Dhekiakhowa Bornamghar

Dhekiakhowa Bornaamghar is a naamghar in Jorhat district, Assam, India, that was established by saint-reformer Madhavdeva.

[2][3] In 1528 (1450 Saka), Madhavdeva kindled an earthen lamp there, which according to the naamghar's managing committee has been burning continuously since then, being refueled with mustard oil by the priests.

Guru Madhavdeva after taking up the duty of reforming people and spreading the Ekasarana Naam Dharma came to stay in this small village.

He took shelter for the night at the hut of an old woman, who served him rice with Dhekia Saak (Fiddlehead Fern), a very common wild vegetable.

Next day when people saw that dream to be true, they made the main pillars of the Bornamghar from the tree.
