personal and professional life. Health-wise Ketu is connected to deafness and
defect of speech.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<span style="color: red;"><b>VAARANASI ALIAS KAASI ALIAS BANARAS</b></span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: red;"> Kasi Yathra is known as Ashta Bhairava Yathrais by Bhairava Worshippers. To remove Kaala Dosha only ( in other words Kaala Bhairava Dhosham) we are doing all rituals at Kaasi -Pithru Karmas, Prayachitha Poojahs etc.,</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"> In Kaasi, at Vritha Kaleshwar Temple Asithaanga Bhairavar is there. Ruru Bhairavar is at Hanuman Ghat, Chanda Bhairavar is at Durga Mandir, Krothana Bhairavar at Kamaakshaa, at Devaraa Village Unmaththa Bhairavar, Lite Bhairavr temple for Kabaala Bhairavar, Bheeshana Bhairavar at Kasipura, Sarva Chathru samhaara Bhairavar at Thrilochana kanj. One who visits Kasi shall visit all the above Ashta Bhairavars Temples and then only the Yathra will be completed. Otherwise Bhairavars present there and still as Security for the City will make the Devotees to repeat visits to Kaasi till they visit Ashta Bhairavars.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">There are totally 64 Ghaats in Varanasi and All the 64 Bhairavars said to be Present in these Ghats Blessing the Devotees having Dip in the Ghats.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;"><b>KSHETHRABALAKAPURAM</b> </span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;">Near Kuthaalam in Kumbakonam - Mayiladuthurai Route.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">When Bhairavar Picked Brahmas Fifth Head as Instructed by Shivaperuman ,He got Brahmahathi Thosham and to remove the Dosham Bhairavar visited various Temples for 12 years and got Braamhahathi Dosham removed in this Place.At Thiruvalanchushi Vinayakar appeared before Bhairavar and instructed bhairavar to Throw his Thrisoolam and settle in the Place where The Soolm fell. The Soolam fell at Kshethrabalakapuram Bhairavar settled in this Village known as Kshethrabalakapuram Here Bhairavar is with New Thrisoolam given by Shiva as a symbol of removing Doshams. Soola Theertham is also here.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">KaalaBhairavar here is known as Kshethrabakakar. He was Worshipped by Brahma, Vishnu, Navagrahas,Inthiran,Shakthis,This Sthalam is Equivalent to Kaasi & there is a custom of telling Tharaka Manthram in Right Ear of the Persons Died here. </span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;"><b>NAGAPPATTINAM</b> --In the Big Temple Kayarohanaswamy Kovil here, Bhairavar is appearing on Southern Side - in Lion Vahanam. This is the Direction of Yaman. he is as Chathru Samhaara Bhairavar. Here Pundareeka Theertham Tank is there opposite Western Gopuram of the Temple. King Dasarathar , Pundareeka maharishi , all had worshipped here. This Theertham is made from Shiva's Ganga in His Siras & also all Punyatheerthams. Dipping here for continuously for 30 days is equivalent to have Bath in Kasi for 60000 years . Pundareeka Theertham is also known as Sarva Theertham.One can read Naagai Kaayarohana Puraanam to have full info about this Temple.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Besides Kasi - only at Pundareeka Theertham at Nagapattinam, Bhairavar had Meditation for a Long period. </span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;"><b>SIRKAZHI </b>Near Mayiladuthurai in Chidanbaram Route. Sattanathar Temple.</span><br />

Lakshmi Devi Prayed to Bhairavar Mangalaya Bhakyam and Bhairavar Blessed with all Lakshmi sought. Hence if one Prays Bhairavar here, he will be blessed by Lakshmi also. Pleased by release Vishnu gave his Skin(Sattai) and Bones as Thandam to Bhairavar. Hence Bhairavar here is known as Sattanathar.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Sattanathar here is in Blue Colour in Balak Age,Wearing long Shirt,etc in a Pleasing Look Blessing all as King of Brahmapuri.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">When Vishnu Killed Hiranyan as Nrusimhan, Narasimhan drank Blood of Hiranyan and He gor Rajosa gunam,and Vishnu became Athiruthri and Brahman,Mahalakshmi& Shiva could not pacify him. Since It will end only in destruction of Whole Universe, Lord Shiva Created Sarabheswarar to control Narasimham.

