Historical belief
According to the Puranas in Hinduism, wherever the body parts of Goddess Sati, together with ornaments, became their Shaktipeeth. These Shaktipeeths are called very holy shrines, which are spread everywhere in the Indian subcontinent. These Shaktipeeths are very ambitious religiously. The Devipuran describes 51 Shaktipeeths.Yashore Shaktipeeth is one of the 51 Shaktipeeths. According to spiritual texts, parts of Goddess Sati fell at all these places. According to the legend, a yajna was organized by King Daksha, father-in-law of Lord Shiva, by which King Daksha did not ship invites to Lord Shiva and Mother Sati because King Daksha was not thinking of Lord Shiva as his equal..
Mother Sati found it very bad. She reached the yagna without calling. At the place of sacrifice, Lord Shiva was insulted a lot which Mata Satibhuti could not do and she added Kumari to the Havan Kund there.
Lord Shankar came to know about this, after which he reached there and took out the body of Mata Sati from Havan Kund and began doing Tandava, which caused an uproar in the entire universe. To save your entire universe from this crisis, Lord Vishnu divided the body of Mata Sati into 51 parts from his Sudarshan Chakra, the limb where it fell became the Shakti Peetha. The "arms and feet soles" of Mother Sati fell in Yashore Shaktipeeth. Here the mother's sati is known as Sh Yashoreshwari and Lord Shiva as 'Chanda' (Chandra).
