The temple is one of the 51 Shakti Peeths of the Indian subcontinent and is dedicated to Goddess Sati, who is thought to have self-manifested on a rock on the side of a mountain surrounded by seven peaks.

According to Hindu mythology, body parts of Sati had separated from her dead body and fallen at different locations as Shiva danced his Tandava with her body carried on his back. These places became sacred and became known as Shakti Peeths.