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b> </b></span><b style="color: #cc0000;">BHAIRAVAR CHIEF SECURITY OF LORD SHIVAPERUMAN</b></h3>
<div>
<span style="color: #cc0000;">In all Shiva Temples as per Siva aagamaa, ( Followed in South India) north eastern Corner - Eesaanya Corner BHAIRAVAR Diety will be there.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #cc0000;">He will be in Standing Posture with Dog as his Vahanam with 3 eyes.He has a Violent Look with Side Teeth Protruding beyond Mouth ( Korai Patkal) in Nude. Blue Coloured , with ear Kundalams,Wearing Garland of Skulls in Neck, Jewellery of snakes, Hairs as Jwaalaa Flames. He will have all Weapons in Hands. he is Chief Security of Lord Shiva - Protecting all Temples, Sthalangal. religious Places, Wholw universe from Evil effects. He is also known as Kshethra Paalakar.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #cc0000;">Even now in most old Temples there is a practice of Keeping keys (after locking sannathis in Temples) at the feet of Bhairavar for few minutes and take back before leaving. The concept is Bhairava is the real Protector for the Temples from Thieves eventhough we are locking. Siince he is the Security has Dog as his Vahanam. Dog is said to be Vedic Amsam.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #cc0000;">Bruhath jathakam says Bhairava is the amsam of Human Life. One who worships KaalaBhairava will have no Death Fear. Horospically/Astrologically 12 raasis are the 12 parts of Bhairavar. Mesham - Head,Rishabam-Mouth, Mithunam - Two Hands,Katakam-Chest,Simmam-Stomach,Kanni- Hip,Thulaam-Buttocks,Vrichikam-Genitals,Thanusu-Laps,Makaram- Knee,Kumbam- Legs,Meenam- Feet. This convey that worshipping Bhairava will remove all our Body related health problems.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #cc0000;">The Whole Universe is under the Control of Kaal & the Kaal is controlled by Bhairavar. Hence Kala bhiravar worship will remove all Problems by Nine Planets, Grahams Etc. Even fate is said to be " Kaalam" or Neram" in Tamil - Both controlled by Kaala Bhiairavar.</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"><b>BHAIRAVAR IS THE GURU OF SHANEESWARAM</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"> Lord Saneeswarar is the younger son of Surya Devan.and Yamadarmar is the Elder one. Since Saneswarar got Punished by various Gods for catching them & also punished by Yamadarmar - Yamadramar frequently used to ridicule Shaneeswar and being younger one Shaneeswar was teased frequently. When Shaneeswar , prayed to his Mother Saayaa devi, She instructed Shaneeswar to Pray to Bhairavar and he will guide him. After Worshipping Bhairavar and got his blessings Shaneeswar became Powerful Planet of Nine Planets able to Catch anybody including Devas. Even though Sun is superiormost, Saneeswar is the most feared Planet fpr its neutrality in giving retaliations to our Sins. Hence Devotees who are affected by Sani Dosham can worship Bhairavar simultaneously and get their problems solved.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;">Bhairava in Sanskrit means " Bhayam" timidness which will be removed if Bhairavar is worshipped.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"><b>CREATION OF BHAIRAVAR </b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"><b> </b> There are many puranas about Bhairava's Birth. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;"> 1- When Dhakshayini Fell in Yagakund of Yagam performed by his father Dakshan because Dakshan performing Yagam insulting Shivs husband of Dakshayini, She was Charred and Shiva became wild and did Ruthra Thandavam holding her Body in his Hands.Since it will destroy the whole universe including Deva Lokams, Vishnu using his Chakrayutha made Dakshayini Body into 64 pieces The Places where 64 Pieces fell in the Earth are even now known as Shakthi Peetams. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;">2- In the Earlier Days Brahman was with 5 Heads. at that time Brahman was doing atrocities with 5 Head and to remove his headweight&self proudness Shiva created Bhairava. Bhairava with his small finger left hand Picked Brahmas fifth head. Even now we can see in ancient Temples Bhairava will have a Picked Headin his left Hand Small Finger.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;">3- Asuran by name Andhakaasuran had given problems to Devars & insulting them to a great extent.Since he got Boons from Shiva- Bhairava made war with him and destroyed the Asurans. It is also said that Prathyankara Devi accompanied Bhairavar in the War desroying Asurans. Prathyankara Devi is also considered as Wife of Bhairavar.During the War with Anthakasuran - Eight Bhairavars appeared in Eight Directions to make a final war in destroying Asuras. Since Devars happy with Death of Anthakaasuran have given Eight Devis to the Ashta Bhairavars.</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="color: red;">Bhairavar is also worshipped by Budhdhists/Jainist etc., as Bhairavar in the same Roopam/name.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: red;">In olden days Bhairaagees are considered to be the worshippers of Bhairavar. Since Bhairavar main place is Cremation & He is Controlling PrethaLokham,Paisaasam,Bhootha Lokam,Baathaala,Vethaala, Crowds and Other SatanicElements existing in Earth - Bhairaagees used to stay in Cremation Grounds & told as canibals.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Bhairavar Is controlling Yanthram,Thanthram,& He can remove Pilli - Soonyam- Yeval.</span></div>

