VEMULAVADA |
|
|
| The God in the same
night appeared before him, and told him that a shrine of Lord Siva by name Rajeswara was
at the bottom of that Dharmagundam and that the king should bring it up and consecrate it
on the banks of the tank for purposes of worship. The king accordingly searched for the
Linga in the Dharmagundam, got it, and consecrated the God on the banks of the same tank.
Since that time, the God is known as Rajeswaraswami. It is also said in this connection
that Indra, who was also suffering from the sin of Brahmahatya Dosha due to his killing
the demon Vritrasura, was also relieved of his great sin only after bathing in
Dharmagundam according to the instructions of Brihaspati. |
