Shakti Peethas are the places where parts of goddess Sati fell on earth. There are
total 51 Shakti Peethas out of which 4 are called as Adi Shakti Peethas. We
find all Shakti Peethas are accompanied by lord Bhairava who is one of the manifestations
of Lord Shiva. Below are the list of known Shakti Peethas and their locations.
I tried my best in gathering information from google searches, and other sources of information, if I am wrong
here and there I apologize to all readers.
In Hindu mythology maa Shakti is worshiped by all women to attain longevity for their husband and lead life with all kinds of happiness. Although it is the same body parts of goddess Sati, each Shakti peeth is worshiped with different names but all belong to goddess Parvathi.
