Ponvilanthakalathur visit on 15-01-12

We went pon vilaintha kalathur. Here 3 temple are there.
1. Lakshimi narayana swamy temple.
2. Pattabhisheha ramar & Sethu ramar.
3. Mukkudumi eswarar.

Enroute to ponvilaithakalathur we visited Chettipuniyam.
This very famous for yoga hayagreevar. Students come here with pens, notebooks placed before hayagreevar to get his blessings to do well in their exams.
Moolavar is varadaraja perumal.urchavar is yoga hayagreevar. He is very small and wearing muttangi it is very beautiful. Bhattar is very patient enough to take pens and notebooks from bhaktas and returning it back to them after placing them in Hayagreevars feet.To write the exam roll number instead of wall there is a board here. I really liked this idea.
Another interesting attraction is in the prabharam there is a tree, people will tie a knot to get the blessings for marriage.















We first went to pattabhisheha ramar. Here Sita was sitting on ramas lap like Bhatrachala ramar. There is a big srinivasan here. you cannot move your eyes from him. He is very beautiful. In the same component we can see the sethuramar sannithi. The rama is in sleeping posture like Thirupullani. This rama also called Tharbhasayana perumal. This Rama they got from nearby village well approximately 600 years ago.

Most of the temples we cannot see the full moolavar ,he was in sayana thirukolam. Here the entrance is big. so you can see the full moolavar. In Ramayana seetha’s eyes are growing big to capture full rama. Here our eyes also grow big to capture the full rama.




Next we went to lakshmi narayana temple. It was a night aarthi time. The bhattar is doing the rituals. The drums man, bell man & poora man are doing their duty. It is very happy to watch still some persons are playing their instruments at the time of pooja in a traditional way. In most of the places we can see the motor operated drums & bells.



We enquired about Mukkudumi easwar temple & chaturpuja ramar. There are no regular bhaktas to the temple. So the temples are closed most of the time.. We have to inform then visit these temples. The lakshmi narashima temple bhattar is doing the pooja in chatrupuja rama. We have to visit chaturpuja rama at 5PM come here with bhattar.
We went in a cab per Km Rs8/- total cost 1800/- for 6 hrs.
