Every Indian temple has a story behind it. Many have several stories, told by different storytellers and spanning many centuries. In most of them history and mytholo-gy weave into each other making the legends almost completely believable. Vishnu, searching for his beloved Lakshmi, chose the Seshacha-lam hills as his abode. Vaishnavi, who was created from the powers of the three su-preme goddesses to fight evil, transformed into the meditating goddess Vaishno Devi. King Narasimha Deva I prayed to Surya for an heir. His prayers were answered. In gratitude, he constructed a magnificent tem-ple to the benevolent sun god. Amar Chitra Katha brings together the stories behind the famous temples of Tirupati, Vaishno Devi and Konark.
