📖 Devi Bhagavata Purana, Seventh Skandha

According to the Seventh Skandha of the Devi Bhagavata Purana, when Mata Sati gave up her life at Daksha's yagna, Lord Shiva wandered in grief carrying her body. To protect creation, Lord Vishnu divided Sati's body with his Sudarshana Chakra. Wherever the parts of Sati's body fell, those places came to be known as Shakti Peethas (sacred seats of the Goddess).

According to tradition, it is said that Sati's lower lip fell at this place. The Shakti here is worshipped as Phullara and the Bhairav as Vishvesha. This place is counted among the fifty-one Shakti Peethas in the Pithanirnayas Tantra.

According to the Devi Bhagavata Purana, Sati's lower lip fell here — the Shakti Phullara and Bhairav Vishvesha reside at this place.
