The Path of Devotion: Sheesh Dani & The Bearded Balaji
Begin your spiritual odyssey from Jaipur by traveling to the sacred town of Khatu. Here resides Lord Khatu Shyam Ji, worshipped as the Kaliyuga avatar of Lord Krishna. Legend says he is Barbarika from the Mahabharata, who sacrificed his head (Sheesh Daan) to Krishna. Devotees believe that a mere glimpse of the idol here grants the wishes of the "helpless" (Haare Ka Sahara). For a dedicated trip here, explore our Jaipur to Khatu Shyam Ji Taxi services.
The journey continues to Churu district to visit the miraculous temple of Salasar Balaji. This temple is unique in India as it houses the only idol of Lord Hanuman featuring a **beard and mustache**, depicting him in a rare, adult form. The idol is Swayambhu (self-manifested), discovered by a farmer in a field in 1754.
Completing this circuit in a single day requires efficient travel. Our comfortable private vehicles ensure that families and elders can perform their Darshan without fatigue. If you are traveling with a larger group of devotees, we strongly recommend our Tempo Traveller service to keep the group united in prayer and travel.
