In the Churu district and 2hrs drive from Fatehpur, the great famous temple
of SANKATMOCHAN HANUMAN is situated. Salasar Balaji is situated in the small
town called Salasar. The holy temple requires no introduction to Hindus
all over the world. It has a trail of devotees that cannot be numbered.
The history of this temple dates back to 1811 in a village called Asota,
where a farmer while ploughing his field, got stuck by some rock under the
earth and when cleared by his wife, emerged an idol of Lord Hanuman. The
Thakur of that village dreamt being asked to shift the idol of Salasar for
proper religious incarnation.
At the same time a devotee worshiper of Lord Hanuman called Mean Das also
dreamt about the Lord and was asked to do the same. The idol was thus sent
to Salasar with all care and devotion.
Transforming the village into the Salasar Dham, initially a hut, the place
was later developed gradually into a concrete temple, which now has a large
complex. All that the devotees desire is fulfilled by Lord BALAJI, lacs
of followers from all over the world visit this holy place every year.
