Every Hindu family has its own family deity. The word Kula means family or clan and Devata means male-deity and Devi means female-deity. Hindu families make a pilgrimage to the Kuladevata or Kuladevi temple to obtain blessing of the deity after an auspicious occasion such as a wedding. In Maharashtra, the Kuladevatas are mainly manifestations of Shiva or Shakti respectively.
