According to legend, the present-day forms of the “Divine Trinity” found in the Mehandipur Dham appeared around one thousand years ago in a valley amidst the hills of the Aravali Range.It was believed by some Mahant jis worshipped here for long time, that this area was covered by a thick and dense forest, full of wild animals, once upon a time.
One of the ancestors of Shri Mahantji had dreams in which Sri Balaji Maharaj had indicated three divine deities and a magnificent temple and had heard a divine voice in his dreams. These voices ordered him to get up and be prepared for Sri Balaji Hanuman’s duty and do the pujas here. He was unable to see any one when he woke up. He also can’t find any diety for years initially but after years of “Sadhna”, Lord Sri Balaji finally appeared and showed him the place in the forest where the temple and the three Divine Forms were found.
That ancestor of Shri Mahantji started doing “puja” and “arti” regularly at that sacred and holy spot in the forest itself. And after some years thousands of devotees of Lord Shri Balaji started coming every day to Mehandipur Balaji to pay homage. It is the belief that lord Shri Balaji not only cure the “sankat” but also provide “riddi and Siddi”. It is also believed taht the powers present here can make a dead man alive. And a person affected from any sort of evil powers can be cured here if a person truly worship and believe in Balaji.
There is a small pot at the feet of the “Presiding Deity” and the water in this pot never dries up due to continuous flow of “Blessed Holy Jal” from the left side of the chest of Lord Shri Balaji Hanuman. The “Divine Trinity” in the Mehandipur Dham comprises Pawanputra Shri Hanumana, Shri Bhairava Baba and Shri Pret-Raj Sarkar.
On reaching Mehandipur Balaji the people come to know how malignant evil sprit and black magic cast their spell and how the sankat walas get relief/cured from sprits and ills. The disciples are advised not to be fooled by sants and fakirs but contact pujariji in his office.
After worshiping and taking the darshan of Bhairav baba comes Pretraj Sarkar, whose deity is up on stairs from the Bhairav temple. Devotes worship the lord truly when they reach this Temple. Pretraj Sarkar is supposed to be the lord of Balaji, who upon his commands brings the Evils from the body of possessed person and give it to Bhairav baba for the punishment.
