It is one of the major religious traditions of Hindus. It has marked its presence in India and abroad with various distinct features pertaining to different time and places. Tripurā, one of the seven sisters of North Eastern states, presents Śaivism with very unique features. In Tripurā there are many scattered evidences of the presence of śaivism at different places in different times. One of the prime centers of Śaivite activities in Tripura is Unakoṭī, a small place near Kailashahar the head quarter of the Unakoṭī district. It is one of the important archaeological sites of India with huge engraved rock arts. Here the rock arts are very much unique in their style with the touch of tribal art features, which seems absent in other rock-cut art sites of India viz. Mahabalipuram, Ellora etc. Reliefs on the surface of living rock and on detached stone slab are two verities of works to be found in Unakoṭī. This place has a well-earned reputation of a Śaiva pilgrimage, may be due to the busy activities of śaivites in remote past and thereby generating a deep faith in the mind of people which result in religious activities in that region. A text, glorifying the holiness of the place Unakoṭī, titled ūnakoṭitīrthamāhātmya was composed at some point of time; though unfortunately it has survived now only as citations of few lines in Rājmālā. Thus taking both epigraphic and literary sources into account this paper will examine the nature of Śaivism in Tripurā, especially which prevailed in Unakoṭī.
