SELLA-KATARAGAMA SRI LANKA

Sella-Katharagama is dedicated to God Ganesh who is the elder brother of God Katharagama.  And who’s knowledgeable of everything in the world.  Sella-Katharagama is 5Km away from the Katharagama Town situated Monaragala District of Uva Province in Sri Lanka.


When, Valli Matha, a daughter of a Chief of Vedda refused to marry God Katharagama, the God Ganesh appeared as an elephant and frightening Valli Matha and God Katharagama is rescuing her. And then Valli Matha is agreed to marry God Katharagama because he rescued her from the elephant. Sella-Katharagama Dewalaya was established by the side of Manik River where the said incident happened. Lot of pilgrims break coconuts to accomplish their wishes and offering Pooja Watti (A large Dish with fruits) to God Ganesh.
