శీర్షాసునుడై శివుడు కొలువైన ఆలయం sriparvathishakthieswaraswami.

శీర్షాసనంలో మహాశివుడు అదీ సతీ, పుత్ర సమేతుడైన ఆలయం శక్తీశ్వర ఆలయం. ఇలాంటి ఆలయం మరొకటి ఎక్కడా వుండి వుండకపోవచ్చు. స్వయంభువుడిగా శివుడు వెలసిన శక్తీశ్వర ఆలయం పశ్చిమ గోదావరి జిల్లా భీమవరానికి 4 కి.మీ. దూరంలో గల యనమదుర్రు గ్రామంలో కలదు.
ఈ శివాలయం ఎంతో ప్రత్యేకమైంది..

శివాలయాలలో స్వామి లింగరూపంలో దర్శనమిస్తాడు. కానీ శక్తీశ్వరాలయంలో మాత్రం శివుడు పార్వతీ సమేతుడై, ఒడిలో కుమారస్వామితో విగ్రహ రూపంలో దర్శనమిస్తాడు. ఇది ఈ ఆలయానికున్న ప్రత్యేకత. శివపార్వతులు వెలసిన పీఠం ఏకపీఠం కావడం ఒక విశేషమైనతే, ఇదంతా ఒక పెద్ద శిలగా భూగర్భంలో నుంచి చొచ్చుకుని వుండడం మరొక అద్భుతం. శక్తీశ్వరుడు ఈ ఆలయంలో శీర్షాశనంలో తపోనిష్టుడై ఉండడం మరో మహాద్భుతం. జటాఝూటం, నొసట విభూతి రేఖలు, నాగాభరణము స్వామి వారి విగ్రహంలో స్పష్టంగా కనపడతాయి.
స్థల పురాణం 

శంబరుడనే రాక్షసుని సంహరించేందుకు యముడు శివున్ని ప్రార్థించాడు. ఆ సమయంలో శివుడు యోగముద్రలో ఉండండతో పార్వతీ అమ్మవారు తన శక్తిని వరంగా అనుగ్రహించి యముడి బలాన్ని గొప్పగా పెంచింది. ఆ శక్తితో యముడు శంబరుణ్ని సంహరించాడు. యమధర్మరాజు కోరిక మేరకు శీర్షాసన స్థితిలో ఉన్న శివుడు అమ్మవారితో సహా ఈ క్షేత్రమునందు వెలిశాడు అనీ చరిత్రం. 

శక్తిగుండం ప్రత్యేకత

ఈ ఆలయానికి తూర్పువైపున శక్తి గుండం అనే చెరువు వుంది. కాశీలోని గంగ అంతర్వాహినిగా ప్రవహించి ఈ చెరువులో కలుస్తుందని భక్తుల విశ్వాసం. ఈ చెరువు తవ్వకాలలో సర్పం ఆకారంలో ఉన్న ఆరు అడుగుల శిల ఒకటి బయటపడింది. ఈ శిలను సుబ్రహ్మణ్యేశ్వరునిగా భావించి ఆలయంలో ప్రతిష్ఠించి, ఆనాటి నుంచి పూజాదికాలు నిర్వహిస్తున్నారు. ఈ శక్తి గుండంలోని నీటితోనే స్వామి వారికి అభిషేకాలు, పూజలు నిర్వహిస్తారు. పూర్వం ఒకసారి ఈ చెరువును శుభ్రపరిచే క్రమంలో ఈ నీటిని వాడడం ఆపి, ఆ సమయంలో స్వామి వారి నైవేద్యానికి సమీపంలోని మరొక చెరువు నుంచి నీటిని తెచ్చి ప్రసాదం తయారు చేయడానికి ప్రయత్నించగా అది ఎంతకీ ఉడకలేదు. అప్పుడు శక్తి గుండంలోనే చిన్న గొయ్యిని తవ్వి, ఆ నీటితో ప్రసాదం తయారు చేయగా వెంటనే ఉడికింది. అప్పటి నుంచి ఇప్పటివరకూ స్వామి వారికి శక్తి గుండంలోని నీటినే ఉపయోగిస్తారు.

charitra in english

OM NAMAH SIVAYA

Yamadharma raja. We know about him. He is the judge in the narkha lokam. He will punish people who were very bad, doing bad things in their life or bad people by karma. So we feel very fear about him. In all living beings on the earth only some very rare living beings pray heartily for him. Snake and dog only find his surrounding when he came to take athma of dead people to the earth. But what is the relationship between yama and srishakthieswara swami?
Lord Siva is known as arudhra. Lord Shiva is glorified as the Supreme Lord. He is ashes lover. He gives life to a living being. When the life come to end he is the first person who takes our athma. After then only athma goes to the hands of yama. By our karma. He will follow the instructions of lord Siva only. So people of 99% were fear about yama and his punishments.
Once a time. yama feels very bad & deject about his works. So he prays to lord Siva about this matter. Lord Siva replied to yama please listen carefully. I shall tell you a very wonderful secret what will go on “after you killing a devil you come to me and you will put me in a great place and pray as god”. So all people will feel you as” yama means not only punishing people (athma). But also he gives a great way to people to cure a very dangerous disease’s of the people.
On this, we are going to know a great history of yanamadurru sri parvathi sametha sri shakthieswara swami”. Lord Siva is in reverse position in human body structure (in yoga) and with his wife parvathi devi in her hands 3months child as kumara swami. In one place. (eka petam with her family).

