KALADI - THE BIRTH PLACE OF ADI
SANKARA |
|
|
| What we see at
Kaladi today stands to the sacred memory of that venerated saint, indeed an avatar of Sri
Sankara, His Holiness Sri Narasimha Bharati Swamigal, and the 33rd Acharya of Sringeri
Sarada Peetham. It was he who realized in a vision early in this century the place in
Kaladi where the remains of Aryamba were cremated. He also installed the idols of Adi
Sankara and Goddess Saradamba, the guardian deity of Sringeri. In between these shrines is
the Aryamba samadhi. To the West there is the Sri Krishna temple of Sri Sankara's
ancestral home and a Ganapati shrine. |
