that during the month of Karteeka, on Panchami day in the last fortnight, highlighted
by the nakshathram Uttarashadha, Sri Padmavathi emerged from a golden lotus
from Pushkarini. It is believed that Goddess MahaLakshmi herself emerged as Sri
Padmavathi.

hands showing Abhaya and Varada mudras protecting the devotees and assuring them
to fulfill their desires.

fruitful only after visiting the Sri Padmavathi Devi temple.
The Deities of Sri Krishna, Balarama,
Sundararaja Swami, and surya-Narayana Swami are also quite
beautiful.
