- This temple is just an experience, which changes the way of thinking.
Mehandipur Balaji Temple: There are some places in this world where we go out of curiosity and they silently challenge our understanding of reality. Mehndipur Balaji temple also comes in this category. It leaves a deep impression in our minds, especially in uncomfortable situations that we can see and understand.
The first thing you feel upon entering this temple is the atmosphere, which may seem heavy, intense and a little unusual. Here not only mantras are chanted, but such sounds also echo which do not sound like normal prayers. Many times these sounds suddenly turn into loud screams or uncontrollable sounds. On hearing it for the first time, the mind asks itself, is this pain, fear or some kind of relief?
The view of the temple is equally astonishing. Some people are seen suddenly doing strange activities, some are seen shaking their body repeatedly, and some are seen hitting the wall. And the thing that surprises the most amidst all this is that the people standing around do not panic. There is no fear of any kind on his face, rather a kind of habit or acceptance is visible. As if all this is normal.
Is it this mediocrity that stands out?
Slowly inside the temple you start realizing that this place has its own unspoken rules. Here people neither interrupt each other nor ask questions nor do they react to anyone’s condition. You yourself also start falling into the same pattern. Without thinking, you also become silent, lower your eyes and just keep looking.
But the real effect is not seen outside, but inside.
After staying in the temple for some time, the uneasiness starts increasing without any reason. Breathing becomes a little faster, heartbeat can be felt. It is not necessary that there is any visible danger behind this happening, but the environment instructs you to remain constantly alert. Sometimes it also seems as if someone is standing behind, and you are suddenly forced to turn and look, although there is no one there.
Some rules are also told before going to the temple, in which the first most important rule is not to take the Prasad outside and most importantly, do not look back while going out. Initially, it seems like a mere tradition, but after going inside, these rules feel like a warning.
It is not easy to estimate the time there. You don’t understand how long you have been standing there. Many small scenes get imprinted in your mind, like a person suddenly sitting quiet, then after a few moments becomes normal. These changes are so subtle that you cannot decide whether what you have seen was real or just an illusion.
The most important thing is that you yourself also start changing. You come across as a logical person, but follow every rule without questioning. Your behaviour, your thinking, everything gradually starts getting adapted to that environment.

This is the real effect of this place-
Now the question arises that, whatever happens there, is it actually external or a reaction of our brain? Is this a religious process or a psychological effect?
But it is certain that Mehandipur Balaji is not just a temple. This is an experience which affects you deeply. What’s more, when you return from there, those places are not only remembered, but also get settled in your way of thinking.
