Legend

Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji who has dedicated His life to our Sanatana Dharma, preaches the Bhakti marga (the path of Devotion) and the greatness of our Vedic heritage. When Sri Sri Muralidhara Swamiji visited Bangalore, His holiness happened to visit the land accompanied by a few devotees from Bangalore. The devotees expressed their wish to have a patasala and temple constructed at that site. The moment they mentioned it, Sri Swamiji went into a deep meditative state for a while after which He said that the entire area was filled with Lord Anjaneya's divine vibrations. Just as Sri Swamiji said that, the most amazing thing occurred! A cloud in the exact shape of Sri Anjaneya carrying the Sanjeevani Mountain had formed in the sky. The few fortunate devotees who witnessed this spectacle were thrilled and were speechless to say the least. From that moment on, there was no looking back as Sri Anjaneya had arrived.

Architecture

The temple structure reflects Orissa style architecture. A beautiful golden 'kalasam' mounted on top of a reminds one of Puri Jagannath Temple. The majestic yet beautiful form of Lord Sundara Anjaneya leaves one breathless.
