Sri Navaneetha Krishnar Temple Bangalore
Located in Dodda mallur, this temple is dedicated to Lord Krishna, but in a unique form – that of a crawling baby Krishna holding a large blob of butter in his hand. This form of Lord Krishna is Lord Navaneetha. It is said that this idol appeals to your maternal instincts. The idol has been set up on a Garuda Peetam and is bedecked with jewelry. The blob of butter represents Gnyanam (self realization) which will be shared with the devotee if the devotee seeks it with a pure mind.
It is also believed that Lord Navaneetha grants the boon of a child to those who wish for offspring. Hence, numerous devotees are to be seen offering small wooden cradles (sometimes silver & gold too) to the idol.
