A miraculous sight was witnessed in a Shiva temple in Nellore district today. Three cobras were seen circling around the Shivalinga in the Srikasi Vishwanatha Swamy temple near Manubolu BC Colony this morning. Devotees were surprised to see the snakes circling the Shivalinga and lying there for a while. Later, the three snakes went into the anthill in the temple itself.

This rare sight was captured on video by some devotees on their phones, which quickly went viral on social media. People from the surrounding areas, who came to know about the incident, are flocking to the temple in large numbers to pay homage to the Lord. Devotees believe that the sighting of three cobras on a Monday, which is auspicious for Lord Shiva, is a divine sign.

This is not the first time that cobras have been seen in this temple. On May 17 last year, a cobra had circling the Shivalinga after the abhishekam. Also, on the day of Naga Chavithi in October last year, two cobras were seen next to the Shivalinga, surprising devotees. Locals say that the frequent appearance of cobras is a special feature of the place.
