点评:Visit to Jejuri Khandoba Mandir was great! If you are going on a Saturday or Sunday get an early start and try to be there by 7AM. It will still be crowded but you can get out in less than an hour by buying the 200 Rs. pass once you enter the temple area.
For Google Maps put “Khandoba mandir Jejuri” as address and it will take you to the “east entrance” which is the main entrance. When you see the steps for the mandir (at T junction almost at the end of google directions), make a right turn on that street and about 50-100 meters ahead you will see a large open parking area on the left side. Park there and you can walk for few minutes to access the steps to the temple. The steps are not too bad, if you are generally active you can get up to the temple in 10-15 mins max.
The temple has restrooms which are obviously not clean but they are okay compared to some other temples. There is no soap at the wash basin ( so carry your own soap, sanitizer if you need to use the restroom frequently).
With the Rs.200 per person pass you get quick access to the main temple for Darshan, which is a huge benefit. Inside be prepared to be dragged into some traditional puja and asked to offer money for annadan etc. It is not bad at all just be firm on the amount you want to give (I suggest Rs.500 inside and possibly Rs. 1500-2500 (can be less also depending on your capacity) for a small puja one of the local pandits will do for your family. It’s not bad just be prepared to experience it!
Overall Greta experience to see the golden Jejuri with all the turmeric around. Fun and spiritual experience.
翻译:参观杰朱里坎多巴神庙 (Jejuri Khandoba Mandir) 真是太棒了!如果您在周六或周日前往,请务必早点出发,争取在早上 7 点前到达。虽然人会比较多,但您可以在进入寺庙区域后购买 200 卢比的通行证,这样不到一个小时就能离开。
在谷歌地图上输入“Khandoba mandir Jejuri”作为地址,它会带您前往“东入口”,也就是正门。当您看到通往神庙的台阶时(在谷歌地图导航接近尾声的丁字路口),右转进入这条路,大约 50-100 米后,您会在左侧看到一个大型露天停车场。将车停在那里,然后步行几分钟即可到达通往寺庙的台阶。台阶并不难爬,如果您平时比较活跃,最多 10-15 分钟就能到达寺庙。
寺庙里有洗手间,虽然卫生状况肯定不如其他一些寺庙,但还算可以接受。洗手池没有肥皂(所以如果您需要频繁使用洗手间,请自备肥皂和消毒液)。
每人200卢比的通行证可以快速进入主庙进行朝拜,这是一项巨大的优势。进入寺庙后,请做好准备,可能会被邀请参加一些传统的祭祀仪式,并被要求捐献食物等。这没什么不好,只是要坚持自己想要捐献的金额(我建议在寺庙内捐献500卢比,如果当地一位祭司会为您的家人进行小型祭祀仪式,可以捐献1500-2500卢比,当然也可以根据您的经济能力少一些)。这没什么不好,只是要做好心理准备!
总的来说,看到金灿灿的杰朱里(Jejuri)周围环绕着姜黄,是一次很棒的体验。既有趣又充满灵性。
