" A small Shrine half protrudes from the stone platform on the river bank. when it emerges fully the Goddess inside will escape and evil period of Kalyug and on the earth". Pls explain this statement. This is from Kathmandu from class 9 beehive..

Dear student,

A shrine is a holy or sacred place dedicated to a specific deity. A shrine associated with a goddess is seen jutting out of a level surface at Pashupatinath. People believe that when the shrine appears fully (as currently only a part of it can be seen), the goddess will be able to escape from it. That incident will mark the end of Kaliyug which is the era when evil has flourished on earth.

Regards

At Pashupatinath, there is a small shrine that protrudes from the stone platform on the river bank of Bagmati. It is believed that when the shrine will emerge fully, the goddess inside it will escape. The evil period of Kaliyug on earth will then end.
