dear bakthas
kindly accept my humble obeisances.i have some
questions (mainly borne out of curiosity) for which i
expect answers from the knowledgable members of the
group.the questions may look naive for most of them
but as a fledgling i would like to know them.
1. where did the vigrahas of the lord in divya desams
or for that matter any temple (ancient ones) originate
from ?were they sculpted or was it by lord's leelas?
2. why is the lord separated from His consort in most
of the temples..i mean why do we find a separate
Thayar sannidhi?
3. what  do we mean by Utsavar and Moolavar in the
temples?
regards
satish