Gramam and a hitherto unknown temple near Poondi. PushparatheswararTemple
at Gnayiru Gramam is one of the Navagraha temples around Chennai dedicated to
Suryan. The village itself gets its name from Suryan or Sun God, Gnayiru
in Tamil means Sun. It was unknown too. During that visit I had waited
for an hour for the temple priest to come after finishing the rituals at
another temple in a neighbouring village. Today, the temple is getting
popular. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the temple has been
renovated thanks to the efforts of the local villagers and few other
devotees. It is very well maintained too. I would say that it is
one of the better maintained temples that I have visited. Work on the
temple pond is still on and hopefully it should be ready in about 6
months. I also found a rare tree here, in fact, the first time I have
seen this tree. Thiruvodu (begging bowl of the sanyasis) is a half of the
outer shell of the fruit of these trees. It is also used by them to drink
or eat food from and is believed to prevent viral infections.<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div>

legends behind this temple. A Chola King was returning after successfully
waging a war on a kingdom in Andhra Pradesh. He camped at
Cholavaram. He was a staunch Shiva devotee and went in search of lotus to
perform his daily pooja. During his search he saw a pond full of
lotuses. One of the flowers was taller, bigger and more beautiful than
the rest. The King wanted this flower for the pooja and tried to reach
the flower. As the King neared the flower it moved away and was elusive.
After several futile attempts, the King was very angry and threw his sword at
the flower. The sword broke into pieces. One of the pieces fell on
a Lingam which was in the pond. The pond turned red in no time because of
the blood that was oozing from the Lingam. This scar can still be seen on
this Shiva Lingam. The King fainted there. His horse fled from the scene
before fainting. Lord Shiva then appeared before the King and blessed
him. The King apologized to the Lord. Lord Shiva asked the King to
build a temple for the Lingam that was found in the pond. The Shiva
Lingam is a Swayambhu (self-manifested). Here, Lord Shiva is known as
Pushparatheswarar. His consort here is Swarnabigai. The God is also
known as Poothereeswarar. Both the names convey the same meaning; Poo or
Pushpam means flower and ratham or ther means chariot. Since the Lingam
was found in Lotus, He got this name. Lotus is the flower that is offered to
the God here<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

this place got the name Gnayiru Gramam. A Chola King was on a Pilgrimage
to Kasi and was passing through this village. He saw the beautiful lotus
in the pond and as he tried to pluck the same he was blinded. He prayed
to the Lord that he would build a temple here on his way back from Kasi.
Immediately, his eyesight was restored in one eye. As promised he came to the
village on his way back. Lord Shiva appeared to the King and shone
brightly on the lotus as Suryan. The King then built a temple as
instructed by the Lord and got back his eyesight in the other eye as
well. Since then, this place is known as Gnayiru Gramam and came to be
known as a Surya Sthalam. People come here to get themselves cured of eye
related ailments.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

<br />
<span style="background: #C0A154;">Over 1300 years ago, there was a Shiva Devotee
named Kameshwaran in this village. He found a Shivalingam and started
worshipping it in a small shrine. In the same village, lived a man called
Vishwam with his adopted daughter Vasuki. Kameshwaran and Vasuki fell in love
and wanted to get married. But Vishwam was against the match. Not wanting to
hurt his feelings, Kameshwaran and Vasuki prayed to Lord Shiva everyday to join
them in matrimony.Hearing their sincere prayers, Lord Shiva appeared
beforeVishwam as Parameshwaran, the Gurukkal at the temple and asked him to
bring Kameshwaran and Vasuki to the temple. Unable to act against the words of
the Gurukkal, Vishwam did as told. Parameshwaran got the two of them married.
Lord Shiva and Parvathi appeared before the couple, who were overwhelmed with
happiness. Since Lord Shiva got Kameshwaran and Vasuki married here, the place
came to be known as<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>Manamudicha

was lit on the 1300 year old lamp post opposite to the Damodhara Perumal

was not allowed to take pictures inside the shrine due to some local governance
issues with the temple and so one has to personally visit to see the beauty of
the shrine and the idols. It is only in the 1980s that the local youth got

