The term "garbhagriha" refers to the innermost sanctum of a Hindu temple, where the main deity is enshrined. This sacred space is typically small and dark, symbolizing the womb or the source of creation. Devotees visit the garbhagriha to offer prayers and seek blessings, as it is considered the heart of the temple. In many temples, the garbhagriha is surrounded by a larger hall called the mandapa, where worshippers gather. The design and architecture of the garbhagriha often reflect the spiritual significance of the deity, making it a focal point for rituals and ceremonies in Hinduism.
