Guest guest Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 Dear All, There is an update to my Blog with a travelogue on Visit to Padavedu Temples <http://shanthiraju.wordpress.com/2008/05/26/padavedu/> * A scenic village surrounded on all sides by Jawadu Hills, river, paddy and plantain fields * TVS has adopted the village and is maintaining all the temples very cleanly – it is one of the cleanest temple places I have ever seen There are more than 10 ancient temples of 12th century: * Renugambal Temple is one of the important Sakthi Sthalams * Ramar is seen in a meditative posture with `Chin mudhra' in Sri Yoga Ramachandra moorthy temple * Sri Varadharaja Perumal temple and Sri Ammayappar temple were once buried under the sand and have been excavated and renovated * In Subramanya Swamy temple, Lord Subramania is seen standing on his peacock. Legend has it that Lord Subramania was conferred the title " Deva Senapathi " only on this hill top at the behest of Goddess Renugambal. * Sri Lakshmi Narsimhar temple is having Goddess Laskhmi seated on the right lap of Lord Narasimhar (usually She will be on the left lap) * Kailasa Vinayagar temple where the Vinayagar is about 5.5 feet high * Somasundareswar Temple where Lord Shiva is seen with Uma devi in human form but unfortunately in a vandalized condition. * Sri Venugopla Swamy Temple that is on a picturesque hill en route thick and beautiful forest with a few wooden bridges * Vel Temple, where `Vel' consecrated by Siddhar Bhogar is present * Veera Anjaneyar temple where there is a beautiful 8 feet tall Anjaneyar Regards, Raju Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
