Rajrappa finds mention in the Vedas, Puranas and Hindu scriptures as a "Shakti Peeth".
This place also holds a special position because of it's scenic beauty, making it a perfect picnic spot too.
Falling under the Ramgarh district of Jharkhand, the main attraction of the Rajrappa temple is the headless deity of Goddess Chinnamasta which stands on the body of Kamdeo and Rati in the lotus bed.
Chhinnamasta often spelled Chinnamasta and also called Chhinnamastika and Prachanda Chandika, is one of the Mahavidyas, ten Ta***ic goddesses and a ferocious aspect of Devi, the Hindu Divine Mother. Chhinnamasta can be easily identified by her fearsome iconography. The self-decapitated goddess holds her own severed head in one hand, a scimitar in another. Three jets of blood spurt out of her bleeding neck and are drunk by her severed head and two attendants. Chhinnamasta is usually depicted standing on a copulating couple.
The Chhinnamasta temple is popular for its Tantrik style of architectural design. Apart from the main temple, there are ten temples of various gods and goddesses such as the Surya (Sun God), Hanuman and Lord Shiva.
Besides religious importance, the place is also a picnic spot owing to its natural environment.
The hilly landscape covered with lush forest and rivers are some of its features.
The hot water spring located here increases the popularity of the region.
वेद, पुराण और हिंदू धर्मग्रंथों में राजरप्पा का उल्लेख "शक्ति पीठ" के रूप में मिलता है।
झारखंड के रामगढ़ जिले के अंतर्गत आने वाले, राजरप्पा मंदिर का मुख्य आकर्षण देवी छिन्नमस्ता है, जो कमल के बिस्तर पर कामदेव और रति के शरीर पर खड़े हैं।
यह स्थान प्राकृतिक सुंदरता के कारण एक विशेष स्थान रखता है, जिससे यह एक आदर्श पिकनिक स्थल भी बन जाता है।
