Ever since my mother got to know about the sacred Panaka Narasimhaswamy temple from one of our aunt's , she almost made up her mind to visit the oldest spiritual spot of the Guntur district. And it happened recently so we bring you some unbelievable miracles of the place (Mangalagiri temple).
Here, the Vishnu idol, is in the form of Narasimha (Human form with the face of Lion). This avatar led to the killing of the demon king Hiranya Kashyap.
The miracle is that that devotees offer litres of Panaka (Jaggery Juice) to the Lord. The deity accepts exactly half of it leaving the rest to those offered and the most interesting thing here is that that the Jaggery juice is fed to the lord all day and the place is, surprisingly, free from the sticky floors, insects, mites or any kind of dirt, India is truly incredible!
The temple is 12 Kms away from Vijayawada (the place where Arjuna, the warrior prince got his Pashupatastra from Lord Shiva which led to the win of the Pandava army in Mahabharatha).
Other sightseeing places include Krishna Barrage, Durga Devi Temple. Take a look at the Mangalagiri photos.
