The Goddess “Mhalasa Devi Temple” of Village Talvel, District-Jalgaon, Maharashtra was established in April 2001. A group of motivated individuals in 1994, felt the need for a place of worship and practice of Sanatana dharma in their adopted land. They had already started meeting in small groups at different homes to conduct the commonly performed pujas and festivals. They came together and established a non-profit corporation called Shree Mhalasa Devi Mandir Sansthan.

The mission of Shree Mhalasa Devi Mandir Sansthan is to pass on an everlasting place of worship for future generations to understand Hinduism and Sanathan Dharma. This Temple of Goddess will promote religious, moral, and Spiritual growth for children and adults based on Hindu  by celebrating Hindu traditions and preserving Indian Culture. It is the moral duty of each and every devotee to participate and promote the mission of our Temple. Be generous and donate.

Mahalsa is a Hindu goddess. She is venerated in two distinct traditions. As an independent goddess, she is considered as a form of Mohini, the female avatar of the god Vishnu and is called Mahalasa Narayani.

Mahalsa is also worshipped as the consort of the folk god Khandoba, a form of the god Shiva. In this tradition, she is associated with Parvati, Shiva’s wife as well as Mohini. It is also believed that she is incarnation of Parvati with the beauty of Mohini as per Lord Shiva’s wish.
