Divya Desams

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Divya desams are 108 temples that are regarded by Srivaishnavite Hindus as being of special holiness. 106 of them are in India, while 2 are believed to exist in the spiritual realm.

Vaishnava Hindus, especially in South India, hope to visit the 106 divya desams (temples) that are in the Indian subcontinent, and hopefully reach god's feet in the rest 2 of the 108 divya desams, namely Thiruparkadal (The Ocean of Milk, in which God resides) and Thiruparamapadham (at God's holy feet).
