About Us This mythological marvel is the brain child of a great visionary Sri Kunda Satyanarayana. Hailing from a poor family of a small village, Sri Kunda Satyanarayana had neither formal higher education nor any extensive travel background of distant pilgrim centres, except a great love for our culture and tradition. After the death of his youngest son, Surendra Babu, he intensely desired to do something in his memory and the idea of building a mythological park came up in his mind. He didn’t know how to do or how to go about it. The nearing retirement age, the fear of providing huge finances for the project and the discouragement from even his close circles because of his old age did not deter his firm resolve to build the great mythological museum, but made the vision grow stronger day by day with greater zeal. It made him work for 12 years discussing the idea with different people and taking their views on his dream project. He even tried to appoint architects of international standard but they also could not understand what was in his mind. Then he decided to do it all by himself. He took the help of some senior sculptors and started off his work. It was on trial and error basis.

    OM GAM GANAPATAYE NAMAH! JAI KARUNAMAYI MOTHER EARTH temple and warangal ruins Situated in the city of Warangal, we will visit one of the most breathtaking and historical landmarks of India, the Warangal Fort Ruins and Temples. The ruins consist of three concentric layers, whose towering 50-ft granite gateways hint at the glory of the original edifice. Here we will also find the shrine known as Syambhuva, a temple dedicated to Mother Earth displaying beautiful craftsmanship and ornate carvings reminiscent of those found in Belur & Halibedu. Amma will also take us for the Darshan (sight) of a Shiva Temple located at the center of the ancient city. RAMAPPA TEMPLE The Ramappa Temple is located outside of Hyderabad, near the legendary city of Warangal. This powerful and unique shrine is dedicated to Ramalingeshwara, a form of Lord Shiva, and it sits on a very auspicious, star-shaped foundation (in fact, the ancient sanctuary has earned the description of being the “Brightest Star in the Galaxy of medieval temples…”). The sculptor’s devotion to the Lord can seen in the intricately carved pillars, walls and ceilings of the temple. And Lord Shiva’s blessings for this holy place have been reciprocated in temple’s ability to withstand wars, invasions and natural disasters, despite being constructed of bricks so light that they float on water. Ramappa is the only temple in India known by the name of the sculptor (Ramappa) rather than the Deity or Location. Thousand pillars temple This hill-top temple was constructed in the 1100’s by the Kakatiya dynasty and is nearly completely intact.

Introduction In recent years there have been signs of substantial research interest in marketing practices of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) (Gillmore et. al, 2001; Blankson and Stokes, 2002; Hill, 2001; Siu, 2000; Siu et. al, 2004; Morrison, 2003; Lee et. al, 2001). Most of these studies have indicated the role of marketing to be critical in the sustainability of the small firms. In a recent study (Huang and Brown, 1999), the problems of sales and marketing were reported as important by 40 percent of the firms surveyed while other important factors reported were human resources (15 percent), general management (14 percent) and production / operations (9 percent) \ In India, a survey by the All India Management Association pointed out that among 872 SSI (Small Scale Industry) units in manufacturing, growth fell by 8.1 percent in 1998-2002. One of the main reasons cited by the units for not being able to do well was problems related to marketing (70 percent) (Jain, 2003).

The history of Golconda goes back to the Kakatiya Dynasty in 11th century when they built a mud fortress on a hill called Golconda. Inadequacy of water, and fre- quent epidemics of plague and cholera persuaded Mohammed, the fifth Quli Qutub Shahi ruler to ven- ture outward to establish the new city with the Charminar at its cen- ter and with four great roads fan- ning out in the four cardinal direc- tions. The capital of the city was Bhagyanagar, which named after a royal beloved Bhagyamati. As she Charminar became the wife of Quli Qutub Shah, the sultan bestowed the title of Hy- 1 der Mahal on Bhagmati and thus was born Hyderabad. The Qutub Shahi rulers were great builders and patrons of learn- ing. Mohamed Quli Qutub Shah built the mosque, whose construc- tion began in 1614 and Aurangazeb completed it in 1687.
