The temple of Jagannathpuri is such a temple where the mysteries beat even science. But there are some such mysteries around the temple that you will be surprised to know. One such anecdote is the mystery of Hanuman ji. Let us know this secret in detail.
According to a legend, when the idol of Lord Jagannath was installed in the Jagannathpuri temple, the ocean also desired to see him. The ocean entered the temple several times to see the Lord. When the ocean entered the temple, the temple would have suffered a lot. Samudra tried to do this many times. In such a situation, seeing the damage of the temple, the devotees appealed to the Lord for help. Then Lord Jagannath ji sent Hanuman ji to control the ocean. Pawansut Hanuman ji tied the ocean. This is the reason why the sea of Puri is always calm.
After this one day the ocean applied a trick and instigates Hanuman ji to have darshan. Hearing this, Hanumanji goes to see Jagannathji. The ocean also starts going to the temple behind Hanuman. Sagar again damaged the temple. Then Lord Jagannathji got upset with this habit of Hanuman ji and tied him with a golden fetter. Even today there is an ancient temple of the prisoner Hanumanji on the beach of Jagannathpuri.
