At the Kolhapur branch of the Shree Raja Rajeshwar Devasthan Foundation, we are dedicated to fostering spirituality and preserving cultural heritage through the construction of sacred temples. Our mission is to create spaces of worship and community gathering that honor the divine and uphold the traditions of our ancestors.
Our vision is to build a new Shiva Mandir (Shivalam) of Panchamahabhootham, with distinctive and unique features, right here in Kolhapur. Inspired by the rich history and tradition of temple construction, we aim to create a place of profound spiritual significance that will serve as a beacon of devotion for generations to come.
The name “Shivle” echoes the essence of Lord Shiva and originates from His divine presence. Just as the first temple in the Asian continent, the Pragatheeswarar temple, stands proudly in Thanjavur district in Tamil Nadu, our temple in Kolhapur will stand as a testament to the timeless devotion to Lord Shiva.
Behind the Moolavar in our temple, we plan to perform prana pratishta with a stone called Ashtanaga Bandham Yantra, revered for centuries and worshipped by Sage Sri Agasthiyar himself 5000 years ago. With the guidance of Sri Amarnath Swami Guruji, a direct descendant of the illustrious Raja Raja Chola, who built the Pragatheeswarar temple, we are committed to adhering to the sacred principles outlined in the Agama Shastra.
We recognize that this ambitious project requires significant effort and resources. We invite you to contribute to this noble cause, whether through financial assistance or material support. Your contributions not only help in the construction of the temple but also attract blessings from Lord Shiva himself.
Together, let us embark on this sacred journey to create a sanctuary of devotion and spiritual enlightenment right here in Kolhapur. Join us in building a legacy that will inspire and uplift the community for generations to come.
