Situated on the bank of river Prachi, this temple is famous for Goddess Mangala. Goddess Mangala is the presiding deity of Kakatpur and is worshipped in this temple.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Folklore<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There is a famous story behind the evolution of the name of the deity as &#8216;Kakatpur&#8217; Mangala and believed by the local people. Goddess Managla kept herself hidden under the deep water of river Prachi. Once a boatman was sailing his boat across river Prachi. At that time, the river was outpouring and flooded so he was unable to sail his boat to the middle of the river. He spent whole day and night but not able to sail his boat and during early morning, before the dawn,\u00a0Goddess Mangala came in his dream and asked him to recover her from the water and to establish her in nearby Mangalapur village. The boatman dived into the water and able to find the deity from the bed of the river. Then as per the direction of the Goddess he established the figure of the deity in a temple in Mangalapur village. After this the boatman saw a black crow dived into the water and did not come out of the water for hours and days, the crow detained inside the water of river Prachi exactly in the same place from where he recovered the figure of Goddess Mangala. In local Odia language &#8216;Crow&#8217; means &#8216;Kaka&#8217; and &#8216;Detained&#8217; means &#8216;Atka&#8217;. So by combining the two words it becomes &#8216;Kaka-Atka&#8217;, so during the course of time the Mangalapur village is known as &#8216;Kakat&#8217; (Kaka-Atka) pur and the Goddess is known as KakatpurMangala.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Relation With Jagannath Temple<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>KakatpurMangala temple has a close relation with\u00a0Lord Jagannath temple of Puri during the\u00a0Navakalebara(Renovation of the\u00a0Deities) festival. Old deities are buried under earth at the dedicated place inside\u00a0Jagannath templeand new idols are created for Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Goddess Subhadra. The new idols are created from a sacred wood known as &#8216;Daru Brahma\u2019 in local language. Nobody knows from where to find the sacred wood to create the new idols, so as per the tradition the priests of Lord Jagannath temple come to KakatpurMangala to pray the Goddess to help them to find the sacred wood. The priests sleep in front of the Goddess with their face down and then Goddess Mangala come in their dream and tell the exact location of the three sacred trees for the three deities. This custom has been performed from years together without any deviation. This shows the power and energy of Goddess Mangala and her blessings for her devotees.<\/p>\n<p>For more such interesting facts and information about Puri, stay tuned with <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hotelholidayresort.com\">www.hotelholidayresort.com<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kakatpur is a small village in Puri District and is situated at a distance of 50 kms from\u00a0Puri, on the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":248,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,5,6,8,9,10,11,13,14,15,16,17,18,19],"tags":[65,81,87,92,98,99,110,116,118,119,140,151,155,161,171,194],"class_list":["post-247","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-beach","category-blog","category-cottages","category-holidays","category-honeymoon","category-hotel","category-jagannath","category-puri","category-resort","category-restaurant","category-seafood","category-spa","category-travel","category-wedding","tag-goddess-mangala","tag-hotel-in-puri","tag-jagannath","tag-jagannath-temple","tag-kakatpur","tag-kakatpur-mangala","tag-lord-jagannath","tag-luxury-hotels-in-puri","tag-mangala","tag-mangala-temple","tag-party-hotel-in-puri","tag-puri","tag-puri-beach-resort","tag-puri-hotel-booking","tag-puri-resort-booking","tag-restaurant-in-puri"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Kakatpur - The Abode of Goddess Kakatpur Mangala | Puri Holiday Resort<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Kakatpur is a small village in Puri District and is situated at a distance of 50 kms from Puri, on the Puri-Astaranga road.
