Historians say

The Shakti Peetha of Sati's TONGUE. THERE IS NO IDOL: nine natural flames burn from fissures in the rock, each worshipped as a form of the goddess. Wikipedia attributes them to underground natural gas 'IGNITED BY AN UNKNOWN SOURCE'. Founded by RAJA BHUMI CHAND KATOCH after a dream. Offerings of milk, water, ghee and sweets go directly into the fire.
