Dayanidhisvara temple, Aduthurai, Tamil Nadu

The Divyajnanesvara temple at Aduthurai was built in Gandaraditya's third regnal year i.e. 952 CE. It is relatively small with only traces of decoration on the vase shaped pillar part (lasuna) of its pilasters. It stands on a simple platform (upapitha) and the door guardians (dvarapalas) are smaller than usual but of good workmanship. All pillars and pilasters are of the full Early Chola order with plain angular corbels. References: M.W. Meister and M.A. Dhaky, 1963, p.176, D. Barrett, 1973, p. 85.
