Bangaloreans, did you know that there is a powerful wish-fulfilling temple right in the heart of the city? Karya Siddhi Anjaneya Temple in Girinagar fulfils your deep-seated desires if you offer a coconut to Lord Hanuman. The 41-year-old Hanuman temple witnesses scores of devotees on a daily basis, donning a sacred orange thread around their right wrists, a coconut in their hands and a prayer on their lips. Here’s why you must visit this Hanuman Temple in Bangalore.
Karya Siddhi Anjaneya Temple Is A Wish-Fulfilling Temple In Bangalore
Lord Hanuman is the eternal devotee of Lord Rama. He was instrumental in helping Lord Rama fulfil his desire of rescuing Sita from the clutches of Ravana in Lanka. Lord Hanuman with the help of the vanar sena ( army of monkeys) built the Ram Setu— a bridge made of floating stones, embedded with the name ‘Rama’.
So, just like Lord Hanuman fulfilled Lord Rama’s wishes, Lord Hanuman in Karya Siddhi Anjaneya Temple is believed to fulfil the wishes of his devotees. The name Karya meant efforts of devotees and Siddhi means fulfilled. So, Karya Siddhi truly is a wish-fulfilling temple.
Constructed in an octagonal shape, this Hanuman temple in Bangalore was consecrated by Sri Ganapathi Sacchidananda Swamiji. It has a monolithic Hanuman idol that weighs 200 tonnes. Around 18 sculptors created this idol over a course of 10 months. The entrance of the temple has a 40-feet tall Hanuman statue greeting devotees. It’s a sight to behold.

To fulfil your wish, you must, first of all, get a special coconut from the temple.

Hold the coconut allotted to you and be seated in front of the divine deity. With the coconut in your hand, look into the deity’s powerful eyes and whisper your wish. Be as specific as possible about your wish.
