Xelvona Tour- Let's Go Goa Again

Shri Sateri Temple, Xelvona- Goa

 With no much information found

I make do with what I have 

Shri Sateri mandir houses Maa Bhagawati Devi

The deity of Aldona brought to the village in 1978

Source: Vpaldona

The mandir was built on donation money

Given by one and many 

Each of whom sponsored 

The golden kalasha, the sabhamandap, & the Pravesh dwar*

Over a course of time 

***********

Note: 

Kalasha- An auspicious pot established with water inside and a coconut on the top

Sabhamansap- a semi-open space where temple-related events take place 

Pravesh dwar- Entrance Door

Sangameshwar Temple, Sanguem, Near Xelvona- South Goa

 The only way I can possibly write 

About a place this lovely 

Is to visit and see with my own eyes 

But until then-

All I can say 

Is that the Sangameshwar mandir in Sanguem

Lies submerged in water during the monsoons

Only the top of the gopuram you can see

If you go close enough to the gushing waves 

However, on Mahashivratri, 

The auspicious festival in the month of Feb 

The mandir stays dry and ready 

For bhakts to pray to their favorite Bhagwan
