Shivaharkaray

Shivaharkaray or Karavipur is a Shakti Peeth of Hindu Goddess Durga, located near Parkai Railway Station, Karachi, Pakistan. It is one of the three Shakti Peethas in Pakistan, other two being: Hinglaj Mata mandir and Sharada Peeth. Puranas describe that the three eyes (the third eye) of the Goddess fell here after she committed Sati. 

The Goddess is worshipped as Mahishasuramardini, or the slayer of the Demon Mahishasur. Her consort, the Hindu God Shiva, is worshipped in Ragi form as Krodhish, personification of anger. Shivaharkaray is third in the list of 51 Peethas identified in the Puranas.
