accessing the temple, the Goddess sat in a palanquin (a sedan chair lifted by four bearers) and descended to the Chhota Tirlokpur village in the foothills of Morni where she appeared in statue (moorti) form in the dream of the Raja of Raipur Rani. The Raja got a second temple constructed at the spot where the ‘moorti’ was discovered. It is believed by the devout that the Goddess grants any wish made by praying at her feet at Samlotha temple. A two-day annual fair is held at Samlotha (during Chaitra Navratri) that is attended by thousands of devotees from the surrounding villages and towns.
