AMMAN KOILS - PARIHAARA KOILKAL


Because of recently developped part of the City, people may think that the
Dieties are comparatively  new and has no history behind. 
While opening the railway station - Palavakkam/St Thomas Mount itself
there was an idea of naming the station as Nangai Nallur since from the records it is known that the name of this small ancient  hamlet  is nanganalur.But becaue of then local residents resistance could not be done. Pachaiamman and rajarajeswari are the ancient ammans in small
temples and grown bigger now.
Devotees may think Chennai itself as a new city with new temples.
But actually Saithaapettai is Seethaapettai. Parangimalai is Bringi malai where Bringi maharishi had ashram
Thiruvanmiyur is the place where Rishi Vanmiki Ashram was there . Seethathevi in exile after sent out by Ramar was said to stay here in Vamniki Ashram. Chennai has many old temples, places  as a mark of Seethadevi staying, Lava Kush playing ,Ramar movements with Anjaneyar etc. 
Ramaavaram/Nandambaakkam are the areas where Ram/Anjaneya
walked through . Koyambedu is the area where Aswam of Rama was tied
by Lav/Kush/ Kurungaaleeswar Temple the lingam was made by hand of
Childrens Lav/Kush for removing  Dosha - having fought with Lakshman  .
Chinnambedu(Siruvapuri) is the place where Lava/Kusha fought with 
Laksman etc for Aswam.(siruvar por purintha idam - siruvapuri: chinna ambeduththa idam - chinnambedu)Kusan had snanam in river for dosha
that river is kusasthalai.
Hence all ancient amman temples from Thiruvanmiyur till Periapalayam in all directions will have connections with Ramayana and Lava - Kusha.
You can see Seethadevi as a housewife with Kodalikondai in perumal temple at koyambedu. You can see in Sivan Temples near Koyambedu/Suruttapalli area also - dieties of lav Kush - Some Rishis like Baradwaj,Bringi,Vanmiki,Agasthiar, durvaas etc - they had visited those temples for having blessings of God there.

2.THILLAI KAALIYAMMAN KOIL, CHIDAMBARAM

t was an argument that who is superior, either 'Shivam' (Lord Shiva) or ‘Shakthi’ (Goddess Parvathi). In order to resolve thus, they performed a dance program at Chidambaram in front of Lord Vishnu, Lord Brahma and Points. While they were playing dance, Lord Shiva was about to be defeated. But knowing fully well Lord Shiva played on "OORTHAVA THANDAVA" i.e. raising is leg above his head. This "OORTHAVA THANDAVA" is one of the posture in the dance. It could not be played by the women folk due to their modesty and shyness. In this Goddess Parvathi could not equally play this posture and agreed her defeat and she was go to the extreme end of the town. In order to contain her haughtiness and to teach a lesson that “Shivam & Shakthi” both are important in our life.

“Mother Shri Thillai Kali Amman” is a deity in anger. This anger was pacified by Lord Brahma by Chanting Veda and also praising her. Because of the penance of Lord Brahma 'Mother Thillai Kali' became Cool. So that Goddess 'Thillai Kali Amman' in this temple seems with four faces. Stone Inscripts : The Hindu 'Choza' periods are represented in the inscriptions in this temple. This temple about construction in the regime of 'King Kopperunsingan


The temple is near Chidambaram Natarajar Koil and in the city.
there  are two ambals - thillai kaaliyamman - Ukra kaali and Thillaiyamman - a Santha swaroopi.
Both ambaals ate varaprasadi. Maham amd Swathi star special sthalam. 
Actually one may think of dancing at chidanbaram by Natarajar only but actually Both Natarajar & Shakthi danced here with Brahma and Vishnu as  audience cum umpires.Sthalam for sakala thosha nivarthi.
