108 Abhimana Kshetrams

 

Abhimana Kshethram or Abhimana Sthalam is a list of 108 sacred Vishnu temples apart from the other 108 Divya desams.


Abhimana desams or close abodes are the most significant temples in the Vaishnavite tradition, which have similar greatness as Divya Desams.


These temples are classified as Abhimana Kshethrams because they are mentioned in several Puranas and Ithihasas, including the Ramayana and Mahabharata, and because they have significant Sthala Puranas based on these religious texts.


Numerous religious scholars and saints, including Ramanuja, Adi Shankara, Madhvacharya, Nathamuni, Yamunacharya, Vedanta Desika, Manavala Mamunigal, Purandara Dasa, Narayana Teertha, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, and numerous other esteemed Vedic teachers and Rishis, are also reported to have visited the temples.


Some of these Temples are said to be visited by the Alvars who did not sing the god's grace for various reasons.
