Shri Khatushyamji mandir,KHATU NARESH KI JAI (KhatuShyamji)

India / Rajasthan / Ringas / KhatuShyamji
Khatushyamji is a name and manifestation of Barbarika who obtained a boon from Krishna to the effect that he would be known by Krishna's own name (Shyam) in the Kaliyuga era (presently ongoing) and worshipped.
Krishna had declared that Barbarika's devotees would be blessed just by pronouncing his name from the bottom of their hearts. Their wishes would be granted and troubles removed if they worship Shyamji (Barbarika) with a true piety.
The temple is architecturally rich. Lime mortar, marble and tiles have been used in constructing the structure. The shutters of the Sanctum Sanctorum are beautifully covered with silver sheet.
Outside is the prayer hall, named Jagmohan. The hall is large in size (measuring 12.3 m x 4.7 m) and its walls are elaborately painted, depicting mythological scenes.
The entrance gate and exit gate are made of marble; their brackets are also of marble and feature ornamental floral designs.
Thousands of devotees visit the temple everyday. Newly married couples come to pay homage and newly born babies are brought to the temple for their mundan (the first hair-shaving) ceremony. An elaborate Aarti is performed at the temple four times a day.
