Once, Mahārāja Nanda, Yaśodā-devī, Kṛṣṇa, Baladeva and other gopas came to Ambikāvana on pilgrimage. They bathed in the sacred water of the Sarasvatī River, worshipped Paśupati (Gokarṇa Mahādeva) and stayed overnight. That night, a huge python caught Nanda Bābā and slowly began to swallow him. Everyone tried to save him, but to no avail. Nanda Bābā cried out to Kṛṣṇa in great distress, and something wonderful took place – Kṛṣṇa touched the python with His foot, and he at once gave up his huge snake body and assumed the form of a beautiful Vidhyādhara. The Vidyādhara stood up and paid his respect to Śrī Kṛṣṇa. On Kṛṣṇa’s inquiry, he revealed his identity. “I was a Vidyādhara named Sudarśana,” he said. “Once, while flying in an airplane, I saw some deformed sages in the lineage of Aṅgīrā Muni and made fun of them. They cursed me to become a snake. Today that curse has proved to be a benediction, because the touch of Your lotus feet has not only freed me from the curse, but has also made my life successful.” This place is famous as Mahāvidyā-devī.Along the parikramā path after this holy place comes Sarasvatī-kuṇḍa, Cāmuṇḍā-devī and Rajaka-badha-tīlā.Excerpt from the book Sri Vraja-mandal Parikrama by Srila Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami Maharaja

On the day of Vijayadashami, Ravana goes to slaughter Lila after worship and worship in the form of Rama Laxman.Mathura. Mathura, the city of Lord Krishna has temples in all four directions. Among them is a temple of Mahavidya Devi. Situated on a mountain high hill near the huge Ramlila ground in the west direction, this magnificent temple is one of the 52 Shaktipeeths. Which is recognized from the beginning. Mahavidya Devi is also called Jeevadayini.Temple Sewayt gumbo Chaturvedi said that Srimad Bhagavad Gita, Garg was prevalent power worship Ddhapr age as mentioned in the Code, Bhrigu Samhita and goddess mythology by. This Mahavidya Devi was the total goddess of Nand Baba. Here Shri Krishna was shaved. On the day of Vijayadashami, Ravana goes to slaughter Leela after worship and worship in the form of Rama Lakshmana. It is said that the present-day temple was established by the Marathas. The statue of Goddess was renovated in 1907 by the tantric Sheelachandra.This story is popularThe area where this temple is built is described in the Puranas as Ambika Forest. Hence it is also known as Ambika Devi. It is said that Krishna, Baldev, Nand, Yashoda Devi and other Gopas were present in the Ambika forest to commemorate the Devayatra. Bathing in the waters of the holy Saraswati and worshiped Pashupati Gokarna Mahadev there. Stayed there at night with everyone. On the same night, a huge dragon gripped Nand Baba and started swallowing them, and everyone tried to save them but they all failed. At that time Nand Baba called Krishna. As soon as Krishna touched him with his feet, the dragon gave up his huge serpent body and stood as a beautiful Vidyadhara and bowed to Sri Krishna. When asked by Shri Krishna, he told me that first I was a Vidyadhar named Sudarshan. I was once ridiculed by seeing Kurup Rishis named Agirus while wandering from the plane. With which they gave me the curse to have a snake vagina. Today the curse proved to be a boon for me. I became not only cursed by the touch of your lotus feet, but also the ultimate gratitude.
Jai shree mahavidya devi ji