PREFACE

“Yanamadurru” when we hearing this name, every people telling that ‘lord Siva is in reverse in position’ this name is popular in now a days ….yanamadurru is in bhimavaram (mandal), west godavari district, Andhra Pradesh. It is 5 k.m. to bhimavaram by k.g.r.l. collage road. Here threthayuga’s temple has been found out when digging a water tank in 100 year’s back. They find out swami statuette (figure). Its looks like lord Siva is in reverse position in human body structure (in yoga) and with his wife parvathi devi in his hands 3months baby as kumara swami. In one place. (eka petam with her family). It means lord Siva is there with his
family. Shakthieswara is one of the name of lord Siva. We can see this name in Siva (namavali) here he is with parvathi devi because of that
he is calling here sri parvathi sametha srishakthieswara swami. Generally
where ever we see lord Siva is in lingam shape (rupam).only in Tamilnadu state in Chennai city. at T. nagar, Agsthyaeswara swami is in body structure although there is a difference in between two.

SWAMI HISTORY

Long ago, Yanamadurru (village) is called as yamunapuram in thousands of years back. This place is ruled by yamadharma raja. In this place there is a dangerous devil (rakshesha). His name is sambirudu. He is very dangerous and bad. He is disturbing & devastating the yoga’s & pujas of munnindra’s. So they went to yamadharma raja and asked him to kill the devil. But already yama has been defeated so many times in the hands of sambira. So yama started with devotedness prayer (tapassu) for lord Siva to get the power to him to kill the devil. But lord Siva is in yoga. He didn’t find prayer’s of yama. But parvathi devi has seen the prayer of yama. And she impressed the prayer of yama’s and she gives a great power to yama. With the help of parvathi devi’s power. yama killed devil sambira. Yama feel so happy when he kills Sambira. yama Really proud & obeisant to the help of parvathi devi and he felt “I did this work only the greatness of paravathi devi. To this great victory, he put a name to this place as yamapuri as victory symbol (after changed into yamunapuram, yanamadurru). He pray to lord

LORD SIVA, PARVATHI DEVI

Hye lord… you must came and settle her in this place then only in future there is no chance to devils to step here or come around this place. Parvathi devi impressed yama’s prayer and agreed to come to this place with her husband lord Siva with out disturbing her yoga (diksha) lord Siva is in reverse position and with his 3 months child kumara swami. She came with her family and settled here.

EVIDENCE OF HISTORY

There is an evidence of this. In west godavari district narsapuram area
near to Bay of Bengal. there is an island ‘sambaravi’ named. In this island
some details tells us that sambaravi circulates is true. Devil sambarudu is in the time of ‘Sriram’ threthayuga so we can know easily that this temple has a long history life in Indian History.

STRUCTURE OF SWAMI IN TEMPLE

Generally we see lord Siva as in lingam shape (rupam) or standing or sitting positions. But at yanamadurru temple he is in reverse in position in yoga (dheksha). Head touch to floor and on up, eyes, after chest, stomach, legs, (feet shows up to sky). Without disturbing the yoga of lord Siva, parvathi devi came to here with lord Siva & 3 month’s child as kumara swami with great powers. As she as a pregnancy he didn’t care about herself. (a pregnant lady don’t come out from house up to 6 months)She breaks the rules and came to save people. parvathi devi came here with his 3 months child as kumara swami. Here we can see parvathi devi’s own structure only in this one and only place only.

