We (Vanchi amma, vanchi, Vidya, Akshaya, Gayathri, Bhavani Srinidhi & myself) asked share auto in the beach station for below two temple & back to station. The rate was 200/- so we decided to walk to the temples We visited the Mallekeswarar temple . It is very big and ancient temple. Located in Thambu chetty street. One of the busy streets in Chennai. When we enter the temple no one was there. No peoples only archakar was there. The devi Maragathambal was very nice the urchavar was wearing two sarees. with contrast green and red colour. Very nice. In a prabhakara we had darshan of Dhakshinamurthy, mahadeva, kailasanathar,kasi viswanathar,Bhairavar & 63 Nayanmars. Only in old shiva temples we can see few more shivas in prabharas. There is separate sannithi for saraswathi also. Here surya is having 7 horses. All other grahas are in circular position. Generally we see 9 navagrahas in 3 rows. It is nice to watch it. Suriayan, chandiran, and sani murthy’s also in main sannit...

We (Ananad & my self)went to ragigudadda Anjaneya swamy temple. The temple is located in the small hillock in J.P nagar, Bangalore. This temple is full surprises and uniqueness. The temple was clean & tidy. Once you enter you can find a heap of bags. Everyone has to take one bag to put their shoes. Instead of keeping one by one in a open rack. This itself attracted me. Next there is tap to clean your hands. Then we walked few steps to reach the temple. Hear you can see the navagrahas in a circle position in the center surya bhagwan. This is different from other navagraha temple positions. Generally they all arranged in a 3 rows .in each row 3 gods. Next we saw a big ganesh with wife and his trunk turned towards right this also a rare one. Next we saw a Rajarajeswari amman. Then we saw one Annapoorani amman here they donate rice to this amman. nice to watch the persons standing a queue to offer the rice to annapoorani. Then we saw anjaneya main deity in sindoor decoration. ...

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 her...

01-01-201, Sunday Everyone is trying to follow their new year resolutions. I plan to visit the temples nearby Trichy. First we ( Vichu atimber, Visalam akka, murali, Saradha, Prakrithi, Prithivi, Srinath and myself) went to Koviladi. One of the Divyadesam. This perumal is known as “appakudathan”. There was a power cut when we were inside. The invertor also drained. We are waiting in the queue. Slowly moved near perumal, The bhattar was so patient enough to explain the details of perumal in amidst crowd. He was fully sweating. We are thinking what a tough job it is? we are working in the AC rooms. Here bhattar was working without any help from the visitors. Not listening to his words calmly. It is one of the panchal ranga shetrams. This is the middle one, other four are Mysore Srirangapatnam Aathi Rangam, Srirangam Kasturi Rangam, Kumabakonam Saarangapani and Thiru Indhalur Parimala Rangam. Appakudathan is very merciful he has splashing his love to everyone came to see him. At the ti...
