About Bala Hanuman Temple
Bala Hanuman Temple is a Hanuman shrine on the south-east bank of Lakhota (Ranmal) Lake in Jamnagar. Devotees taking turns have chanted the Ram Dhun, 'Shri Ram, Jai Ram, Jai Jai Ram', here day and night without a break since Sant Prembhikshuji Maharaj began it on 1 August 1964. The unbroken chant was listed in the Guinness Book of Records in 1982 and 1988.
