Ballaleshwar Vinayak - Raigarh

Located in the Raigarh district of Maharashtra, Ballaleshwar is considered to be the third among the Ashtavinayaka. The shape of this temple is in the shape of "Shri", with big ponds on both sides.

According to mythology, there lived a Seth couple named Kalyan and Indumati in the village of Pali. Their only sonBallal was a great devotee of Bhagwan Ganesha. Seth was not happy with his devotion, because his son, engrossed in devotion, did not take any special interest in business. Once Kalyan Seth angrily went out to look for Ballal, he was found in the forest worshiping Ganesha. He beat him severely and pushed him and also broke the idol of Ganesha. Seth tied him to a tree in the forest and left him saying that after being hungry and thirsty, his wisdom would come. After Seth's departure, Shri Ganesha, pleased with Ballal's devotion, appeared before him as a Brahmin. Ballal asked him to free him from bondage and asked for a boon.As a boon, Ballal requested him to establish himself in his area. Shri Ganesha fulfilled his wish and installed himself in a stone idol and then the Ballal Vinayak temple was built at that place.

According to another belief, the place of Treta Yuga named Dandakaranya was here and it is here that Adishakti Jagadamba had appeared to Shri Ram. At a distance from there is the place where the war between Ravana and Jatayu took place at the time of Sitaharan.
