Top Ten Tantra Temples

Bhubaneswar, Orissa

In Bhubaneswar, the 8th-century Vaital temple has a reputation of being a powerful tantrik center. Inside the temple stands the mighty Chamunda (Kali), wearing a necklace of skulls with a corpse at her feet. Tantriks find the dimly lit interior of the temple an ideal place for absorbing age-old currents of power that emanate from this spot.

(With inputs from Tantrik Master Shri Aghorinath Ji.)
