Miracle – This incidence took place long back (25-30Yrs back) when Bangalore-Guntakal Meter Gauage was converted into broad gauage at Penukonda. Brundavanam of Sri Sri 1008 lakshmikantha Theertharu-of Sri Vyasaraja mutt. Authoritied without the knowledge of the presence of this Great Saint’s Brundavanam they laid the new Broad gauage track over his brundavanam (ofcourse before that they poured the mud to cover it).
Next day morning when they came for the spot, for their surprise they found that new trak was completly broken & was in hapazard way. This incidence happend not just once, but 2-3 times. Then later on one fine night one of the engineer saw this great saints brundavanam & this was the reason why they had this trouble.
Later railways decieded to sketch a new plan & laid alternative line.
You can see the brundavanam of Sri Sri Lakshimikantha theertharu in the outskirts of Penukonda.
