Let us now know the story of Khatu Shyamji
During their exile, the Pandavas conflicted with Hidimba. Hidimba gave birth to a son named Ghatokha from Bhima. Ghatokha gave birth to Barbarik. Both of them were known for their courage and strength. Barbaric decided to watch the war between the Kauravas and the Pandavas. When Lord Krishna asked him which side he would fight or lose, he said that he would fight on his own side.
Lord Shri Krishna knew the outcome of the war and was afraid, so he asked for donations to stop Barbarik. He asked for a head in charity. Barbaric donated the head to him, but he expressed his desire to see the war through to the end.
Shri Krishna accepted his wish and placed his head on a hill at the battle site. After the war, Pandavas started fighting over who should get the credit for the victory of the war. Then Barbarik said that he got victory only because of Lord Krishna. Lord Shri Krishna was pleased with this sacrifice and gave the boon to be worshipped in the name of Shyam in Kaliyuga. Today, people from all over the country come to Babaโs door, and now it has come to light that more than 25 lakh devotees will come to Khatu Shyam Mela 2024.