WONDERFUL THINGS IN TEMPLE

Yanamadurru “Sri parvathi sametha sri shakthieswara swami temple” is a place of wonders. If we see this place we really surprise we can’t believe it. East direction of the temple we can see a water tank its name is ‘shakthi gundham’. This water only is use to swami to abishekhas and naivedyas. It has a great important story to this ‘shakthi gundham’. Once a time devasthanam want to repair this water tank and prepare to build a wall in around the tank. So they take out off all the water in tank. So no water in this tank. Temple pujari(brahmana) want to prepare naivedyam(food to swami) to swami so he took some other tank water and start to prepare naivedya time is going on but naivedya is not ready. He tried so many times but he failed. After some time he go to‘shakthi gundham’. In water tank there is no water its dung soil (burdha). He collect some dung soil(burdha mati) and make around like a small tank shape make a free space in between in the dung soil (burdha mahti) then after some time some water has came in to free space. He takes the water and use water in naivedya in a short time naivedya is ready. On that onwords only shakthi gundam water is using to naivedya.
‘shakthi gundham’ water is not an ordinary water. It is the part of ‘kasi ganga’ river. It is clarified by geologists committee of Hyderabad. About this ‘shakthi gundham’ yanamadurru “sri parvathi sametha sri shakthieswara swami temple” is popular as “dhakshina kasi” also….
Here skhethra palakudu is Sri kumara swami it means ‘all in this place (salvation)’.
To watch & save this temple in shakthigundham two nag snakes (king cobra) are there up to 2003 march. If we go and see in ‘shakthi
gundham’ in bhramma muhurtam (time .00to .00).we can see the two snakes they stand on water and take bath 3 times in opposite direction and they swim around the tank for one time in water. And came near to swami and pray to swami and again go in to tank. For nagula chavithi (snake festival)festival before night these 2 snakes came in to temple and build snake’s houses. in morning lot of people go to temple put some milk in snake houses and do pujas (its really a great thing there is an evidence today also people are there to tell this who are really participate in this festival to tell this . In 1995 in swami’s uthsav (celebrations)one old man unfortunately killed one nag snake. And suddenly he turns into a blind man. Second nag snake was very aged so in 1998 year ending he also died. Present there are two another nag snakes in devasthanam area. There is a special to these two snakes if any people have seen them. They stretch their head (hood) and beat to the floor and die themself. Only this type of snakes are belong to vasuki family’s breed they also do same as when a human being see them. The feel and disappoint and die them self only. By this we can tell these snakes also belong to vasuki family breed. These snakes came to temple on special days and turn around the swami with their body.

INTERESTING THINGS

In east direction door of the temple left side corner we can see ‘nandi’ statuette (swamis vehicle) with out front legs. It has a great story. Before British rulers came to India. Turkish came to occupy India. At that time Turkish battalion came to this place and trying to occupy. they surrounded the temple. One king entered into the temple and stands near to nandi to see his sharpness of talwar (big knife). he cut off the nandi (rock statuette) mouth and left leg…... then suddenly a lot of diamonds came out from the body of ‘nandi’ then he think “only in the body of animal this much of diamonds are there….then what is in the swami? (main permid)……” He takes step forward to swami and cut off swami upper part of the statuette…..then suddenly temple roof fell down on the king. King Was died. We can know this by history of temple. We can see the ancient rocks and statuettes build by yama in the back of the temple. After attack of Turkish, temple has fall down. After some years later people build new temple to swami. They move aside old temple part and put it in the back of temple. We can see it in the back of the temple. In the day of karthika purnima karthika joythi (a fire with high bright light) putting on the temple from so many years. in the time of britishers…. mogalturru samsthan maharaj(king) he see joythi of swami every year from his palace(castle) and prays to swami……

IN PURANAS

The great poet ‘maha kavi kalidas’ his book ‘kumara sambavam’ in this book, we can know about yanamadurru shakthieswara swami. He composes nearly 68 slokas (suthii mala) about the greatness of swami. ‘Boja raj’ visits this place and prays to srishakthieswara swami. We can see know this by kumara sambavam in 155 adhyayam 13 svargam. Maha
kavi kalidas came and visit swami and pray ‘shakti ardhan’ to swami. We can see this. in this book.

SHAKTHI GUNDHAM

After killing of ‘devil sambirdu’. parvathi devi told (order) to yama and give graces “who is feeling of death (death fear) or unhealthy and suffering with dangerous diseases…..if they take bath or drink the water of shakthi gundham. They get well soon & feel better & so happy…..It removes all lamentation and gives salvation to even sinners. this water has potency I proclaimed this today on words....”as grace given by parvathi devi to yama. This grace only today also shakthi gundham giving a great power &freeness, working as a medicine to the people. All of the sinful reactions due to wearing ashes and bones will all be destroyed and everything will become auspicious due to by drinking this water. It shall destroy all sin. We will be free from all contaminations.…..
In 1909 one kasi pandit came to her with the book “kasi kandham ,kavyalu” written by great poet srinadhad. He read the book in this place and preached to the people about shakthieswara swami. This temple is very ancient than “pancharams skhethras” by this we can know about the greatness of the temple. It’s already clarified by archaeology department.
So who were suffering with dangerous diseases unhealthy, physical
feeling and fear of death…….etc. once visit swami and take a bath or drink water of shakthi gundham.do pujas and abishekham to swami they definitely feel better. (some people will do after taking a bath and with
Wet clothes go back to temple and sleep on the back of temple (pray to
lord sive plz excuse our prayer) for one minute and take a walk 3time around the temple and see swami…..) People believe that if we do like this our prayer will done…. Devasthanam do utsvas(celebrations) in special days of swami…..Siva lilas are great. We can’t imagine the greatness & wonders of swami……..om namha sivayya..
