Brief History of the Temple
श्री योगशांतदुर्गा ट्रस्ट
Shree Yogashanthadurga Mantra Devate & Koragajja Sanidhya
I am one of thousands devotees, with deep faith and emotion, I wish to share how Maa Durga (kadal da appe) herself chose Ratnagiri as the sacred ground for her presence and how our beloved Guruji Shri Prashant Shetty was guided there through divine visions and dreams.
For years, Guruji used to see a sacred stone of Maa Durga in his dreams and even in his waking state. He would often describe to his family the exact place, the surroundings, and the divine glow of that stone but nobody believed him.
What many didn’t know was that Guruji was being guided by Mantra Devta and Khoragajja, two of the most revered deities of Tulu Nadu. These divine forces continued to appear in his visions, showing him the path and urging him to reach that sacred spot where Adi Shakti herself awaited.
Finally, listening to their divine call, Guruji traveled to Ratnagiri — and there, just as he had seen, he found the very stone from his visions. When he touched it, a powerful spiritual energy surrounded him and it became clear that this was none other than Maa Adi Shakti Durga herself.

Endless Miracles and Maa’s Grace
Since that discovery, countless miracles have been witnessed by devotees.
At first, prayers were performed in a small 1-BHK rented home, then moved to a 2-BHK, and today we gather in a 4-BHK rented house but even this space is no longer enough.Devotees from all walks of life come here seeking Maa’s blessings and they return with hope, peace, and healing.
Those suffering from black magic, graha doshas, depression, or hopelessness have found new life here. Many who were struggling financially have received jobs and prosperity some even got unexpected opportunities abroad.
Even those on the verge of giving up have seen overnight miracles through Maa’s blessings.
The Miracle of the Falling Flowers
One of the most sacred and witnessed miracles here is the flower falling from the Devi’s murti. Whenever Guruji prays or asks Maa for a sign, flowers fall from the idol not once or twice, but multiple times a day whenever guruji asks. This divine act has been witnessed and recorded by countless devotees it fills the atmosphere with tears, joy, and faith
Maa’s Manifestation Through Guruji
During special poojas which is known as Darshana (2–3 times a month), we have seen the Devi enter Guruji’s body. In those sacred moments, Maa Durga herself speaks through him, guiding and healing devotees by revealing their problems and giving them solutions.
Every word, every touch, and every blessing in those moments has changed lives and we have video evidence of many such divine incidents.
Now Maa’s Wish — To Build Her Own Temple
Maa’s presence has outgrown the rented space. The divine energy and the number of devotees have increased beyond imagination.
It is now Maa’s own wish that we build a permanent temple at the exact place in Ratnagiri where she revealed herself.
This temple will be the home of Adi Shakti — Durga, Lakshmi, Saraswati, Mantra Devta and Koragajja where generations to come will experience her power, love, and miracles.
