Mahara Kesh, the Temple of Healing, was one of the nine Je'daii Temples established by the Je'daii Order on the planet Tython. Constructed between 36,453 BBY and 36,019 BBY, Mahara Kesh was built in the Deep Ocean around the Tho Yor pyramid ship that had brought the first Force-sensitive pilgrims to the sea. The Je'daii who studied at Mahara Kesh focused on the healing arts, and Je'daii Journeyers—young Je'daii who were completing their Great Journey across Tython to visit each of the temples—learned about healing both with and without the Force there. During the conflict in the year 25,805 BBY known as the Despot War, laser cannons were installed on the temple as defensive measures, and by 25,793 BBY the mated Selkath couple of Naro and Calleh were serving as the Temple Masters of Mahara
