About Laikhurembi
During the first century BC, Queen Laikhurembi was the first wife of King Thongaren (Ancient Meitei/Old Manipuri: Thongalen) of Khamnung country. Then king asked her to marry his younger brother, Poireiton, instead, because Poireiton's wife had died. Poireiton was beginning a journey toTai Pang Panand King Thongalel thought it would not be good for Poireiton to go without a wife. However, Laikhurembi did not want to go. Trees had already been planted to honor her as the King's wife. Instead of Laikhurembi, King Thongalel sent his second wife Leinaotabi to accompany her brother in law Poireiton as a wife. Laikhurembi was later deified as a powerful Meitei goddess. Goddess Laikhurembi had special powers. She was Yungyatnaba (lit. erect and sharp) which meant she could see objects accurately
