Jogulamba Temple
The Jogulamba Temple is a revered Hindu shrine dedicated to Goddess Jogulamba, a fierce form of Shakti, located in Alampur, Telangana, India. It is recognized as one of the 18 Maha Shakta Peethas, believed to be the spot where the upper teeth of Goddess Sati fell. The temple is situated on the banks of the Tungabhadra River, near its confluence with the Krishna River, and is often referred to as the “Western Gateway” to Srisailam.The original temple dates back to the 7th century CE, constructed during the reign of the Badami Chalukyas. It was destroyed by the Bahmani Sultans in 1390 CE, leading to the deity being shifted to the nearby Bala Brahma Temple for protection. The current structure was rebuilt and consecrated in 2005 under the PRASAD scheme of the Government of India. The name “Jogulamba” is derived from the Telugu “Yogula Amma,” meaning “Mother of Yogis.”
