| The local legend
has it, that, at the very same spot, where the Ramalingeswara temple stands, Lord
Parashurama lived and performed penance and tapascharya worshipping Lord Siva in his
Lingakara. There is in the temple a perennial underground force from which water always
oozes into the Garbha Griha, exactly at the spot where the Siva Lingam is consecrated. The
icon of the Lord is uncut and roughly formed and hence the popular tradition is that the
Linga is Swayambu or self manifest. |
