|
This is a Hindu shrine located near Bagan Datoh 4.0000° N, 100.7500° E which is approximately 21 miles (45KM) from Teluk Intan town, Perak, Malaysia.
The temple deity is called Kothanda Sree Rama with his consort Sree Sita Devi at his right and his brother Sree Lakshmana to his left are placed in the sanctum. Also in the garbhagha is Hanuman kneeling with a state
of prayer.
Rama and Lakshmana carry the arrows in their right hands and strung bows in their left hands. According to Kampan, the term Kothanda Rama connotes kingship and kingly right to punish wrong-doers. Kampan projects
Kothanda Rama as the Champion of Dharma, a hero whose heroic-beauty, heroic-kingship and heroic quality as Warrior-Hero combine to overcome the forces of Adharma.
Thus, Sree Rama is revered for his unending compassion, courage and devotion to religious values and duty. In honour of Lord Sree Rama, this temple was build for all his greatness and supremely powerful potencies
to reside gracefully and magnificently at Kuala Perak Sree Rama Temple. |
