Guest guest Posted April 18, 2005 Report Share Posted April 18, 2005 Please does anyone know where in South India is the arca of Sri Ramacandra still existing as Srila Prabhupada mentions in the following excerpt: "So at that time, there was a statue of Rämacandra which was being worshiped in the family from Mahäräja Iksväku. Mahäräja Iksväku, the son of Manu, happens to be the forefather of the family in which Rämacandra appeared. So he was devotee of Lord Räma, and he was worshiping the statue of Lord Räma. So that statue was being worshiped by the family one after another. But when Rämacandra was actually present He kept that statue in the closet of the room, and when this brähmana approached and Rämacandra was informed by Laksmana that he is so steady and strong in his vow, so Rämacandra ordered that he may be delivered that statue so that in My absence he can offer respect to the statue and do with this. That form, I mean to say, statue, or arca of Rämacandra is still existing in South India. It is being worshiped from that time."Srila Prabhupada in Hawaai on March 27th, 1969.
