Sri Bhramaramba Mallikarjuna Swamy varla Devasthanam - Hindu temple in Srisailam - Nandyal, India

One of the 12 jyotirlinga. Sacred Hindu temple. Did jalaabhisheka. No camera allowed. Language problem was there as Hindi or English speaking people are less. Evening light and sound show was excellent was in telegu but can be made out what it's depicting.

Sri Bhramaramba Mallikarjuna Seamy temple is very beautiful with full of positive vibes. It's one of the Jyothirlingas out of 12. Temple premises is well maintained and organised for devotees. It may take 30 mins to max 2 hours for Dharshan depending upon the seasons. There are facilities for early darshan also for 300 rupees. Mobile and other electronics devices are not allowed inside the temple. There are facilities to keep mobile phone and luggage's safely. Daily prasadam is there for devotees. It will take 4-5 hours to reach from Hyderabad by private vehicle. There are many hotels are for accommodation. Better to carry umbrella if you are coming in summer or rainy seasons.

The travel along Ghar roads will be a journey to remember. It's around 80km which will take 2 hrs if there's no traffic around you. The temple premises and surroundings are so serene . As it is one of the 12 jyotirlinga, the crowd will always be there. But when compared to others, we can easily negate it. We went on a peak day which is a weekend and also Karthika pournami an auspicious day to darshan Shiva. Still we completed the darshan in an hour without any ruckus. Sakshi ganapathi temple, phala dara panchadara, srisaila shikara , a ropeway down to the river and boating in the Krishna river backside the dam are notable mentions .

I have visited this temple on the number of 6th out of 12 Jyotirlingas. I love this temple with so peaceful and energetic environment. This place here Lord Shiva lived with Mata Parvati and Ganesh. When you visit shiva temple then you have to visit Parvathi ji temple. After the both temples. You have finally visit to Sakshi Ganpathi temple to Mark the attendence. It's a saying here that Lord Ganesha will verify your presence to Lord Shiva. I love this story . I'm sharing the photos of the temple and the way of scenic route

Way to Tample is through hills so keep enough time to reach at Bhashm Aarti.... Right time to come during rain season or just after rain season.... Tample is so beautiful and calm. Most thing is that phones are not allowed in mandir parisar.

Among 12 Jyotirlingas , this is the 2nd Jyotirlingas . This is placed on the sri sailam hill . The Temple is managed by Trust and the trust is undoubtedly doing a fabulous job to keep the sanity of the premises and temple. You can reach here by road transportation which is available from hyderabad and chennai from both points. The road is neat clean and well maintained. The AP state govt run bus is also available. In the way you will get a reserve forest and the beauty of the way is outstanding. You will be amazed by seeing the beauty of nature through your journey. After reaching there many guest houses are available as well as trust run hotels are also available. It's suggested to book accommodation online . AP state govt tourism department's hotel is also available and you need to book it only online mode. It's the best among all accommodations available there. For the puja process there are many customize options for devotee . You can book online sparsha darshanam , Abhisekam , garbhagriham and many others . Apart from that free darshan is also available. The trust maintain and take due care for every devotee and arrangement is very nice. Apart from this there are Patal ganga which you can go through walking the stairs or rope way. After visiting the jyotirlinga you must visit the sakshi ganapati temple .

The pious jyotirling located in the depth of Sri sailam tiger reserve is a must go place for those seeking spirituality in the arm of natural beauty. However , 1 - Be informed of timing from official website. 2- Also Visit Sikharam Temple , Panchdhara, Hateshwar temple and Sakshi Ganpathi temple located within 10-12 kms from main temple complex. 3- Carry sufficient cash with you. 4- On weekends booking accommodations can be challenging particularly if you are not a Telugu speaking person. 5- Ropeway facility to pathal ganga, Krishna river available (charge Rs80/person ). Can visit cave temples.

One of the best experiences we had over Darshan. Peaceful and energetic in the temple. Fully feeling some energy in the main temple.
