Srikalhasti - Gudimallam - Srikalahasti and Tirupati are two popular pilgrimage destinations located in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh, India. Both places are known for their temples and religious significance. Srikalahasti - Srikalahasti is a town situated on the banks of the river Swarnamukhi. It is famous for the Srikalahasteeswara Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva. The temple is renowned for its unique architecture and is considered one of the Pancha Bhoota Stalas, representing the element of air. The main attraction of the temple is its Vayu Linga, which is said to represent the wind element. The temple is also known for its intricate carvings and sculptures. Srikalahasti is also known for its association with a legend involving a spider and a snake that saved the main deity's linga from being covered by sand. The town has a vibrant religious atmosphere and attracts a large number of devotees throughout the year. Gudimallam - A phallic sculpture in the tradition of the Shaiva cult, dated to several points between the third century BCE and first century CE, the Gudimallam stone lingam is located in the Parasurameshwara temple of the Gudimallam village in the Chittoor district of Andhra Pradesh. It was recovered in 1903 by the archaeologist TA Gopinath and is the oldest lingapitham (or ‘linga mounted on a pedestal’) and possibly the second oldest linga associated with the Hindu deity Shiva. The lingam is designated as a Parasurameshwara – perhaps as a tribute to Shiva’s devotee Parasurama – and measures 1.5 metres in height and 0.3 metres in diameter, resting on a low quadrangular plinth set in the floor. Although it has not been definitively dated or had its provenance established, it is widely agreed that this is the earliest known example of a fully representational and non-conventional lingam, bearing a distinct, high relief image of Shiva carved into its front. It is carved from highly polished, reddish-brown rock and is enclosed in an apsidal sanctum, or garbhagriha. Rising up from a quadrangular pedestal, or pindika, carved in the floor, the lingam is demarcated into a seven-sided shaft and a terminal segment rendered to be anatomically identical to the glans penis. There are two figures carved in relief on the lower-front side: the figure of Shiva stands on the shoulders of a crouching, dwarf-like figure – thought either to be the demon Apasmara Purusha from popular Shaiva iconography, the mischievous servitory gana of Shiva, or a yaksha similar to those depicted on the stupas at Bharhut and Sanchi in Madhya Pradesh. The Shiva sculpture carved on the front is rendered in great detail, displaying a braided and curled coiffure, which later evolved into the characteristic jatamukuta; a multitude of elaborate ornaments decorating his neck, ears and arms; a belt or girdle with a tassel; and a thin fabric draped around his waist. This archetypal figure is depicted as two-armed — with a ram or antelope in the left hand and a small pot of water or ghee in the right — and with a battle-axe resting on his left shoulder. The ornamentation on the deity is repeated, but to a lesser extent, on the crouching figure, depicted with prominently pointed conch-shaped ears and fish-shaped feet.
