This is yet another temple situated
at Morjim in Pernem Taluka, which is about 15-km from Mapusa. The temple
complex is situated around sylvan surroundings.
The Festivities
The main festival is "Kalash Utsava" which is celebrated every
three, five, seven or nine years. Duration of the festival is nearly a
month, beginning from "Phalgun Shudha Panchami". The concluding 7
days is a big cultural and religious affair when people not only from Goa,
but also from Sindhudurga in Maharashtra and Karwar in Karnataka assemble in
large numbers. Other festivals that are celebrated at this temple site are
Gudi Padva, Dussehra, Zatra, "Divjam" and "Ghode Mundim".
