Mehandipur Balaji shrine
The Times of India, July 24, 2011
If one visits Mehandipur Balaji shrine in Dausa district of Rajasthan, one will be met by a strange sight. Hundreds of devotees lie around with heavy stones on their body. They claim the stones work like magic to ease any pain. And if it’s evil spirits that are troubling you, why, the deity handles that too. Such people are kept locked or chained in a big room. The priest treats them either by reciting holy verses or by giving physical pain.
