History: Established by Swami Haridas in the 16th century, the image of Lord Krishna was originally worshipped in Nidhivan before the current temple was constructed in 1864.
Pujas Performed: Shringar Aarti, Rajbhog, and Shayan Aarti (Mangala Aarti is only performed once a year on Janmashtami).
Benefits of Puja: Grants peace of mind, deepens devotion (Bhakti), and brings immense joy and harmony to the family.
Sevas: Phool Bangla (elaborate floral decoration during summers), Chhappan Bhog, and Poshak Seva.
Deities: Lord Krishna lovingly worshipped in the tribhanga (three-bent) posture as Banke Bihari Ji.
Fact: There are no bells in the temple because it is believed the loud sound might startle the child-like Lord. The curtain is repeatedly opened and closed during Darshan to prevent the Lord from being mesmerized by a devotee's love and following them home.
