LORD MANJUNATH OF DHARMASTHALA

THE PLACES OF WORSHIP 

Now Dharmasthala possesses seven separate temples - one for the Chandranathaswamy, who was woshipped by the venerable Perggades first, and four for the Dharma Daivas, one for Manjunathaswamy and final one for Annappa, who became instrumental in making this shrine into All-Faith temple of eternal importance and universal adoration. It is befitting then that he too should receive adoration. In the most fitting manner. Hence his presence in a separate shrine. Kuduma, the place once dominated by one temple for Jains, now proudly boasts of having seven, the most veration - worthy temples, catering to the needs of all people. All but due to the inexplicable and inestmable munificence rained by the Dharmadevasthas on the Perggade couple, who made their lives immortal by their inimitable spiritualardour and religous fervour. As the Dharmadevasthas using the Perggades their mouth - pieces despensed justice and adorers for boons swelled to unimaginable proportions, as fame went beyond the bounds of Mallarmadi village.
