Religious Significance

The temple has a very significant history. It is said that, in the year 1900, a woman called Ramdai Devi along with her daughter Yashoda came to stay in Jamshedpur from Pratapgarh, Uttar Pradesh. Jamshedpur was known as Sakchi during that period. She along with her daughter started staying in a small hut at the bottom of the hill. One night Ramdai Devi saw a dream in which the goddess appeared in front of her, and told her that at the top of the hill, is a stone idol that Ramdai must worship daily. The next morning as soon as the sunrise, Ramdai climbed up the hill and was amazed to find a stone under a tree, in which two eyes were carved. Ramdai was astonished to see her dream come true and from that day onwards she started worshipping the idol and later constructed a temple. The news got spread among the locals and people started visiting the temple in large numbers. It is also said that Ramdai was gifted with a special power by the goddess as she could say the fortune of the devotees only by looking at them. After Ramdai, the temple is being managed by the women members of her family and also has an idol of Ramdai installed. It is still believed by the locals that the goddess appears in their dream whenever they face any problems or struggle in their lives. So this was the story of Golpahari Mata Temple.
