I have visisted the temple only once. There is a story shared by my mother regarding the temple. The idol is decorated only once a year in temple as the story goes that the lord used to be decorated everyday in chandan and used to look so handsome that a lady desired her husband to be as handsome as the god. The minute the lady had such thoughts, the idol turned black. So to this day, the idol is smeared with chandan only once a yearrnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05547382021284170323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4469680352958652051.post-10349967878716200692011-02-20T17:20:21.139+05:302011-02-20T17:20:21.139+05:30Sridharan, thanksSridharan, thankschitrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11162975193030085486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4469680352958652051.post-62951997213577995622011-02-20T17:20:02.112+05:302011-02-20T17:20:02.112+05:30Martina, thank you so much.Martina, thank you so much.chitrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11162975193030085486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4469680352958652051.post-57254020558611053352011-02-19T22:34:22.275+05:302011-02-19T22:34:22.275+05:30Beautiful photo rendition of a lovely temple..Beautiful photo rendition of a lovely temple..Sridharanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02743784726121884974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4469680352958652051.post-9783050795914143722011-02-19T02:49:46.311+05:302011-02-19T02:49:46.311+05:30Fascinating place, thanks for showing us!
