AMBAZHAPUZHA KRISHNA

THE TEMPLE AND ARCHAMURTHIS

This sacred temple is built in spacious grounds has all the indispensable parts and paraphernalia like that of its counterparts, like prakara gopurams, anakottal, kuttambalam, Srikoil, dwajasthambha etc. But its specialty lies in the archamurthi installed in the Srikoil. He is adored-as Unnikrishna- Balakrishna and accordingly he should have been sitting at his butter pot, or playing flute under a tree. 

Here the image resembles Parthasarathi with whip in his right hand and crunch in the left. Krishna is Krishna whether he reveals with pot or flute. His sports are to be revered, and his giving hand to be adored.
