    Dear Sirs

    I am very keen to know in-depth about Vanadurga Devi and ways of worshiping. I would appreciate if you could please advice me which books or internet links that will help me find more information.

    I understand that some temples of Vanadurga has the roof left open to sky. Please let us know the significance.

    Many thanks

    Namaste Sankar,

    Perhaps the "Contact Us" page here is worth investigating, for answers
    about proper worship, etc. as Vanadurga Devi is the presiding deity.

    I hope this is helpful.

    I heard that Sri Vijayawada Kanaka Durga Devi is a form of Vana Durga.Vijayawada is situated in the state of Andhra Pradesh,India.It is said that the Goddess appeared due to the tapas of a Yaksha named Indrakila and granted him permanent blessings.So he assumed the form of a mountain and Durga Devi established herself on the hill,so it is called as Indrakiladri,the mountain of Indrakila.

    In some Puranas it is said that after slaying the demon Mahishasura the Goddess settled there and since then she is residing there.
    Also,Lord Brahma is said to have perform a Yajna there and Sri Shiva manifested as Sri Malleshwara Swami Lingam.Arjuna is known to have performed penance here and obtained the Pashupatastra from God Shiva.

    Sri AdiShankaracharya installed a Sri Chakra here and pacified and gave worship instructions.It is said to be one of the most powerful temples of the Goddess in India.
