Historical story
Once a king went to the forest to hunt, named Raja Pratap Rudra. When the king was tired of hunting in the forest, he was resting under a tree. The king then heard the chanting of Lord Rama's name. The king went from where the sound of chanting of Rama was coming. The king was surprised that in the midst of such a dense forest, he saw a stone idol of Lord Hanuman, out of which the sound of chanting named Rama was coming. The king bowed the idol of Lord Hanuman and returned to his kingdom. At night, Lord Hanuman appeared to the king in his dream and asked him to build a temple.
The king built the Hanuman temple. The temple was named 'Dhyananjaya Swamy' temple, as Lord Hanuman was meditating on Sri Rama. Nearly 400 years later, Aurangzeb sent his forces to all corners of the country for further expansion of the Mughal Empire. Aurangzeb's army could not even step into the temple premises. When the General gave this notice to Aurangzeb, he himself went with an iron rod to break the temple. As Aurangzeb went to the threshold of the temple, he heard a deafening roar like thunder, Aurangzeb was so frightened by the sound that an iron rod slipped from his hand. Then Aurangzeb heard a voice in the sky, 'Temple is to break Rajan, Kar Man Ghat'. Which translates to 'If you want to break the temple, then harden your heart, O Raja', this temple got the name Karmanghat Hanuman Temple.
And till today, Lord Anjaneya meditates peacefully and blesses the devotees, meditating as Anjani Swami.
