The Story of Paidethalammathali
Long, long ago in a village called Ramamurthi Pantula Petta, there lived a man named Appanna. He always earned his livelihood by selling vegetables and fruits in the market.
One night when he returned to his village after selling, he heard a woman’s voice calling “Appanna, could you drop me to Ramamurthi Pantula Petta?”
He saw a woman in a red saree with a red sindhoor on her forehead. As he was going to the same village, he promised her to drop there. ?
When he reached the village, he informed her. There was no response. He looked back but found she was not there.
When he told his wife about the incident, she mocked him saying that it must be a dream. ?While Appanna went to sleep, he had a dream.? The woman he dropped at the village came in his dream and spoke to him. ?
“Appanna, I am the same woman you dropped in the village. I am Paidethalammathali.? You can find me under the neem tree in the village.? Build a temple there for me.”

The next morning, he informed the Village Head about the dream. He laughed and did not believe him.?
On that day at night, while sleeping the village head had a dream when Paidethalammathali told him that her idol lay hidden under the neem tree.? She asked him to build a temple there. Though it was midnight, he woke up from his sleep and rushed to the neem tree. He discovered the idol under the tree and started to build the temple there.
Once again in the night, the village head had a dream of Paidethalammathali.? She told Appanna must be the first to offer her prasad before anyone offers.? The village head informed Appanna about this.? From that day onwards, the family of Appanna presented the first offering.?
The people in the village started to worship her as their family deity. And it continues even now.

6 个月It is true. During Tretayug all were Godly persons. In the Birth & Death cycle of SOUL and based on respective KARMA of the each SOUL in KALIYUG human has reached to a stage like animal. Only certain souls have memories of their past life carried forward in their cycles. Appanna & DEVI are of that time who have bleak memories of their past life. Every one can experience this if one has spiritual opening of thoughts.???? Similarly, -CHOUDESHWARI MATA in SHIMOGA, KARNATAKA -DURGA MATA IN THE FORT PREMISES OF KITTUR RANI CHANNAMMA, BELAGAVI, KARNATAKA -BIDIRAMMA DEVI IN HAVERI, KARNATAKA and many such devi/ devata temples ?? are in India ???? so it is known as country of GODS.