MYLAPORE VELLEESWARAR KOIL<o:p></o:p></span></b></span></div>
<div class="cnt" style="line-height: 16.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;"><b>Velleeswaran
Koil is one of the seven Siva temples of Mylapore. It is physically closest to
the Kapaliswarar Temple, existing as it does on South Mada Street. The
presiding deities are Sukreswarar/Velleeswarar and Kamakshi. Of equal
importance is Muthukumaraswami who has his own flagstaff thereby signifying
that he has a set of annual festivities quite independent of Velleeswarar. This
is similar to what happens at Kapaliswarar Temple where Singaravelar has his
own events calendar.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="cnt" style="line-height: 16.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;"><b>In its
time, the temple must have been a small but pretty shrine with Shiva facing
East, the Goddess having her own sanctum to the right and facing South and
Muthukumaraswami a little behind facing East as well. A fairly large Ganesa
shrine (Selva Vinayakar) faces the entrance. It is significant that Tekkur
Selva Vinyakar Koil Street is exactly opposite the temple and I have often
wondered if this Ganesa is that Tekkur Selva Vinayaka,though as to what is
Tekkur I don’t know. The late Sundari Mani (a wonderful lady of indomitable
spirit) once told me that this Ganesa was also known as Kaikolar Ganapathy as
the area was full of weavers till the 1940s. Apparently, the first garment from
every loom would be offered to this Ganesa.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 12.6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;"><b>The temple has in later years
become a maze of shrines and sub-shrines, each rivaling the other in poor
conception and execution. The biggest star today is Sarabheswarar who draws
enormous crowds on Sundays.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div style="line-height: 12.6pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;"><b>But I digress. The story
behind the temple’s origin (as always it is said to be a thousand years old
though the list of trustees carved on a wall has it that the first trustee was
a Chengalvaraya Mudaliar in 1874), is that this was where Sukra (Venus), was
blessed with eyesight after Vishnu in the Vamana incarnation blinded him. There
is a shrine for this in the temple. Among the processional deities in the
shrine is a unique icon of Vishnu as Trivikrama, a foot lifted up to hold the
heavens. I enquired about it and was told that during the annual Brahmotsavam
which happens in Vaikasi (May/June), one of the highlights is the restoring of
eyesight to Sukra. The event was held yesterday with yours truly in attendance.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>
<div class="cnt" style="line-height: 16.2pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: purple; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;"><b>At
3.45 in the afternoon, Brahma on a swan, Vishnu on Garuda and Shiva on the
bull, set off to the Chitra Kulam (known at this temple as Sukra Teertham). The
processional icon of Velleeswarar does not go for this, the pradosha icon
standing in instead. Alas! the Trivikrama is all trussed up and made to appear
seated on Garuda and looks so disproportionate. What a beauty the icon is
without all this unnecessary decoration.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

taking place inside a makeshift shelter just outside the tank. An oduvar reads
from the Tirumurai, the verses chiefly being those composed by Sundaramurthy
Nayanar for regaining his vision. At the end of this, a screen which covers the
shelter is removed and we see a canopy in which are Mahabali holding an
enormous kindi, Sukra in anjali pose and Vamana. Deeparadhana is offered and
Sukra sees the Trimurthy. The deities then return to the temple, followed by
Sukra, Mahabali and Vamana.<o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

<span style="color: purple; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;"><b>Wonder how many Shiva temples

<span style="color: purple; font-family: "Verdana","sans-serif"; font-size: 9.0pt;"><b>I

helplessness. There is only so much that the Gods can do in the face of human

Swami will provide theertham (Theerthavari) on Marghazhi thursdays)</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Route: The temple is situated near Mayiladuthurai. It is in the route of Mayiladuthurai--Thiruvarur. We have to get down at "Mangainallur". From there we can take an auto to reach peruncheri. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Fame of the village:</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Perum+cheri= A vast group. There were 40,000 sages who lived in this village. They performed severe penance and they thought penance itslef will provide everything and there is no superior god. To enrich their knowledge, siva in form of Bhikshadana and vishnu in form of mohini came here and blessed them</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Sthala Purana:</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana;">The dispute for “tharadevi” (wife of devaguru) between chandra and brihaspathi made brihaspathi much worried and his mind was much upset. He went on Kshetradana and finally coming here, he got peace. He worshipped ambal in his manas and from his manas, ambal directly came out (Swa+anthara+nayagi). So called be her name. Finally siva blessed him (vagh+eswara= Vagh (here it means brihaspathi)) and his sorrow totally flied off. later, Chandra, thara and saraswathi all worshipped here.</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana;">A demonic king from ceylon (Yavanan) once fighted with chola king Dhatta, The chola king was unable to withstand and he worshipped swantharanayagi.

Thirucheeyathamangai<br />(Satthamangai)<br /><br />Swami: Ayavandeeswarar<br />Ambal: Ubayapushpavilochani (Irumalarkanni ammai)<br /><br />Legend: The great nayanmar, thiruneelanakkar (a brahmin) was lived in this village. He and his wife were great devotees of ayavandeeswara. Once, nayanar's wife saw a spider sitting on the linga and to send that out, she created air from her mouth and forcefully send against the linga. On seeing this, nayanar turned wild and said that she has spitted some saliva drops over swami and hence, he decided to break the relationship with her. He left her in the temple itself and went home. On his dream, swami came and showed his body full of boils. Only in the place where his wife's air spread was protected and the rest of his whole body was filled with boils. He said to nayanar that to show the extreme devotion of you blessed couple I did like this. Then nayanar lived happily with his consort.<br /><br />They both got mukthi at achalpuram during sambandar's wedding.<br /><br />Specialities in Temple:<br />Santhanagopala shrine: You can see a santhana gopala vigraha made in stone. I have not seen usually this vigraha in shivan temples and also this kind of stone sculpture i have not seen anywhere according to my knowledge.<br />Sapthamatha shrine: The shrine of sapthamatha is very beautiful and will face outside the temple.<br /><br />The temple itself is of two parts: one for ayavantheeswara and other for ubayapushpavilochani.<br /><br />Route: It is near thiruchengattangudi. From nannilam-nagapattinam route.<br /><br />If you get down at thirupugaloor, you can visit many temples: Thirupugalur, thiruchengatangudi, thirumarugal, chathamangai, thirukannapuram (both shiva and vishnu temple).</blockquote>

