Golagamudi Venkaiah Swamy Temple:
Golagamudi Venkaiah Swamy
Temple is dedicated to a great Sage and Avadhuta named Bhagavan Venkaiah Swamy.
Bhagavan Sri Venkaiah Swamy is a famous spiritual saint who lived in
Venkatachalam Mandal village near Nellore.
Since 1974, Bhagavan Sri Venkaiah
Swamy visited golagamudi and used to remain in golagamudi after 1974. Swamy set
the basis for building with his own hand in the year 1980 (now it is Swami vari
Samadhi mandiram). Swami left his body on 22 August 1982 and his adherents
created Swamy Samadhi in construction (the basis set by swamy) now it was Swamy
vari Samadhi mandiram.
In Samadhi mandiram grounds
correct side is dhuni and left side is well found. Swamy said about dhuni it
was koti lingala pooja kadaiah, meaning if you do pooja for dhuni the outcome
is equivalent to pooja worship of one key Siva Lingas.
Golagamudi Venkaiah Swamy
History:
Born to a religious pair,
Venkaiah Swamy. As their eldest son at Nagulavellatur, Sompalli Pitchamma and
Sri Penchalaiah – a tiny town in Nellore District, Andhra Pradesh, India.
He had a sister and two siblings.
Currently, nobody is alive. For a few days, during the evenings, he came to Sri
Siddiraju Ramaiah for personal tuition. He left his studies at his teacher after
one or two months of poverty. He has been a lover of loneliness since he was
five years old.
He used to say them
"brother" when his playmates invited him to play! I committed a
theft; now I'm going to be arrested by the police. You'll also be detained if
you're with me. Please leave me. "When the kids left, he used to sit for
meditation behind a door.
Swamy and his friends used to go
into the woods to collect date fruits etc. He's going to sit behind a hedge and
meditate. If any of his colleagues are disturbing him, he'll say the same
phrases and give them away. At the age of seventeen, he used to cut firewood
and bring it on a bullock cart to Nellore and sell it there. He also took and
sold at Nellore the banyan leaves that were used to prepare leaf plates.
At that age, he learned to
ploughing at the age of twelve which is impossible. To the greatest
satisfaction of elders, he conducted all kinds of agricultural job. He did all
the work with so much interest that the people on sight couldn't but praise the
precision of the work
He was suffering from a fever at
the age of 20. This made a shift in his life. He used to cry out yogam chakali,
yogam jakkali, etc. He was disappearing from his home.He resurfaced in Madras
after about twenty years. He came back to Nellore and walked widely around
Golgamudi in the villages. He lived in Penna Badvel Thippa for the first time.
He came to Kotithirtham later, whom he called his Pandari.He used to light in
his samadhi mandir the holy fire or gundam that is still burning. He defined
this holy fire as equivalent to a koti linga worship.
Venkayya Swami was considered a
madman by many villagers. They couldn't comprehend that he was an avadhuta. It
was the master of Sri Ekkirala Bharadhwaja who acknowledged him as a wonderful
avadhuta and urged many to visit him. Swamy's life was easy. He always lived
outdoors, and by doing biksha to eat. He healed a lot of illnesses.
He used to compose prophetic
pramana patras in nature. A visit to Golgamudi is crucial for anyone following
the tradition of Datta avadhuta. Even now, Swami is mysteriously protecting his
devotees. In many books, Golagamudi
Venkaiah Swamy Miracles were recorded.
