Karni Mata Temple Deshnok
 Karni Mata Temple Deshnok The Karni Mata Temple is an important Jain pilgrimage site. It is a beautiful temple made of marble with solid silver doors. However, it is not the architecture of this temple that attracts non-Jain tourists , it is the thousands of rats that inhabit it. There are special holes and tunnels around the temple to facilitate the rats movements as well as a wire screen over the courtyard to protect them from birds of prey. Jain pilgrims are anointed with ash while the scurrying critters run over their feet. This is considered very auspicious as is spotting a rare white rat. Bowls of milk and water are strategically placed throughout the temple and pilgrims feed the rats balls of sugar. You may be asking, "Why all the fuss about rats?" Well, these Jain pilgrims believe that the rats are their ancestors. Legend has it that in the 14th century, Karni Mata, an incarnation of Durga (Shiva The Destroyer's wife's evil side) asked Yama, the god of death to restore the life of her son who had drowned. When he refused, she restored the life and deemed that her ancestors would no longer die, that they would be reincarnated as rats which would then be reincarnated as her family members.