There are so many so many new things in this temple</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">1. There is no ambal at all. I mean you cannot see visible idol form in the sanctom sanctorium to worship.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">2. There is no sanctum sanctorium at all. I mean you cannot see the Garbagruha also as it remained closed forever. All the poojas are done only to the doors of the shrine here.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">3. The offerings here are quite different. The coconuts will not be halved and bananas will not be eye-opened (it means just a prick will be done always as a sign of naivedya, here that wont done)</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">4. Only pure ghee is used for lighting the lamps. That too if you provide ghee to the temple, they can use that only six or seven months later. They have such a stock. But the astonishment is they will keep your ghee as such in a open-godown where you can see lots and lots of ghee pockets, ghee vessels and all. But not even a single ant or fly you can see there. </span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">5. The festival here is Mahashivarathri. Only on this day, the roof of the holy shrine is repaired and rethatched. A separate sect of people from Batlagundu, who will be in fasting for 45 days, will tie their eyes with black cloth and thatch the roof without seeing what is the thing inside the shrine.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">6. As mother is doing penance here, she doesn't want any disturbances. So the town has been shifted a long from this temple. So temple will be alone near a greenery forest in the foothills of kodaikanal and manjal aru (Haridra nadhi) will be flwoing nearby. The scenary there will be like you wont leave the place if you go there.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">7. The cow-sheperd who saw kamakshi as a small child drinking milk from "EENADA KIDRAI PASU" (It means a cow, which has not given birth to young calf. So, naturally expecting milk from such cow is a follish attempt. But kamakshi beacuse of her power did everything), lost his eyesight. Then with the grace of mother, he regains it after touching the idol of kamakshi. (So this sthala is famous for getting eye-sight and also for getting remedy from eye-disorders).</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">LEGEND: After this sheperd lost his eye-sight, mother appeared in the dream of zamindar and said him that "after a week, great rain will splash the city and the manjal aru will be flooded. in that flood, i will come to save you". Similarly, after a week, Haridra nadhi got flooded and a bamboo case came in that. The case was stopped by the bamboos grown in that river-side. Hence the name (MOONGIL- bamboo; ANAI- stopping), (MOONGILANAI). In a hastiness, all the people worshipped amba without halving the coconut and pricking the banana. Amba was totally happy on seeing the bakthi of those people and said them let they continue their worship like this itself. She also added that only "MAAVILAAKKU" should be offered as maha neivdyam ever. </span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">After certain period, there was a fight aroused between Manradiyars (the pusaris of Kamakshi at that time) and zamindar, and zamindar asked them to leave the place. Angrily, the manradiyars cursed the temple that "let the door closed by us shall closed forever" and so only even now we are unable to see the sanctum sanctorium. Even now, the manradiyars sect of people never come to this temple. They even dont walk in this road at all. </span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">The kamakshi amman, is so divine, whatever we wish in our heart, she will fulfill that. The temple will be so calm, without any disturbances we can worship. A very very very nice temple I have ever seen. </span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">I WISH EACH AND EVERY READER OF THIS POST TO HAVE A BEAUTIFUL DARSHAN OF THE TEMPLE.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><b><span style="color: red;">_________________________________________________________________________________</span></b><br />

Therefore, she landed on the earth. Indira was searching for the missing mother and found that she had come to earth. To fulfill the desire of the mother, Indira wanted to take the temple to his place pulling it through his white elephant Iravadha. While he made the attempt, Mother Parvathi made a sound that was sweeter than that of a nightingale, hence the name to the Goddess. Lord Shiva also appeared before Indira and told him to drop the idea of taking the temple to his place and advised him to do the worship on Earth itself and be blessed.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><b style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><br />Visesha moorthy: Shri subramanya (Ursavar)</b><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Shri subramanya holds the bow and the arrow instead of his usual weapon Velayudham, readying for the war against Soorapanma.

Those who have fear of enemies, worship this Muruga for freedom from enemy fear. While Mother Shakthi offered the Vel to Muruga, the Lord gave him the Veeragandamani.

