00:00Palyoshni is a description of the Purna river in the Puranas.
00:07In the village of Chandurbazar Taluk in Amravati district,
00:10which is situated on the banks of the Purna river,
00:15there is a temple of Gangamayee for hundreds of years.
00:20No matter how far the river is, this temple is very safe for hundreds of years.
00:25Gangamayee is also known as Navas for this purpose.
00:30And for this Navas, on the last Sunday of the month of Paush,
00:34on the occasion of the yatra,
00:36the old tradition of throwing a stick in the Purna river and making Navas is still seen today.
00:44In the Puranas, there is a Puran called Palyushni Puran,
00:48in which the description of the Purna river is given.
00:54From Brahmalathadi, Deurwala and Madhya Pradesh,
00:58the Palyushni Puran has the description of all these places.
01:02One of the holy places is Brahmanalathadi.
01:05The word Thadi means rock,
01:07and because of the Purna rock,
01:09the Puran has the description of Brahmanalathadi.
01:12Gangamayee is famous as the village deity in that village.
01:16And this temple is in the middle of the river.
01:20Till now, the Purna has come to the Sheklo river,
01:23and not a single stone of this temple has been thrown in this Purna.
01:27This is the specialty of this temple.
01:29This temple is the centerpiece of the village culture of this village.
01:34On the fourth day of the month of Paush, a big market is filled here.
01:38All the people of Panchakrsha come here to see the temple.
01:41And the important thing is that,
01:43the village deity of this village,
01:45who does not have children,
01:47if people do Namas here,
01:49and after completing the Namas,
01:51the way of worship is still going on here.
01:54On the fourth day of the month of Paush,
01:57a big market is filled here.
02:00In 2014, when there was a big flood,
02:03a big dam was built on this river in Vishnuli village.
02:06And because of the sudden release of water from the dam,
02:09a complete flood situation was created in this area.
02:12At that time, only the rock of this temple was visible.
02:15And there was a huge loss here.
02:17In this loss, all the losses were in the village water.
02:20But not a single stone of this temple has been moved.
02:23This is one of the famous features of this temple.
02:27This is the Gangamayi Temple,
02:29Brahmalar Thadi, Etilasun.
02:31This is the goddess of knowledge,
02:33who does Namas here.
02:35People who do not have children,
02:37do Namas here,
02:39and their wishes are fulfilled.
02:42This temple has been here since ancient times.
02:45Not a single person in the village can say that we built this.
02:48You have come here to see our Gangamayi.
02:51This is the temple sitting on the bank of the Purna river.
02:54And it is in the state of Purna.
02:57When big floods come to the Purna river,
03:00then the temple is in such a state.
03:02And this is the grace of God.
03:04There is no loss of God or anything from here,
03:07neither to the village nor to the temple.
03:10There are big programs in this temple.
03:13The week is held here.
03:15And the importance of this river is that,
03:17for those who do not have children,
03:19or do not have children,
03:21this is the goddess who looks after their children.
03:24And when the child is born,
03:26she has to cut the branches of the trees.
03:30And in the cutting,
03:32the child has to flow into the river.
03:35So this is the temple of ancient times.
03:39On the banks of the Purna river,
03:41which is important for water conservation,
03:43on the last Sunday of the rainy month,
03:45a big journey will take place here.
