Rani Sati Temple (राणी सती दादी मंदिर) is a temple located in Jhunjhunu, Jhunjhunu district, in the state of Rajasthan, India. It is the largest temple in India devoted to Rani Sati, a Rajasthani lady who lived sometime between the 13th and the 17th century and committed sati (self-immolation) on her husband's death. Various temples in Rajasthan and elsewhere are devoted to her worship and to commemorate her act. Rani Sati is also called Narayani Devi and referred to as Dadiji (grandmother). The story of Rani Sati Dadi Maa starts from the time of Mahabharata. The young and heroic warrior, Abhimanyu, was killed by the Kauravas on the battlefield by using unethical methods, when he was unarmed. Abhimanyu's wife Uttara was shocked and distraught to hear of her husbands death. As a Hindu wife, Uttara was devoted to her husband and, upon hearing of his death, wanted to ascend his funeral pyre and commit Sati. She stated her intention of joining her husband in death and in the hereafter. While the act of Sati is held to be meritorious in the highest degree, the elders of her family told her that Sati at this point would be sinful rather than meritorious. This was because Uttara was pregnant at this time, and a pregnant woman committing Sati is against Dharma, they said. More information...
