Introduction and History in Brief
This temple is a temple of Lord Jagannath. This temple is located in the village of Benhta, three kilometers from the headquarters of the Bhiatargaon Block of Kanpur district. It is said that the typical feature of this temple is that some drops of rain begin driping on its roof seven days before rain.
This temple has the uncanny ability to accurately forecast rainfall in the region! Villagers say that about 5 – 7 days before the onset of rains, water droplets start dripping from the monsoon patthar (monsoon stones) that have been placed thousands of years ago in the ceiling over the garbha griha.
The number and size of the water droplets is an indication of the intensity of the rainfall expected. Larger the size and number of droplets, heavier the rainfall in the region. Small size of droplets indicates scanty scattered showers or a drought like condition. No water droplets indicate severe drought that year.
Farmers in the radius of 50km assiduously prepare their land and make necessary arrangements for sowing in accordance with this forecast only. Scientists and researchers have conducted many experiments and investigations but have left flummoxed! The most fascinating aspect is that the ceiling becomes totally dry the moment it starts raining!
Although many times efforts have been made to know this secret, even after all the surveys, the archeological scientists could not find the exact timing of the temple’s construction and mystery. It is only possible to find that the last restoration of the temple was done in the 11th century.
Temple people use to follow all covid 19 protocols . Temple is surrounded by Lots of Trees and fresh air as far as environment concern.
