Shree Trishrota Maa Bhramoree Temple at Bodaganj is a regional Shakti shrine in Jalpaiguri District, West Bengal. The temple lies within the forested and river-influenced landscape of North Bengal, near the broader Teesta drainage system. It is dedicated to Bhramari Devi and is visited by local devotees as well as pilgrims seeking the Trisrota Peetha identified in later sacred geography.

The Peetha is recorded as Trisrota, with Tirota as an alternate form. According to the tradition followed in this database, Sati’s left foot, or vama-pada, fell here. The Goddess is Bhramari, also called Amari, and the corresponding Bhairava is Ishvara, with Ambara and Amara appearing as variants. The Bodaganj shrine is a regional modern identification; textual place-names and the precise historical location vary, so the description should avoid claiming universal agreement.

Navratri and Durga Puja are the main periods of special worship. Because the temple is located in a forest-region setting, visitors should check current local access, transport and temple schedules before travelling. The shrine should not be confused with the nearby Shaleshwari Bon Durga tradition, even though both are associated with Bodaganj. Bhramari Temple’s value lies in preserving the Trisrota narrative within North Bengal’s living devotional landscape while keeping geographical and textual uncertainties transparent.

Note on the body part

Trisrota tradition associates Sati's left foot, vama-pada, with the Peetha and names Bhramari with Bhairava Ishvara, Ambara or Amara. The Bodaganj shrine is a regional identification near the Teesta river system. Textual names and the exact historical site vary, so the location needs qualification. Sources vary.

Notes

1. For the dteails of Peetha, Body parts, Devi, Bhairava we primarily used the book The Shakta Pithas by Dr. Dines Chandra Sircar (D. C. Sircar), and secondaryly used the book 108 Divya Shaktipeethas by Banwari Lal Kanchhal. 2. This Shaktipeeth is mentioned in the list of the Pithas (Mahapithas) in the Shivacharita
