The Legend of Sri Ranganathar – The Lord Who Chose to Stay
The idol of Ranganathar was once worshipped by Lord Brahma, then passed on to the Ikshvaku dynasty of Ayodhya. When Lord Rama gifted it to his devotee Vibhishana after defeating Ravana, the latter journeyed to Lanka with it. But when he stopped to rest by the Kaveri river in Srirangam, the idol miraculously rooted itself to the spot and refused to move. Accepting this divine will, Vibhishana consecrated the idol there, giving birth to the Ranganathaswamy temple—today one of the largest functioning temples in the world.
This paper mache Golu doll captures that timeless moment of divine rest and surrender. The Lord chose to stay, and from that act, a whole tradition of worship flourished. Let your Kolu bommai steps reflect that same divine stillness and presence.
History of Golu – Devotion in Tiers
