SRI SRI SRI DAKSHAYANI SAMETHA RAMALINGESWARA SWAMY DEVASTHANAM MEDCHAL HYDERABAD Shiva Lingam that Ram worshipped ■ The 1,200-yr-old idol is situated in a cave in a temple at Medchal The temple was built by Rajalingam Datrika, a jagirdar of yesteryears, who donated land to many persons. Medchal has changed a lot. The sleepy village, the gateway to Hyderabad, is crowded and dangerous and development has stretched far and wide. You turn left at the Ambedkar statue on the main road and keep going till you reach a railway gate. Once you cross this, there are a number of government offices. Turn left to see the gopuram of the Sri Ramalingeshwaraswami Devalayam on a hillock. While the gopuram itself is nothing to write home about, it is the entrance archway which continues to be beautiful and in its original state. This temple was built by Rajalingam Datrika, a jagirdar of yesteryears, who donated land to many persons, according to his grandson Kashinath Datrika who now looks after the temple. “I am the eighth generation from the family. My thata (grandfather) was a generous man and gave land to the people working for the temple, including the person who swept the place,” says Mr Datrika. Apparently, Rajalingam believed in the architecture of those days and the temple was thoughtfully constructed around the Swayambhu lingam, which is supposed to have been in this area for 1,200 years. “We had a 150-year-old house built of dangu chunam and huge windows. The lingam is actually in a cave and apparently Rajalingam had a dream where he was told to come to the hillock to spot the lingam. He came, searched all over but could not find it That night he rested on the hillock and found the lingam where his head had been during the night. A temple was built around it. The cave roof makes the standing space for devotees quite small but is large enough not to make it claustrophobic.సమేత రామలింగేశ్వర స్వామి దేవస్థానం మేడ్చల్ హైదరాబాద్.
