Shobha(usha) gowri

Parasuramesvara temple

Gudimallam

Chittoor
A world heritage monument-close to Thirupathi-Tirumala
The linga is about 14 feet high and is so uniquely carved in order to make it look real!!
It has all the three lords carved on it and at what is the fore of the lings is Brahma-with Vishnu in the middle
The temple is circular in shape and once a year the rays of the sun fall directly on the lord
Parasuramam was supposed to have installed the linga/or worshipped it and prayed to it and in order to bathe the Lord was supposed to have connected it to the Ganges through an underground canal
Once a year water rushes in through the opening and the linga gets covered in water and later just drains away
Since it is a preserved monument no photos and no poojas
