Shravani Mela 2023: On Monday, July 3, 2023, on the occasion of Guru Purnima, the two-month-long Shravani Mela will be formally inaugurated. Devotees will be able to do Sparsh Puja of Baba Baidyanath till Monday and as soon as the Sawan starts on Tuesday, Argha will be installed in the sanctum sanctorum of Baba temple and water will be offered through this. During the Shravani Mela, the doors of Baba Mandir will be opened every day at 03:05 in the morning. For this, the Baba Mandir administration has completed all preparations.
Kanwariye will perform Jalabhishek on Baba Bholenath from Argha itself
On Tuesday, July 4, 2023, only after Kancha Jal Puja is performed in the morning, Argha will be installed in the middle section of the temple. At the same time, after the Sardari Puja, the people of the Purohit Samaj present in Manjhala Khand will also come out after worshiping Baba through Argha. After this, water will be offered to the devotees through Argha under the queuing arrangement. At the same time, in order to avoid the queue, an external Argha is being set up right next to the Baba Mandir exit gate for the elderly, small children and sick people. Here, for the convenience of the devotees, three arghas will be connected to each other with pipes and will be connected to the main argha. By offering water in the outer Argha, the water will be offered on Baba’s Shivling. During the mail, there will be no entry of anyone except the employees on duty from the exit gate. People of the priestly community will also enter through the way made in the administrative building.
Coupon rate will also be different
Devotees visiting Baba Mandir during Shravani Mela will have to pay extra fee for the facility of early Darshanam. During the entire fair, each coupon will be available at the rate of Rs.500. Once the coupon is issued it can be used on the same day. The validity of the coupon will expire on the next day.