The temple is right opposite the bus station. An impressive 5-tiered gopuram greets you. In this temple from the main gopuram you have to get down steps to reach the temple praharam. Such type of entrance is available only in two temples in TN. When you see the Gopuram from inside it looks like two elephants hauling the gopuram. Stalapuranam says that the two elepants are the one, which helped during the construction of this temple, so in the memory of these elephants the king ordered to provide these stone elephants. The inner courtyard is spacious. A pillared corridor surrounds the courtyard. A <i>nandi </i>shirne stands before the main temple.</span><br /><span style="color: #323232;"><br /><span style="color: #323232;"><u>Entering the temple you will notice the following features</u>:<br /><br /><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Symbol;">·</span>two subsidiary shrines face the main shrine. It is the latter that create a central passage towards the main shrine. I found this scheme to be unique, not seen by me in any temple in Karnataka. Incidentally, this is the first temple I am studying closely as I begin my tour of Tamil Nadu. </span><br /><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Symbol;">·</span>on the left corner of the inner prahara has a small underground cave or <span style="color: #323232;">an underground chamber and antechamber</span> with a stone door, <span style="color: #323232;">which can be accessed by a few steps, <span style="color: black;">which leads us to a spacious shrine of </span><i><span style="color: #323232;">paadhaala lingam</span></i><span style="color: black;"> (UNDERGROUND LINGA). </span><span style="color: #323232;">It is a small stone <i>linga</i>, Just bigger than one’s thumb. We can be sure it’s a <i>linga </i>because it stands on a substantial <i>peeta.</i></span></span></span><br /><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Symbol;">·</span>Here the specialty is Swamy shrine is facing towards west and the Ambal shrine is facing towards east just like a Bride and Broom exchanging their wedding garland. </span><br /><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Symbol;">·</span>just above the Swamy shrine a fantastic sculpture, which depicts the reason for the name Tharamangalam (Tharai + Mangalam), its narrates the marriage of shiva and parvathi, as Mahavishnu handing over Parvathi to Shiva (Tharam varthal). The other main shrine is of Shri Subramanyar. </span><br /><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Symbol;">·</span>the space between these three shrines has a fascinating ceiling. A stone wheel ringed with pecking stone parrots is the highlight. It is claimed that the wheel can be freely rotated. Chains, probably of stone too, hang from the same ceiling. </span><br /><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Symbol;">·</span>the main shrine stands at a level slightly below the level of the </span><i><span style="color: #323232;">pradakshina patha</span></i><span style="color: black;">. A well stands next to the main shrine at the same level. </span><br /><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: Symbol;">·</span>the ambulatory is full of interesting sculptures of gods, goddesses and saints. I admired greatly the figures of Rathi and Manmatha. There is an 18-armed sculpture of Nataraja, excellent by its own merit but not surpassing that of Badami Caves. Included among the saints are the 63 Nayanmars and 4 Nalvars. These are not sculptures for the sake of art alone. The temple is in active use. The sculptures glisten at times in oil. They are often decorated with vermilion and lamps burn in offering before them.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: #323232;">It is the pillars that deserve separate praise. Looking at the details, they are exquisitely carved. Looking at the overall arrangment, they are harmonious. They are formal but not rigid. Each pillar is essentially of a square base with octogonal or 16-sided sections or bands. In every section are carvings in bas-relief. This basic pillar is joined to a much slender pillar by latticed stonework. These two form a composite pillar. At the corners, three such slender pillars together with the primary pillar form the composite pillar. The slender secondary pillars are not just ornamental. They support the overhanging stonework that rises gracefully towards the capital. On some pillars, elephants, horses and lions are beautifully carved. Yalis, or mythical lions, are carved on some pillars. It is said that stone balls in their mouths can be freely rolled.</span><br /><br /><span style="color: #323232;">Tamil Nadu is full of magnificent temples. In the grand scheme of things, no one even notices this temple at Tharamangalam.

After crossing the railway track from Thirusoolam, we can reach the village.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Special Dieties: Though the temple is old, I couldn't get any legends related to this.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">But there are so many special deities which we cannot see in other temples. Let we start with Ganesha.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">1. Nagayagnopaveetha ganapathy- We heard the name of ganapathy in asthothram. But we can see the ganapathy here.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">2. Veerasana Dakshinamoorthy- This even we couldn't hear. The dakshinamoorthy is very charm. A nice sitting posture in veerasana. It means his left leg will be placed in the seat itself but not in the folded form.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">3. Durgadevi- The durgadevi here is in the auspicious form called as "Thribangi". It means folded in three parts (like meenakshi amman).</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">4. The amman thripurasundari is like of chola-type. (I.e. in her two hands she is carrying a lotus and japa-mala, instead of usual pallava-type, where you can see Paasa-angusa)</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">5. A spacious navagraha shrine (infact I never visited such big shrine for navagraha anywhere) with huge sized 9grahas.</span><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><br style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;" /><span style="background-color: #fafafa; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">Although the temple is located even within the chennai limits, most of us are unaware of this temple. Even persons may wonder whether such a quiet village is there within the Chennai locality. Hence I request every chennai reader to visit this treasurous temple atleast once. </span><br />

Saturn or Shani/Sani, the very name inspires awe and makes people shudder. Literature and our customs have painted Lord Saturn in the most terrifying of colors and he is represented as the most malevolent planet, responsible for all the upheavals and disasters in our life.</div>

Yet this is not entirely true. He is not Malevolent(giving bad results), as much as he is much maligned. He is a lot Benevolent and magnificently generous.</div>

There are many special features associated with Planet Saturn- shani/Sani Bahgwan. Amongst all the nine planets, he is the one who is most prominent and attracts our attention towards him.</div>

