Devotion - Spiritual Life - Place of Peace
Hi Guysss,
Today I came with a lots of devotion this place changed some
of my beliefs and I’m so eagerly waiting to share my experiences over this…..
Anantha Padmanabhaswamy temple which was located nearby Bheemunipatnam,bounded with the mandals
of Anandapuram. Actually during my
journey over to this place I feel interested over the stories behind the temple
and was so pleased to hear about from an old lady who served her entire life
under the temple…. So touchy……..
Before our independence this temple which was been allotted
3000 acres by Pusapati royal family of Vizianagaram and also Raja
Sagi a well known Royal family in Pandrangi.
Pusapati Vijaya Rama
Gajapathi Raju of Vizianagaram kingdom and Raja Sagi Rama Chandra Raju of the Pandrangi royal family the two
kshatriya kings who were against British governance and refused to pay taxes to
these Britishers……The Battle of Padmanabham was fought on July 9,1794 between the British led by Colonel Pendergast who
was sent by Madras governor and our
Kshatriya king where the king was killed along with nearby 800 soliders by
this britisher hence due to lack of advanced weapons. After the death of
Pusapati his son was guarded by the Raja
Sagi until he was crowned.
The beauty of this temple could be well defined after
crossing a huge climb, people feel to cross the steep stairs a huge task for
them but to make a darshan of god is
not an easy task but step with devotion the almighty help you to cross the
lengthy journey so smoothly……. The temple is covered with a big gopuram as all
the temples genuinely have in a shape of small pyramid…….. The mandapam over
here is not so decorated it needs a more
development, but still we could find ancient beauty….
The Vizianagaram king Krishnadevaraya
built his pillar of Victory close to this temple. Actually the pusapatis were
the well known chief people of the region….. which was under control of
Gajapathis of kalinga and continues to
be trustees of this place….
The Natives of Anantha
Padmanabhaswamy temple feel blessed for being there hence the place was
surrounded with Peace and greenery everywhere. Basically the place is little
unpopular but the people if come to know would not ignore to visit or even
revisit.
The beauty of Place comes when it was end of November(Karthika
masam) when 1000 of diyas lighted at a time. Mostly Vaishyas would revisit
here….. because they were deeply connected with Lord Vishnu. Here Adi
sesha(Padmanabha swamy) his smile seems he welcome to all his devotees and
posture of relaxation attracts devotees towards….. Sridevi goddess of properity
and Bhudevi the goddess of Earth resides either of his sides…..
Guys these are so much connected to me that again I wanna
revisit to the place where no place for artificial and filled with natural relief…
