A TEMPLE FOR RAMA AND LAKSHMANA |

| Huge
Peepal Tree Another striking feature is the huge peepal tree in front of the shrine on the east. It is a rocky place, the rocks extending right upto the srikoil inside. No soil is visible around, yet the peepal has grown majestically with its roots spreading all over the place. The tree stands as though welcoming the visitors. A little to the south of the eastern gateway is the Hanuman shrine. It is a magnificent 5-foot stone image covered with silver raiment. Devotees first worship this guardian deity before entering the temple chanting: Yatra yatra Raghunathakeertanam Tatra tatra Kritamastakaanjalim Bhashpavari Paripoornalochanam Maarutim namata raakshasaantakam |
