Uniqueness
Its unique position, prosperity, prestige and glory emanate from
several awe some factors that send thrills in the spines of the
god-minded, when read, or heard. It is here Lord Siva is abiding in
a white fifteen-foot-high linga, installed by no other than Devendra
under the aegis of Devaguru Brihaspathi, reverentially called
Amareswaraswamy, and is soulfully worshipped since the Vedic age; it
is this holy nagar deemed one of the eighteen Saktipithas, and the
Devi worshipped as Bala Chamundika; it is here the first ancient
Andhra University was established; it is from this domineering
capital city Sathavahanas ruled; it is here lived the master
architects and designers, surpassing even Maya or Viswakarma in
artistry of plastic arts, particularly sculpture that brought
immortal fame to the state; it is this holy place passed for Triputi
due to the presence of the three covetable factors - daivam,
thirtham, kshetram.......
