AMARAVATHI
- AMARAMAM |
|
|
| It
is here lies the world renowned Buddha Stupas displaying the superb
craftsmanship in the sculptural art and regarded as second to none
but to itself; it is to its educational institutions students from
far off China, Japan, Siam, Tibet and Ceylon came for higher
students; it is to this kshetra many royal families emptied their
chests to beautifying with temples and Vidhyapithas; it is here fell
a big chunk of Saligram of Tarakasura, when the spear hurled by
Subrahmanya hit and split up into five parts, falling and forming
later Pancharamas; it is this Punyakshetra equated with Varanasi in
points of sanctity and granting boons by the presiding deities; it
is this divyabhumi that releases the visitors from the cycle of
births and deaths -- freeing from Punarjanmas; it is this thirtha
kshetra that assures Sivaloka for three days' stay and worshipping
Siva; it is to consecrete this land- and worship Lord Siva, river
Krishna changing its normal course from west to east, is flowing
north to south.
