In the last decade, the statue is also seen inside. Even centuries ago, the self -proclaimed Ganesh statue started growing, then Shankaracharya stopped the statue’s head by putting a nail on the head of the statue.
The Maratha carpet along the historic lake in Sagar, Madhya Pradesh is more than 400 years old. Here the statue of Lord Ganesha’s vermilion is increasing its size again after 4 century. Due to the nail in the head, it is growing from the front instead of height. The base of the idol’s forehead is increasing year after year. The devotees themselves are looking at Ganesha with their own eyes and saluting Ganesha as a miracle.
Only two octagonal Siddhivinayak temples in the country
The octagonal Siddhivinayak temple of Maratha carpet Ganeshji was prepared in the 1600th century. The first lake had a statue sitting with Riddhi-Siddhi of Ganesha. They are considered self -proclaimed. The temple is built in octagonal architecture and design. The Maratha families associated with the temple say that there is one Maharashtra in the country and the other in Sagar. The octagonal Siddhivinayak temple is nowhere else in the country.
The nature of the statue remained unchanged for 400 years
80 -year -old Govind Rao Athale, who served in the temple, says that he has been seeing the statue since childhood. The statue has an abusive nail on his head. According to the elderly and temple managers, Shankaracharya came to Sagar at that time, he had prevented the size of the statue to increase the size of the statue. The base and bulge of the idol’s forehead have started increasing automatically since the year 2010. It has emerged up to 4 inches. Who must have seen a decade ago and now appears, then the difference is clearly visible.
