RAMA PRIYA - MELKOTE TEMPLE

🕉️🙏Jai Shriram🙏🕉️

SHORT DHARMIC STORY

of the Evening, 25/8/23:


PRABHU SRIRAM after killing Ravana, upon Asking by Vibhishana gave him, the Vishnu idols he worshipped


SREERAMA was then given beautiful new Idols of Vishnu, along with Sridevi and Bhoodevi by BRAHMA. Those idols were the one which manifested for his worship in the beginning of KRUTHA YUGA.


SREERAMA was so enchanted by the idols, that those idols were soon called RAMA PRIYA (The favorite of Prabhu SriRam).

They were worshipped for long by SREERAMA, and were later given to his elder son KUSHA, who worshipped them with all devotion.


KUSHA'S daughter, KANAKA MALINI, when she was married to YADUSHEKHARA, of YADU DYNASTY (dynasty in which Srikrishna was born) She was presented with these idols as her dowry.


Hence RAMA PRIYA, came from SURYA VAMSHA to CHANDRA VAMSHA. They were passed on through generations, and were worshipped by SRIKRISHNA, and BALARAMA.


During MAHABHARATA time, BALARAMA, who went on a pilgrimage to South India, was fascinated by the temple in MELKOTE, which has a similar idol called THIRU NARAYANA. Later, he presented RAMA PRIYA to MELKOTE temple. After the invasion of Bharatha by the Muslim kings, RAMA PRIYA was stolen along with enormous wealth of the temple, and was recovered by RAMANUJACHARYA, in KALIYUGA, and reinstated in the temple once again.


In this way, RAMA PRIYA idol in MELKOTE, which is still to-date worshipped, has witnessed, and has been worshipped in all the four yugas, KRUTA YUGA TRETA YUGA, DWAPARA YUGA, AND KALI YUGA.
