Mother Kali's Dham Shyama Kali temple is built on the pyre in Darbhanga, Bihar. This temple is known as Shyama Mai's temple and  built on the graveyard where the ancestors of the Royal Family were buried. The temple was built by the son of Rameshwar Singh named Kameshwar Singh in 1933 AD.

In this temple, mother Kali is worshiped with both Vedic and Tantric methods. Experts say that Shyama Mai Mata is in the form of Sita. Laldas, who was a servant of King Rameshwar Singh, has explained this in the Rameshwar Charit Mithila Ramayana. It is derived from the Ramayana composed by Valmiki. It is told that after Ravana was killed, Mother-Sita told Lord Rama that whoever slays Sahatrananda will be the real hero.

On this, Lord Rama went out to kill him. During the war, Lord Rama got an arrow from Sahasranand. Mother Sita became very angry about this and killed Sahastranand. Mother's color turned black with anger. Even after the slaughter, his anger did not calm down, so Lord Shiva himself had to come to stop him. As soon as the feet were placed on the Lord's chest, the mother was very ashamed and the tongue came out of her mouth. This form of Mother is worshiped and she is called here Kali, not Shyama.

In the sanctum sanctorum, a huge statue of Maa Kali is installed on the right side of Mahakal and Ganapati and Batukabhairava Dev on the left. The Mund Mala around the neck of the mother has the equivalent of the letters of the Hindi alphabet. Devotees believe that this is because the Hindi alphabet is a symbol of creation.

The statue of mother was brought from Paris - Historians say that this statue came from Paris. On the part of the mother, there is a delectable Raktim or yellow cloth. This idol of Maa Kali is of four arms. The right hand always blesses the visiting refugees.
