Similarly, there are many temples of Golu Devta, Eddi Devta, Bhairav, Narasimha deities In the present time we give more value on the physical and external world and development but very less emphasis on our internal feelings. As we all know that for the betterment of our body, mind and soul the development of our internal feelings and energy must be there.
