Devki Paramaanandham Krishnam Vande' Jagathgurum II
Shree Devkikrishna Ravalnath Saunsthan
Shree Devkikrishna Ravalnath Saunsthan is one of the earliest temples set up by the Saraswat community in Goa brought to by the legendary Lord Parshuram.
The story of Devki and Krishna can be traced to the Mahabharata, a special reference to Gomanchal Parvat where it is reported that a battle was fought between Krishna and Balaram on one side and Jarasandha and his supporters on the other Infact. Jarasand is reported to be so powerful that Krishna decided to take refuge in Gomanchal Parvat, Jarasand is reported to have chased him all the way from the north.
