Swami Bodhayan Mandir (Sanskrit: स्वामी बौधायन मंदिर)[1] is a Hindu temple in Bongaon village, Bajpatti block, Sitamarhi district, Bihar, India, which is said to be the birthplace of the Vedic sage, Bodhayan, who created the Baudhayana sutras.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
The foundation of the temple was laid by Devraha Baba in 1956. A lake, named Baudhayan Sarovar, was also constructed near the temple. The place was identified as the birthplace of Bhagwan Bodhayan by the Sanskrit scholar Sarvabhaum Vasudevacharya.
The landlords of the village donated 25 acres of land to this temple. There is a very old giant Banyan tree. The Banyan tree is considered the seat of penance for Bodhayan. The tree is known as Bodhayansar. The location of the temple is also known as Bodhayana Tapobhumi. Inside the temple, the idol of Bhagwan Bodhayan and outside the temple, an idol of Sarvabhaum Vasudevacharya was installed. The present priest of the temple is Acharya Shivam Das.
