Deshonok is a dusty town on the edge of the Great Indian Desert, halfway between New Delhi and the western border of India. This is a place of amazing monuments, but the most amazing place here is the Temple of Karni Mata, a place dedicated to rats.
It is said that there are about 20,000 mice here, and believers believe that these mice are the earthly representative of the 15th-century sage Erny Mata, and it disappeared near Deshonok at the age of 151. Carney Mata is revered for his generosity, goodwill, and is considered the incarnation of the goddess Durga.
The most devoted believers eat the bread crumbs left by mice, and they drink water from mice’s bathing and playing bowls. Some people even sleep in temples, letting mice crawl on themselves at night. It is believed that all of these actions will bring good luck, especially to those who encounter the two hard-to-see albinos mice in the temple.
