Chausath Yogini Temple, Morena,
Madhya Pradesh
Chausath Yogini Temple is a
Hindu Temple dedicated to 64 Yoginis, located in Mitaoli Village Morena
district in the Indian state of Madhya
Pradesh. The Temple is also known as Ekattarso Mahadeva Temple.
It is one of the few such Yogini temples in the country which is in
a good condition. The temple is formed by a circular wall with 64 chambers and
an open mandapa
in the centre, separated by a courtyard which is circular in shape, where Shiva is
deified. It is believed that the Parliament House, known as Sansad Bhavan,
built in Delhi in the 1920s, has been patterned on the lines of this
circular-shaped Chausath Yogini Temple. The temple has been declared an
ancient historical
monument by the Archaeological Survey of India.
