Tirupati has almost become my second hometown!
Today I visited TTDs Kapileshwar temple. My friend Kumar took me to temple. Amazingly large temple. Our typical Vijayanagar style sculptures. After losing battle at Rakkasa Tangadi Our Vijayanagar kings continued to rule from Chandragiri, near Tirupati. They built these temples. 'I feel at hampi' in these temples...had Hampi continued to flourish till today, it would have been another 'Tirupati-like temple town.'
My friend Kumar is a great human being..He is Asst Professor in Vidyaniketan Engineering College, at Tirupati. He is always a helping hand...he enjoys teaching...also learning....If I miss darshana of Balaji at Tirumala, I do not regret, because I see Lord Balaji in my friend Kumar. People around us are Gods at play!
