Very divine and holy place. Serene atmosphere anudst green surroundings.
In the realm of Goa, where legends thrive, A temple stands, a place where souls derive, Goddess Kamakshi, revered and adored, In Shiroda's village, her presence is stored. Once in Raia, where the temple first stood, The Portuguese regime, with destruction, pursued. To save the idol from their ruthless hand, A potter and devotees took a daring stand. Across the river, they stealthily tread, With Goddess Kamakshi's idol, their hearts full of dread. Vazem and Bharbhat witnessed her grace, But safety eluded, they sought a new space. In Thal, Shiroda, the temple found its home, Where devotees gather, no longer to roam. A grand entrance gate, majestic and tall, Leads to the temple complex, enchanting all. Inside, the Sabha Mandap stands serene, A sacred hall where devotion is seen. A water tank, tranquil and pure, Reflects the divine, a sight to allure. Gan, the square chowk, hosts Prasad's delight, Where rituals unfold, in holy rite. Lord Shiva and Vishnu, their presence embraced, With Goddess Laxmi and Goddess Shanta Durga, graced. On New Moon Day, Shri Laxmi Narayana's palanquin, Parades through the temple, a sacred scene. Chaturdashi brings Shri Rayehswar's grand display, As devotees gather, their devotion at play. Navratri, a festival of fervor and cheer, Draws devotees near, from far and near. The air fills with hymns, the spirit alive, As Devi Kamakshi's blessings, souls strive to thrive. In the Skanda Purana, the legend unfolds, Of Agnimukh's son, by a demon controlled. Hara and Hari, the protectors wise, Guided him to Devi Kamakshi, the deity who defies. With a bolt, she struck the demon's might, In defeat, he retreated, vanquished from sight. In gratitude, Agnimukh pleaded her stay, And in Rai, she resides till this very day.

Location and stay was fantastic ! We booked a couple room , but when we reached there we got to know that it has shared bathroom We spoke with Mr.Ranjeet , and he moved us to family suite which is incredible ! Also he helped me throughout my journey
The infrastructure is very good and has 24x7 ambulance service and over all the whole campus of the health center is very clean and every thing is nicely arranged .It is run by Government of Goa
Varity Spices found at reasonable rate, it's just difficult to park car. I would suggest park your vehicle before you get into market area as it's a narrow road.
