The temple of Lord Nrushinghnath is only 45 ft (14 m) high. It is divided into two parts; the first being the seat of the Lord – a short, raised narrow plinth and the other Jaga Mohan (the antechamber) having three gates and is supported by four pillars, the like found nowhere in Odisha. The rocks used in the Jaga Mohan pillars are of a rare kind. They are not seen in the Gandhamardan hills. Believed that, from far-off places, Baijal Dev had brought them. With a soft rubbing, these rocks begin to scintillate, to a degree. While entering the inner-sanctum, one can see the rock statues of Nav Grahas (the Nine planets of Astrology) in a line. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Papaharini">Papaharini</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Bargarh&action=edit&section=26" title="Edit section: Papaharini"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The main perennial flow of Gandhamardan is <i>Papaharini</i>, literally meaning, <i>destroyer of sins</i>.
