Tuljapur is a famous pilgrimage of Devi Bhavani (popularly called as Tulja Bhavani).
Legend: According to one legend during Krita Yuga there was a brahmin
named Kardam who was wellversed in the Vedas. He had a devoted wife
named Anubhuti. However as fate had it, Kardam passed away plunging
Anubhuti in a sea of grief. She decided to perform Sati and immolate herself
but an ethereal voice prevented her and asked her to take care of her small
son. Anubhuti discharged her duties and brought up the son as a self
dependent young man. Then she severed the ties of the world and as a
sanyasa went to perform penance in Mount Meru. One day the demon king
Kukoor saw her and became charmed by her beauty. He told her to marry
him but when rebuffed by Anubhuti started using his force to take her away.
Anubhuti prayed to the Goddess in that distress. The Goddess appeared
before her and a terrific battle ensued with the demon king. Finally Devi
Bhavani killed the demon. She then told Anubhuti to ask for a boon. Anubhuti
asked the boon that she should be able to see and worship Her whenever she desired. Granting
the boon the Devi made Her abode at Yamunachala (in the Sahyadri mountains). When Sri
Rama was searching for Devi Sita, Goddess Bhavani also blessed Him.
Tuljapur is located in the Osmanabad district of Maharashtra.
