Rangashila Sthan, Phaltan (रंगशिळा वेदाध्ययन स्थान, फलटण)

Rangashila Sthan / Ranganaath Temple

This temple is near to Abasaheb temple at Phaltan. Earlier there was a Ranganaath Temple at this place, where Chakarapani  Pabhu used to come regularly with his mother during his childhood. At this place there was a round shaped large stone (Shila) and Shri Chakrapani Prabhu used to study "Veda" by sitting on this shila which is called as "Rangashila". 
After few years due to some reason, this Rangashila got broken in to five parts. One of those five parts was established in this temple and other one part was placed in the Abasaheb temple. This is Charanankit Sthan [चरणांकित स्थान] of Shri Chakarapani Maharaj.
