51 Shaktipeeth
51
Shakti Peeth is the only Hindu Pilgrimage where all the Shakti Peethas are
worshipped together. The essence of devotion to Shakti is quiet old. At present
there are 41 Shaktipeethas in India, 4 in Bangladesh, 3 in Nepal and 1 each in
Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Tibet. There are traditionally 51 Shaktipeethas. The
devotion of Shakti also reflects the cultural tradition of the SAARC nations,
i.e. India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Bhutan and
Maldives. This is an appropriate time that we should make sincere efforts to
develop cultural tourism in SAARC countries by acknowledging the importance of
Shaktipeethas and unite SAARC nations culturally by developing a "Shaktipeeth
Circuit". India has always promoted the concept of peace, tranquillity and
universal brotherhood since a very long time. This very concept may again
emphasize India’s ideology, amidst the present atmosphere of unrest and
terrorism in the world as a whole.
