Today, the festival of Hanuman Jayanti is being celebrated across the country. According to the Hindu calendar, Hanuman Jayanti is celebrated every year on the full moon day of Shukla Paksha of Chaitra month. In the scriptures, the troubleshooter Hanuman has been described as Bal Brahmachari. But do you know that there is also a temple in our country where Hanumanji and his wife Suvarchala are also worshiped. Let’s know about this unique temple of the country.
What is the recognition of Hanuman temple including Shri Suvarchala?
Hanuman Temple along with Sri Suvarchala is located in Alandu village of Khammam district of Telangana. Lord Hanuman and his wife Suvarchala Devi are worshiped in this temple. According to the temple priest, ‘Hanuman temple including Shri Suvarchala is the only temple not only in South India but all over India where Lord Hanuman and his wife Suvarchala Devi are worshiped.’
This temple was established in the year 2006. Every year the local people celebrate the wedding of Lord Hanuman on the day of Shukla Dashami. However, this is a very surprising thing for people living in North India, because devotees worship him as a celibate child.
Hanumanji considered Surya his guru.
The priest of the temple P. Sinha further said, ‘Hanumanji considered Surya as his guru.’ Suryadev had nine divine powers. Hanumanji wanted to study all subjects. But Suryadev could teach Hanuman only 5 out of 9. Because the remaining 4 subjects could only be given to those disciples who were married.
Hanumanji was unmarried. Therefore, Suryadev was having difficulty in teaching the remaining four subjects. Actually, while getting education, Hanumanji had to spend some time even in household life. But for this Hanumanji’s marriage was necessary. On this, Suryadev got an idea and suggested to marry Hanumanji. Initially Hanumanji did not agree to the marriage at all. Because, the remaining 4 knowledge can only be obtained by a married person. Therefore, to continue education, I eventually accepted the proposal for marriage. After this, Lord Surya, the Guru of Hanumanji, married Hanumanji to his daughter Suvarchala.
Lord Surya, the guru of Hanumanji, married Hanumanji to his daughter Suvarchala.
Before marriage, Hanumanji told Suryadev, ‘I have been celibate since childhood.’ Then how can I get married? Then Lord Surya replied that even after marrying my daughter, you can remain celibate and ascetic. After this Hanumanji was married to Suvarchala Devi, daughter of Lord Surya. However, after marriage, the two returned to their own penance. That marriage was done only to get the remaining siddhis to Hanumanji.
It is believed that whoever worships in this temple dedicated to Lord Hanuman and Goddess Suvarchala, all the wishes of his life are fulfilled. End of marriage related obstacles. Due to the grace of Bajrangbali, the job and business slows down. This is the reason that devotees come here from far and wide to seek the blessings of Lord Hanuman and Goddess Suvarchala.
