Goddess Hingula is worshipped with great devotion by the people of the surrounding areas. It is located at a distance of 14 K.M from Talcher

Goddess Hingula is believed to
be the agni(fire) in the Kitchen of Lord Jagannath at Shree Mandir Puri


When Lord Siva had torn apart the body of Sati (Parbati), each of the 52 pieces that fell was known as 'Shakti Pitha'. But a piece
identified as Brahmandreya fell at Beluchistan of present Pakistan where shakti appeared in
burning fire state
In course of time Nala Raja
of Vidarva region of western India became an ardent devotee of Maa who resided in his kingdom


In Puri when the Raja decided to
start 'anna prasad' Lord
#Jagannath responding to His prayer asked him to bring Hingula to manage his kitchen. Accordingly Puri Raja
went to
#Vidarva and requested him to pray Maa to come to Puri. Nala Raja on the request of Puri Raja brought the Goddess on his wrapper in form of fire and in course of his journey reached at Gopalgarh where he took rest.

Kanappa Naiyar

He is one of the 63 #Nayanaras and a major devotee of #Shiva He is a hunter and used to offer hunted animals to #Shivlinga.

Once #Shankara decided to test this. Blood started flowing from the eyes of #Shivlinga who was worshiped by #Kannapa.Seeing that Shiva's eye was injured and the blood flowing through it did not stop, Kannappa removed his own eye with a sharp blade and placed it in the place of Shivlinga's eye.

Seeing this, Kannappa decided to take out his other eye as well.Seeing that there was no place for the other eye to see the blood flowing on the Shivlinga as both eyes were gone, he placed one of his feet in the place of the eye on the linga and began to remove his other eye as well. With this unparalleled devotion, Shankara manifested and restored both his eyes and placed him among his prominent eyes. - In the state of sculpture.
