Temples: history, architecture and distribution

[Guest]

While traveling to Columbus Ohio ( on US 23) I saw this very amusing but very practical suggestion on big bill board.

<b>“Be nice to strangers, visit your in-laws”.</b>

I struggled a lot to translate this life saving precept into different India languages with out losing its funny nature and also usefulness.

The nearest thing that I could come to was
In Hindi
Agunthak ka swagath ki jiye
Saas ka bhi darshan ki jiye.

In telugu
Aganthakulanu adarinchandi
Attagarini darsinchandi

Thats the reason I address you as Sunder garu rather than Sunder.
If that what makes you comfortable so be it.

Now coming to Durvasa,
The Ambarishopkyanamu ( telugu) story is dervied from Mahabharata, during the times of Pandava vansan(amu) and the related Aksya patra story. I think it is in the original Ved Vyasa Mahabharata story (IIRC)

Also Bhagavatham talks about Atri maha muni ( Atreyasa gothram) lineage and Durvasa ( which cantor I am unable to re call but can come back on that)
