Unique Temple in Pehowa

Unique Temple in Pehowa Pehowa is 26 Km away from Kurukshetra. The town of Pehowa was named after the famous King "Prithu". Many "Hindus" go to the holy land of Pehowa to worship their dead ancestors and offer "Pind Daan" in order to release the soul from the cycle of birth and re- birth. The town of "Pehowa" is blessed with a famous and unique temple of Lord Kartikkya. This is one of the unique temples in the world. Women are not allowed to enter this temple. When Lord Shiva and Mata Parvati told both children to perform “Trilok parikarma” then Kartikkya immediately set off on his vehicle, the peacock while Ganesha with his vehicle Mooshika (mouse) went around the parents and said that our parents are the whole world to us. So by going around them once, I have gone around the world. When Kartikkya reached back and saw that Ganesha already won, then he had doubt that his mother helped Ganesha. So he removed all his skin and gave it to Mata Parvati and said that skin comes from mother while bones come from father. After giving up his skin he came to Pehowa temple and said that no women can enter in this temple - if any woman does, she will die. .