An old Tamil proverb says<strong>-“There is none who gives so much as Sani and none who ruins as much as Sani”</strong>. He is both an unparalleled benefactor as well as a grim destructer. This has been proved time and again in the course of many centuries and bears eloquent testimony to his greatness. Hence it is quite natural that Lord Saturn has a separate and special temple dedicated to him in the holy place of Tirunallaru, in the Kumbakonam Dist of Tamilnadu.</div>

There is an interesting story of Shani Bhagwan and Ravana. It was the time when Ravan’s wife Mandhodhari was pregnant and was about to deliver Indrajeet. The haughty Ravana with his indomitable anger had ordered all the nine planets and instructed them to occupy the particular houses as chose for the yet-to-be-born Indrajeet. Ravana wanted Indrajeet to be the ruler of all the whole world and have long and illustrious life. Ravana had chosen each house of the zodiac for each planet to seat. The other planets fearing Ravanas wrath did as they were told, but Lord Shani/Sani bhagwan was not so meek and at the exact moment of Indrajeet’s birth, Lord Shani just extended his leg to the next sign of the zodiac(called as the Vakra or crookedness in astrological parlance). As a result, Indrajeet attained all the greatness destined to him early in his life, but died a sudden and early death due to Lord Shani’s mischief. This is the strength and character of this particular planet. he fears none and is inferior to none.</div>

In the upper right and left, he sports a bow and arrow, The lower right and is Varadahasta(boon-giving) and in the lower left hand he carries a sword or trident.

<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>Sade Sati and its effects:</strong></span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
Generally the Sade Sati occurs in our life once in every 22 years. In a verse- Sage Puliappan gives a list of the ill effects which are caused by the 7 1/2 years Sani domination . They are diseases of the head, cholera, smallpox, theft or loss of money and jewels, seizure of land, separation from family, exit from home-town and acquiring a bad name from all around. Even thought he 7.5 years Sani afflicts all people. He causes maximum trouble to those born under Scorpio(Vrischika), Simha(Leo), Cancer(Kataka) rasi natives.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
The period of 7 1/2 is divided into 3 parts of 2 1/2 years. The first round of 2 1/2 is called as Mangu or Decadence Sani, the second round of 2 1/2 years is called as Pongu or Prosperity Sani and the third round of 2 1/2 years is known as Marana or Death Sani.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
Mangu Sani is the period of innumerable evil and bad effects. Pongu Sani ushers in prosperity and Marana Sani period though does not indicate death directly, unless the Maraka Dasa, or the other planetary positions also indicate the same, but it indicates the fear of death and illness.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
Some problems are deterioration of financial condition, loss of job, unnecessary travels and strains, problems in ones profession, shortage of funds, mental worries, aversion, depression etc. There will be wasteful expenditure, unnecessary law suite, if you lend money, it will not come back and if you loan money, you will not be able to return it. Family relations will be strained. Couples will have disagreements, sometimes bitter. Medical expenses will increase. Bodily weakness, dullness, disgrace and theft will occur.</div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
During the third phase however, the ill-effects lessen and there will be help from friends, success in court cases, help from friends and increase in income. Any chronic disease that was troubling as of now ill lessen and the native will feel free and buoyant again.</div>

<span style="color: black;">Saturn is your purpose in life. It’s your life plan, the direction you take, the work you do. It’s your goal, your objective, the lessons you must learn along the way. It is patience, honesty, trust, objectivity, and common sense. It’s the structure of your life, the foundations upon which you build and how you build your life. </span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">In Indian astrology, Saturn is considered to be a malefic amongst the malefic but its last effect is happy. A prayer to this Devata, especially on Saturdays, is said to mitigate the hardships one will have to face during these periods. Sanischara bestows all benefits to the devotees who pray sincerely to him.</span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Saturn is a karaka, or indicator, of longevity, misery, sorrow, old age and death, discipline, restriction, responsibility, delays, ambition, leadership and authority, humility, integrity, wisdom born of experience. Saturn also indicates asceticism, denial, non-attachment, spirituality, hard work, organization, reality and time itself.</span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Saturn is a particularly beneficial planet for Taurus and Libra Ascendants. In Vedic myth Saturn is the son of the Sun, born to his shadow wife, Chaya. Saturn is lame because one of the Sun’s first wife Sanjana’s children became angered with him and struck him in the foot. Thus Saturn walks with a limp, which accounts why he is the slowest of the Grahas.</span></div>

<span style="color: black;"><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Sade Sati</span> (7.5 year of Saturn transit in the 12th, 1st and 2nd house from the moon)</strong></span></h2>

<span style="color: black;">The graha SANISCHARA (Saturn), also known as Manda, is generally known to affect one adversely on occasions when he occupies certain positions in one’s horoscope like Sade Sati (7.5 years- saturn in the 12th, 1st and 2nd house from the moon), Ashtama Shani (Saturn in 8th house from the moon), Ardha Ashtama Shani (Saturn in the 4th house from the moon) etc.</span></div>

