Limited EditionNote:
Javala Mukhi is a town in the Kangra District state of Himachel Pradesh. Sati’s tongue is believed to have fallen at Jawala Mukhi and the goddess is manifest as tiny flames that burn a flawless blue through fissures in the rock. It was visited by Ranjit Singh in 1815 where he plated the gold domes of the temple in honour of the Javalamukhi, the Flaming Face Goddess. This Inscription like many shows the respect Ranjit Singh had for all cultures and the inclusiveness of his rule.
