(There are probably more Shakti Peetha I’ve visited, especially in childhood or without knowing / remembering about it. Like in Gujarat when I was 1-2 years old. I probably missed visiting some too like when I was in Nepal. Regardless, I’d like to visit them again and so I’m not mentioning them.)
Legend Used to Categorize the Shakti Peetha:
- 53 Shakti Peetha – Considered main across scriptures like Purana
- 21 Sam Shakti Peetha – Where there are differences on exact locations of the Shakti Peetha
