SRIKALAHASTI GNANAPRASUNAMBIKA AALAYAM 

THE TEMPLE: 

Mother Jnana Prasunambika's shrine lies adjacent, but faces east. It has also Mukha mantapa and an antarla of huge dimensions. The beautiful tall image of the Mother in standing posture exudes compassion through her broad eyes and beckons instant veneration. She confers several boons like santana prapti, dushta grahanivarana, together with wisdom and health on offering soulful prayer to the Mother.

Almost all the devotees visit the Durga shrine, Murugan and Kannappa temples built atop the hillocks lying to the south and north of the main temple. There is a beautiful Panchamukha linga enshrined in a small shrine a top a small hill to the south of the main temple, which is visit-worthy.

The temple lies on the eastern bank of river Swarna mukhi and is very near to bus stand, and at 2 km. off railway station on Tirupati-Gudur line.
