The myriad dimensions of faith are sometimes difficult to comprehend by the rational mind. Sikar, a place close to Jaipur is witness to such a wonderful enigma of devotion in the form of Khatushyam Temple. A manifestation of Barbarik (the grandson of Bhima and Ahilya), the great warrior was blessed by Lord Krishna to be known and worshiped as “Shyam” for all times to come. Thousands of devotees who visit the Khatushyam Temple have a strong faith that the ultimate solution to all their problems lies in the darshan of “Shyam Baba”. With numerous tales of myths and folklore associated with the establishment of the Temple, the spirituality surrounding the deity never ceases to amaze. Here a dip in the shyam kund, is believed to cure all ailments and a glance at the holy Shyam Baba’s idol brings one happiness.
