*Daitya Sudan Temple – Lonar*
Daitya Sudan Temple is a mighty impressive temple located in the heart of the Lonar town in Buldhana district-Maharastra.This beautiful Lord Vishnu temple has been dated to the reign of the Chalukya Dynasty who ruled Central & Southern India between 6th and 12th century AD.
Daitya Sudan Temple measures 105 ft. long by 84.5 ft. broad. It is a tree chamber temple, the inner most being garbhagriha, the sanctum sanctorum, where the idol of Lord Vishnu standing atop Lavanasur is there. The present day idol was made by Bholse rulers of Nagpur after the original went missing. The second chamber is called "antaral" where individual puja was performed on the roof of this block one can see beautiful cravings of Puranic stories. The killing of Lavanasur by Lord Krishna and appearance of Dhar of Lonar; story of Kansa and Krishna, story of Narasimha and Hiranya Kashyap and lastly raskrida are portrayed in the stone architecture.
Daitya Sudan Temple belongs to the Hemadpanthi class and is built in the form of an irregular star. Daitya Sudan Temple features carvings similar to those seen at Khajuraho temples.
*History*
Lord Vishnu is said to have come down to this place in the form of a young, handsome boy called Daityasudan to slay Lonasura or Lavanasura, the demon who lived under the Earth in this area along with his sisters. Daitya Sudan killed the demon in a battle which ended up in creating the Lonar Lake.
The standing idol of God Surya is placed in the principal niche on the back of the temple. This further gives rise for an assumption that the temple was originally dedicated to the Sun god. However, in the present form, it is a Vaishnava temple of Lord Vishnu in his Daitya Sudan avatar.
