Karmanghat Hanuman temple Story 

About 400 years later, Aurangzeb sent out his armies to all corners of the country for further expansion of Mughal Empire.

At this temple, the army couldn’t even step close to the compound wall. When the general reported this to Aurangzeb, he himself went with a crow bar to break down the temple.

At the threshold of the temple, he heard a deafening roar rumbling like thunder, and the crowbar slipped from his hands as he was shaking in fear. Then he heard a voice in the heavens “Mandir todna hai rajan, to kar man ghat” . which is why the place got the name kar-man-ghat.

Lord Anjaneya sits peacefully meditating and blessing devotees, as Dhyana Anjaneya Swamy.
