This temple is not just a place of worship, but has many secrets in itself. Every Krishna devotee must know about these unheard things. Let’s know some such secrets related to Banke Bihari ji, which will surprise you and deepen your faith.
How did the statue of Banke Bihari appeared,
This is a question that everyone is surprised to hear. It is believed that the idol of Banke Bihari ji itself appeared. The founder of the temple, the great devotee Swami Haridas Ji Maharaj used to perform bhajan-kirtan in Nidhivan Raj. One day, Lord Krishna and Radha Rani appeared on their own hymns. Swamiji prayed to him to live here for the devotees, after which Radha-Krishna’s couple image merged into a beautiful statue. This idol still sits in the Banke Bihari temple. This incident is a miracle in itself and that is why this idol is considered extremely revered.
Why Mangla Aarti is not there
Mangala Aarti is performed at dawn in almost all Krishna temples of the world, which is a symbol of awakening God. But this is not the tradition in the Banke Bihari temple! The reason for this is that here God is considered as a child. It is believed that Bihari ji is absorbed in his pastimes overnight, and it is not appropriate to awaken them early in the morning. Therefore, God is awakened late here, and the first Aarti (Shringar Aarti) of the day is a little late. This unique tradition shows the Vatsalya sense of devotees towards Bihari ji.
Darshan should be done by opening eyes
You must have often heard that while seeing God, you should close your eyes and meditate. But in the Banke Bihari temple, the opposite, the devotees should open their eyes and see it! It is believed that Bihari ji’s image is so attractive that if you blink the eyelids, you can miss a single moment of his darshan. Starting his siren image is true devotion to him.
After every two minutes, the curtain seems
It is one of the most surprising and famous traditions of the temple. In the Banke Bihari temple, the curtain is placed in front of Bihari ji after every two minutes and then removed. This series continues continuously. There are many beliefs behind this tradition. Some people say that the image of Bihari ji is so powerful that if a devotee looks at him for a long time, he can lose his senses by completely absorbed in his love. Devotees are saved from this intense experience by applying the curtain.
It is said that it was not a tradition about 400 years ago but once a seeker came to the temple to see Banke Bihari ji. Then he started seeing Banke Bihari ji with great love for a long time. During that time, God started walking with the seeker’s love and started walking with him. When Panditji saw this scene, there is no statue of Banke Bihari ji in the temple. So he requested God to walk back to the temple. Since then, the tradition of putting a cover in front of Banke Bihari ji on every 2 minute gap started.
