Butati Dham: A Temple of Miracles for Paralysis Patients

Butati Dham is a temple located near Kuchera town in Nagaur district of Rajasthan. It is dedicated to Saint Chaturdas Ji Maharaj, who is believed to have miraculous powers to cure paralysis. Every year, lakhs of people from across the country and abroad visit this temple to seek healing from this debilitating condition.

The Legend of Saint Chaturdas Ji

According to the legend, Saint Chaturdas Ji was born in a Charan caste family about 500 years ago. He was a great yogi and a devotee of Lord Shiva. He and his brother, Saint Gangadas Ji, went on a pilgrimage to various holy places. During their journey, they met many sages and saints who blessed them with divine powers.

One day, they reached a place called Butati, where they decided to stay for some time. There, they saw many people suffering from paralysis and other diseases. Saint Chaturdas Ji felt compassion for them and started using his powers to heal them. He would apply ash from the sacred fire (havan kund) on their bodies and make them walk around the temple seven times. Soon, the news of his miracles spread far and wide, and people started flocking to Butati Dham for paralysis cure.

Saint Chaturdas Ji spent the rest of his life in Butati, serving the people and worshipping Lord Shiva. He attained samadhi (final liberation) at the age of 108. His samadhi is now the main shrine of Butati Dham temple, where people pay their respects and seek his blessings.

The Ritual of Sapt Parikrama

The main ritual of Butati Dham temple is the sapt parikrama (seven circumambulations). It is believed that anyone who performs this ritual with faith and devotion can get rid of paralysis or any other disease. The ritual involves walking around the temple seven times in seven days, twice a day: once in the morning after the aarti (worship service) and once in the evening before the aarti.

The temple authorities provide free accommodation, food, water, utensils, firewood and other facilities to the patients and their attendants. They also provide guidance and assistance to perform the ritual properly. The patients are advised to follow a vegetarian diet, abstain from alcohol and tobacco, and maintain cleanliness and hygiene during their stay.

Many patients have reported significant improvement or complete recovery after completing the sapt parikrama. Some have even shared their testimonials on social media platforms like Facebook and YouTube. The temple also organizes special fairs and festivals on auspicious occasions like Ekadashi (eleventh lunar day), Vaishakh (April-May), Bhadon (August-September) and Magh (January-February), when thousands of devotees throng to Butati Dham.
