Love of Shakambhari Mata at Sikar – Explore with Hotel Annpurna Regency

Project confirmation for workshop in College at Sikar in the New Year was thrilling but mostly people had drawn a picture of Sikar as a city of coaching center so I was not expecting anything from the visit.

**Best Hotels in Sikar, Rajasthan – Hotel Annpurna Regency**

In Delhi, January is a month to play hide and seek with Sun. From smoggy morning of Delhi, we were welcomed by dazzling sunshine at Sikar which was a beautiful new years’ gift. Taking an auto ride from the station felt like any other city of Rajasthan still after completing the workshop I and my husband wanted to visit the place. By that time we had heard loads of adventurous and mischievousness childhood stories of Mr. Amit (the owner of Annpurna Hotel), and his you tube influencer friend which were tempting for both of us to explore the place. Like every time I was not keen to visit any temple.

**Hotels Near Shakambari Mata Mandir – Hotel Annpurna Regency**

Next day in bright sunshine the car was running through the circular rough and rocky roads with the striking hills at the backdrop making the journey wild and romantic. This was topped up with the thrilling local stories of our driver friend who by then had become a part of our gang. We stopped at some of the turns to capture the view in our camera. Every minute of drive was taking me closer to a temple which the local had praised a lot but I was enjoying the curvy and stony roads.
Soon we reached at the hill top, standing in front of the Shakambhari Mata temple. Two things instantly stole my attention: one, there was no que and the temple had some colourful paintings and murals on walls. Following the queue we reached the garv griha (the main section of the idol) where 2 vermillion pasted idols where placed. One of Brhamani and Rudrani riding lion in posture of killing Mahishasura. Suddenly looking at those idols of mata felt like pure, eternal peace and a sense of contentment but mata had planned more than that. While I was involved in showing the temple to my parents on a whats app call, one of the sadhus very warmly brought us a huge laddu prasad from the Prasad center. I still feel thrilled with the thought that how mata had pampered us as she knew that we both always crave for sweets in temple. If this was not enough, purohitji handed a rose garland of Shakambhari Mata with a packet full of Shakambhari Mata’s belongings. Holding all those items inside the temple, I was sure that it was mata’s way of showering her love on us.

The journey back was filled with joy of receiving those unexpected gifts from Shakambhari Mata, who did not even want to visit the temple. That’s the magic of the eternal power.

**Book Hotel near Hence Lahar Kund Sikar, Rajasthan – Hotel Annpurna Regency**

The hot spring has many mythological stories weaved around its importance. One such story is linked to the epic Mahabharata. It is believed that after winning the Kurukshetra war, Pandav brothers were upset and were guilty of killing their own family members. On this Lord Krishna suggested them to visit various religious places and also mentioned the destination where their weapons will be dissolved, will be a sign of forgiveness of their sins. So Pandav started their pilgrimage and finally at Lohargal Kund in Sikar their weapons were dissolved confirming their forgiveness. Hence Lahar Kund has its spiritual relevance among the locals.
It is commonly visited by the devotees on all the religious occasions and various religious fairs are also organised in Somvati Amavasya, Bhadrapad Amavasya. As the hot spring has a Sun temple, so on the occasion of Surya Saptami a religious procession is organised in the Magh month of Hindu calendar attended by a huge number of devotees. Even the devotees take a holy bath in the kund to purify their sins.

So If you are those interested in exploring off-the-beaten destinations in Rajasthan, then Sikar has a beautiful combination of history, art, and spiritual converge.

Khatushyam ji Temple

Sikar is famous for the KHATU SHYAM JI TEMPLE where a huge number of devotees come from the entire Rajasthan and all parts of India.

Hotel Annpurna Regency is a facilitation guest arriving at Sikar to visit Khatu Shyam Temple (35 KM) and Salasar Balaji Dham Temple (60 KM). The hotel is conveniently located as a midpoint and guest can avoid crowded stays near the temple. Both places have very limited options of stay and it becomes very cumbersome to find good accommodation near the temple premises.
We have seen families getting unnecessarily harassed and spoiling their entire experience of visiting due to the high volume of visitors.

Hotel Annpurna Regency which is on the highway works as the best alternative, as the property is in the city and the temple is easily accessible by just a 45-minute drive.
Guest generally coming by own vehicle or by train opt to stay at Sikar and leaves for the temple as per the temple timings. The hotel team will also assist you with all the important information required to ensure a smooth visit.

**Best Restaurant in Sikar – Hotel Annpurna Regency**

Hotel Annpurna Regency attracts many guest due to Our Restaurant that offers pure vegetarian food, with a variety of Indian, Chinese, Continental and South Indian. We are rated as one of the best restaurants in Sikar.

THE STORY BEHIND KHATU SHYAM JI TEMPLE, RAJASTHAN

According to Hindu mythology, before the battle of Mahabharata began, the prowess of Barbarika was said to be unmatched. He had decided to favour the weaker side so he could remain just, a decision which would have resulted in the complete annihilation of both sides, leaving only Barbarika as the sole survivor. It is said that Shree Krishna, to avoid such devastating results, asked Barbarika for his head (sheesh daan), to which he readily agreed. Shree Krishna was extremely happy with the devotion shown to him, and by the great sacrifice of Barbarika that he granted him a boon, according to which Barbarika would be known by Krishna’s own name, Shyam Ji in the kaliyug (present times) and would be worshipped in his form.

THE AARTIS PERFORMED AT THE KHATU SHYAM MANDIR – Which is a must for disciples.
There are 5 aartis that are performed daily at the Khatu Shyam Ji mandir. The devotional ambience and the serenity brought forth by the chanting and the aarti is incomparable, and if you were to plan a visit to this beautiful temple, you should try to attend one of these aartis.

Mangala Aarti: This is performed early in the morning when the temple opens its gates to the devotees.
Shringaar Aarti: As the name suggests, this is the time when the Khatu Shyam Ji’s idol is grandly ornamented, accompanied by an aarti.
Bhog Aarti: The third aarti of the day, it is performed at noon when bhog or prasadam is served to the lord.
Sandhya Aarti: This aarti is performed in the evening, at the time of sunset.
Sayana Aarti: Before the temple is closed for the night, sayana aarti is performed.

There are two special hymns that are chanted at all these times. These are the Shri Shyam Aarti and the Shri Shyam Vinati.
