SRIKALAHASTI TEMPLE GOPURAM COLLAPSE DUE TO HUGE CRACK. SRIKALAHASTI TEMPLE IS FAMOUS FOR RAHU AND KETU POOJA

does that mean rahu and ketu are separated now?

now rah and ketu pooja in temple is no use?

possible death of king of the region?

what is prediction ?

500 Yrs old world celebrated Sri Kalahasthi Temple Rajagopuram standing tall at 135 ft, built by Vijayanagara King Sri Krishna Devaraya collapsed on Wednesday (26th May 2010) evening at around 8 PM.

However the main temple was not affected.

Some devotees, a couple of security Guards and 200 monkeys feared buried under the debris.

Major crack was noticed three days ago and the authorities evacuated the shops and other establishments around the Gopuram, avoiding a major disaster.

For the past 10 yrs the Gopuram was developing cracks and stones and clay pellets were falling. Despite repeated public anger against the AP Governments inaction and alarm raised by the media, no concrete action was taken by the Government.

The Temple withstood 500 years of lightening, thunderbolt, cyclone hits, but finally caved in due to Government apathy and inaction.  The same Government alerted all the District Collectors in AP, to follow up all the Masjids and Madrasa’s in the state for repair and renovations with sanctioned funds,  but sheer apathy shown towards Hindu Temples in the State.

This RajaGopuram was built in fine clay and stones by the Vijayanagara King Sri Krishna Devaraya and  stood as a testimony of Indian architecture. It was repeatedly hit by lightening over 100 years, and the first crack developed way back in 1976.

None of the National News papers has reported this tragedy on the front pages except DC and Andhra Jyothi.

The people in the temple town fear the collapse of the Gopuram as an indication of bad omen in offing, for the state or country and lighting two oil lamps  in front of their houses.

Earlier the Devotees before entering the temple used to take bath in the nearby river Swarnamukhi River and enter the temple through the passage under the Gopuram. The temple is known as 'Rahu-Ketu' temple, 'The Dakshin Kailash'. This Teple is one among the Pancha Bootha's and this temple was devoted to 'VAAYU'(WIND) and the other four being 'Thiruvanaikaval' Temple,'AnnamalayirTemple','EkambareswararTemple',and 'Chidambaram' Temple.


When Hindu Temple collections running in thousands of crores in Southern States of India, let us pray God to give strength to Hindus and the bureaucracy to develop pity and compassion towards Hindu heritage and take timely action to protect our heritage.

Kalahasthi temple tower collapses
Posted on May 29, 2010 at 12:09 pm

An important event happened recently, that creates fear in mind of religious people that some calamity is falling soon as tower collapse is bad omen.
The chart for time of collapse is as below.

This Gopuram was reportedly built in 1516 on the right side of main temple by great emperor Srikrisna Devaraya.

As is well known there are five temples in south which are said to control five Tatwa in form of siva. One in AP and 4 in Tamilnadu. Most astrologers are aware Kalahasti controls Vayu tatwa. Meaning of Sri kala hasti is said to be a combination of Sarpa and Elephant. Thus it is one of the most revered temples. The other four temples are at Tiruvannamalai controlling Fire element, Chidambaram (without linga representing akash element next at Thiruvanikkaval controlling water element and last is kancheepuram controlling Earth element.

Now in this background falling of any building is undoubtedly a bad omen but here it is the fact reported that Main temple is not affected. Is it not the grace of shiva?.

Now let me come to Gopuram.

It is gateway in simple terms. It has lived for about 494 years .May be 500 years ago muhurta for construction could have been chosen.No structure on earth can be permanent, We do not have data when muhurtam for gopuram was chosen and gateway constructed.

We can always find astrological coincidences for events and this event is no exception.But the fact remains for last ten years gateway was slowly slowly falling neither Government nor trust cared to take help of modern technology advances and now we say it is bad omen.

one can justify but the fact remains Lord shiva is kind and will spare humanity from calamity .

Gopuram  is human construction, So normally one can assume it has no soul. So chart of collapse cannot be compared to Niryan ( chart at time of death ) chart for humans.

Mayamatam describes gopuram being maximum of seven stories. It is said that Cidambaram gateway dated 13 th century also has seven stories.

Gopur has similar importance but I am not sure if it is part of deity as several parts of temples are treated as body parts of deity installed. Not being a part of main temple , logically it could not be a body part of deity.

However in the chart of fall, VIII and XII houses are vacant. SUN lord of IX is in VI house. Pratyadhi devata is shiva himself. It is accidental fall for neglect by humans. So no fear to life of humans and animals on Earth could be deduced.
