this temple is a must see just for architectural beauty. This temple has the largest Nandi and at the rear side there are many unfinished sculptures. It is one of the main place one can get practical ideas on our Shilpa shastra in the southern Andhra. This is just 1.15 hours drive from Bangalore city - ideal for a day tour (go with food packed)
I have been thinking recently about our state of temples. They have changed their forms from being cultural and binding factors to just business centres. mostly people who are visiting the temples are doing mechanical things. how can we revive the temples as discussion forums for arts, culture, social responsibilities from being just "transactional" in nature. there are satsangas being organized in the temples, but they just follow the bhakthi movement. how can we revive usage of sanskrit, learning of vedas, and then to create a more responsible generation than ours? ideas are welcome...
just marvellous
