Dear Sir/Madam,

I am desparately in search of a temple which is located on some hill IN or AROUND Jhansi, Uttar Pradesh.

It is called Chaarshila or Chaurshila....

Previously is was known for some Mataji's temlple, now Hanumanji is being prayed here. Ram is written on the leaf which is kept on Hanumanji's idol here.

This temple is famous for those devotees who wants to be blessed by Girl Child. They offer their prayers here especially for this reason...

The history says that Shri Ram and Sitaji's first meeting in the garden of Mithila was arranged by Hanumanji who was in the form of a Daasi.....!!!!

We need to visit this temple on a very urgent basis as it is related to my aunt's serious health problem.

Kindly contact me on an urgent basis at vpmailbag@yahoo.com.

Very Grateful,

VP
