India gave birth to several devotees of god and spiritual stalwarts and sacred souls. There have been innumerable great persons, who evolved and propagated different methods of worshipping god. They removed the ignorance of the people of treating the worldly enjoyments as the final goal of life and helped them to get salvation or the realization of supreme self or god.

The family of Ailavajjala of Bhaaradwaaja gotra in Paatakoduru village in Nellore district of Andhra Pradesh was well known for several great men who were experts in the Shakta cult of worshipping Mother Goddess.
