It is located in the town of Salasar, on NH-65 near Sujangarh in Churu district, Rajasthan. It is located near the pilgrim centers of Rani Sati Temple and Khatushyamji. The temple of Balaji which is another name of Hanuman is situated in the middle of Salasar and attracts innumerable worshippers throughout the year especially on Chaitra Purnima and Ashvin Purnima. The temple of Salasar Balaji is now considered to be a Shakti Sthal (a place of power) and Swayambhu (self creation) by faith, belief, miracles and wish fulfillments of the devotees. The idol of Balaji here is different from all other idols of Lord Hanumana. Hanumana possess round face with moustache and beard making it the most unique idol among the other idols of Hanumana all over the world. Highlights of the Salasar Dham:- Some of the regular activities of the temple which is very touching as per devotees values and social beliefs. • Regular worships of the deity. • Performing Aarti on fixed time slots. • Feasting of Brahmins and other mendicants. • Recitation of Ramayana . • Recitation of Kirtan & Bhajans . • Arrangement for Savamanis. • Recitation of Sundar Kand on every Tuesday in union by the singers. • Arrangement of stay for the visitors. • Even Regular Visit of Celebrities on monthly basis like Navjyot Singh Siddhu, Lakhbir Singh Lakkha, Swami Avdheshanand Giri ji Maharaj, Sanjay Dutt, Nisha Kothari etc. While the worship of the deity is managed by the Brahmins priests from the Dadhich clan, the temple is managed and maintained by the trust Hanuman Sewa Samiti.

Off.- 4, Continental Park, Opp. Karve Statue, Karve Road, Kothrud, Pune – 411038 Offices: Jaipur | Mumbai I Delhi | Bengaluru | Ahmedabad | Chandigarh | Panjim (Goa) I Latur I Ahmednagar I Nagpur I Gulbarga I Devotees Faith:- It is believed that on Shravan Shukla-Navami -Samvat 1811, a miracle happened. A Ginthala-Jat farmer of village Asota found idols of Balaji Lord Hanumana covered with sand while ploughing his fields. This news of the appearance of Lord Balaji spread in the village Asota immediately. The Thakur of Asota also heard the news. Balaji ordered him in his dream to send the idol to Salasar in the Churu district. The idol was sent to Salasar and consecrated at the place known as Salasar Dham today . Why Important :- Normally Devotee start coming from 1st navratra itself and many of them stay there till Purnima (12 oct. to 27 oct. 2015). Salasar Dham is the only place where a devotee stays for such a long time. The basic need like food and shelter are free for devotees here. Key Factor:- 1. Almost 30 lac devotees participate in Salasar Balaji Mela. 2. 30% devotees come by foot from 400 KM. 3. Some organizers arrange bhandhara (food) and stay management for the devotees who come by foot from long distance area on the way of Salasar Dham. 4. Even organizers arrange Bhajan Sandhya & Bhajan Mandli program for devotees on the way with proper arrangement of light sound system, singers, stage show etc. 5. Salasar Temple area upto to 6 KM area is properly arranged by the Hanuman Seva Samiti with proper Barricades, Jig jag Route line, Dome covered areas, Stage over bridge for different 2 routes, with proper arrangement & supply of water, food, Prasad, fruits & medicine for devotees as the heavy crowd of devotees wait for long time for Darshan in the queue. Reason for so much crowd :- Compared to the Chaitra navaratras(Mar-Apr) the farmer is in a more relaxed state of mind as all his sowing & agricultural related work is done. Therefore numbers of farmer devotees visiting in this period Sharad navratra (winter) are maximum. Devotees Category :- In this salasar festival which is organized during winter Navaratras, Devotees from every class and state visit and stay here. Many of the people come to fulfill their wishes. They come walking from nearby areas and also from approx 400 KM. they come in groups with a worship flag handing there group. This group contains men and women of all ages (youth-old) with full religious enjoinment and excitement. Apart from the farmers the A+ & B+ category crowd is also present. Regi. Off.- 4, Continental Park, Opp. Karve Statue, Karve Road, Kothrud, Pune – 411038 Offices: Jaipur | Mumbai I Delhi | Bengaluru | Ahmedabad | Chandigarh | Panjim (Goa) I Latur I Ahmednagar I Nagpur I Gulbarga I Devotee’s area: - In this salasar festival devotees are from every class and age. But the groups comprises of youth from age 20 to 40 years. The salasar Dham is not govt. undertaking property. This is completely private. Hence this festival is organized by well off people of the Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, UP, Chandigarh etc. Therefore A+, B+ devotees are very common here including women in large strength. Devotees Arrangements: - On the way of the devotees those who come by foot various stalls are arrange by local social workers. They provide them food, and bedding for rest along with basic requirement. Approx 30% devotees come by foot from 400 KM.

    ICF Hindu Temple of Oklahoma Calendar of Events 2012 Vaishno Devi Temple The first mention of the Mother Goddess is in the epic Mahabharat. When the armies of Pandavas and Kaurvas were arrayed in the battlefield of Kurukshetra, Arjun, the chief warrior of Pandavas upon the advice of Sri Krishna; meditated upon the Mother Goddess and sought Her bless- ings for victory. This is when Arjun addresses the Mother Goddess as ‘Jambookatak Chit- yaishu Nityam Sannihi- talaye’, which means ‘you who always dwell in the temple on the slope of the mountain in Jamboo’ (probably referring to the present day Jammu). Navratri Festival is cele- brated every year in Katra, the base camp of Sri Mata Vaishno Devi. On this auspicious occasion entire Katra town is decorated tastefully and people from the region participate in large numbers. In order to visit the Holy Shrine of Mata Vaishno Deviji, one has to reach Katra, a small town situated around 50 kms. from Jammu, the winter capi- tal of the state of Jammu & Kashmir. Katra serves as the base camp for the yatra. Katra is well connected to Jammu and Jammu, in turn, is well con- nected to the rest of the country by air, rail, and road.

  • Fairs & Festivals, Part VII-B, Vol-XIV, Rajasthan
    PRG. 172 B (N) 1,000 CENSUS OF INDIA 1961 VOLUME XIV .RAJASTHAN PART VII-B FAIRS & FESTIVALS c. S. GUPTA OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE Superintendent of Census Operations, Rajasthan 1966 PREFACE Men are by their nature fond of festivals and as social beings they are also fond of congregating, gathe­ ring together and celebrating occasions jointly. Festivals thus culminate in fairs. Some fairs and festivals are mythological and are based on ancient traditional stories of gods and goddesses while others commemorate the memories of some illustrious pers<?ns of distinguished bravery or. persons with super-human powers who are now reverenced and idealised and who are mentioned in the folk lore, heroic verses, where their exploits are celebrated and in devotional songs sung in their praise. Fairs and festivals have always. been important parts of our social fabric and culture. While the orthodox celebrates all or most of them the common man usually cares only for the important ones. In the pages that follow an attempt is made to present notes on some selected fairs and festivals which are particularly of local importance and are characteristically Rajasthani in their character and content. Some matter which forms the appendices to this book will be found interesting. Lt. Col. Tod's fascinating account of the festivals of Mewar will take the reader to some one hundred fifty years ago. Reproductions of material printed in the old Gazetteers from time to time give an idea about the celebrations of various fairs and festivals in the erstwhile princely States. Sarva Sbri G.
