In its primitive sense this word corresponds to a place marked off as sacred to a God, in which the house of God may be erected. The shrine or the abode of the God has different nomenclatures. In ancient Sastras or literature the temple is referred as Devagriha, Devalay, Devakula, etc. Athi's > TEMPLE PROJ ATHI > TEMPLE INFO athindrans Wed, 14 Sep 2011 09:54:01 GMT
