In India, a country known for its multitude of temples dedicated to various deities, there is a unique temple that stands out from the rest. Located in Kungher village of Patan, the Chudel Mata temple is devoted to the worship of the 'chudel' or witch. Unlike other temples, this particular shrine also serves as the high court for the village, as the local people seek justice from the witch goddess.

In Kungher, the chudel is revered as the Adyashakti of Kaliyug, representing the first Shakti or Mahashakti manifested in the form of a living flame, known as Jyoti. The villagers have deep faith in the temple and firmly believe that all their problems can be resolved within its sacred walls. Every Sunday and Tuesday, hundreds of devotees flock to the temple to seek blessings and solace, praying for solutions to their health, personal, professional, legal, financial, or any other worldly issues.

According to local folk tales, the spirit of Chudel Mata was worshipped as a goddess and was initially enshrined under a Varakhadi, a tree where good spirits are believed to reside. This ritual was performed by Shri Raichanddas Patel using only five bricks, approximately 250 years ago. Over time, the faith of the people grew as they attributed the recovery of their lost articles to the blessings of Shree Chudel Mata. As the belief spread throughout the region and the number of devotees increased, a permanent flame was lit and installed by the village elders, symbolizing the enduring presence of the deity.

Visiting the Chudel Mata temple offers a unique cultural and religious experience, allowing travelers to witness the deep-rooted beliefs and traditions of the local community. The atmosphere is filled with devotion and faith as devotees come together to seek guidance and resolution for their troubles. The temple stands as a testament to the rich tapestry of religious diversity in India, where even the worship of a witch goddess finds its place among the thousands of temples devoted to different deities.