<span style="color: black;">Planet Saturn is constantly teaching lessons. It causes delays so you may learn patience, it causes trouble so you may learn to be honest with yourself and others and to teach you to be objective. It balances Jupiter’s expansiveness with prudence, Jupiter’s luck with practicality, Jupiter’s enthusiasm with soberness and conservation – in short it is the opposite of Jupiter.</span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; font-family: 'Droid Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; padding: 0px 0px 15px; text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: black;">Where Jupiter is the optimist, Saturn is the pessimist. Saturn gives direction to the rest of the planets. They will all operate according to where Saturn is placed and how it’s aspected. Perhaps this is better understood by saying that your life revolves around your work or your objective.</span></div>

<span style="color: blue;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: blue;"><b>This is not a Rasi Palan Item.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Before Reading Rasi Palan One must Think the following. Nowadays astrology has become business & commercial. They themselves contradict between themselves in Predictions . One should not be upset over Shaneeswar Transit to unfavourable places like 12,1&2 (7.5) or Ashtamam,Arthashtamam etc., </b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>You see 8 is Sanis favourite number. How can he will bedoing continuously unfavourable things when he sits in 8th place. It is a proverb that : "Sani koduppathai Yaraalum Thadukka Mudiyaathu" In fact If One is enjoying Vibareetha Raja Yogam he will get even Kingdom only by Shanis effect. </b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Whatever may be his period - seven&half, ashtamam,arthashtamam - Shani will Give /reward very memorably at the time of leaving such places. This has been sensed by almost all astrologers. </b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Sani palangal shall be taken in permuting with current dasa puthis, His position in Janma Jathakam & his Paarvais etc as per janma jathakam etc., - if married gents - position of the same in Wife janana jathakam Or Wife's current planets position. And generally these permutations will result in Compensating Effects of planets @ a given time, eventhough, general forecasts may be unfavourable.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>HENCE DONT GET EXCEPTIONALLY UPSET OR OVER JOYOUS BY GENERAL ARTICLES REGARDING THIS. DO LIFE AS USUAL.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Visit The Temple @ Sani Peyarchi Day & Pray Thats all That is for creating self confidence.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>As Mr Gopinath pointed out in Neeya/Naana OR as Cho pointed out - No astrologer ( during their interviews through various medias) has Predicted Mr Rajiv Gandhis Death During Second Phase Election Campaign long back. Fate is Fate. All pre- determined ones</b></span><br />

<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>The Following are Extracts From Mahaa Periyavaa Speeches available in many Sites regarding Shaneeswarar.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>1- Lord Shaneeswarar is not a Horror Graha Or Raakkshas. He is the God who gives Punishment /benefits To the People for the Good Or Bad done by the People in their Earlier Births / Current Birth also.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>2- He is just like a judge who is giving judgement</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>3- As a human being and as per Our hindu Beliefs we have to be given punishments for our sins in our earlier births also if it is as per our fate , as determined earlier.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>4- We can not change this by giving in much to the Gods and escape from our sins. If it is so , the essence of Hinduism that Each Sins must be Punished may become false. It is not so.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>5- Punishment is in so many ways. We can Pray to Gods that We have understtod our Sins, repent for that and will do never such sins in future. Shani Preethi Etc will Please the God and He may give a less painful Punishments. Hardships can not be felt much , if we concentrate on Divine matters consistently.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>It will be easy to be pacified and We will get mental piece even though we may be under Shani Clutches.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>All the Slokas,Manthras are to give us Mental Peace and Strength to face any difficulty etc.,</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #783f04;"><b>Periyaa himself have told devotees ro Read "KOLARU PATHIKAM" in Tamil sung by Appar Swamikal to have lesser affected by Lord Shaneeswarar. Reciting this Daily morning @ Pooja time will give us enough strength, peaceful happy life even when we are under Ashtama Sani, Arthashtama Sani 7 and 1/2 etc.,</b></span><br />

<span style="color: blue;"><b>We are mentioning Lord saneeswarar temples , comparatively less popular ,but powerful with ancient history:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: blue;"><b>2- Saneeswarar Temple at Sivagangai:</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b> This is one of the only few temples exclusively for Lord shaneeswarar. It is heard from Maha periyavaa history that Maha periyavaa has a Shaneeswarar idol during shani dasa period and prayed for universal well being. After that purpose is solved He has given that Idol to a Settiyar Devotee from sivagangai area and ask him to place the diety in his temple. The Settiyar has constructed a small temple at Masjid Street, Sivagangai with Lord Ganesh etc.,The temple main diety is Shaneeswarar only. since the Idol worshipped by Maha periyavaa swami - highly powerful if worshipped properly. Located in the heart of the Sivaganga Town.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>____________________________________________________________________________</b></span>
<span style="color: blue;"><b>3-Saneeswarara temple at Yerikuppam village,Polur Taluka thiruvannamalai dist. Here the shaneeswarar is in Yanthra Roopam in Moolasthanam. this also a temple exclusively for Shaneeswarar.Only recently renovation works started for a Prahara mandapam etc., to this small temple - but highly powerful. Worshipping Gods in Yanthra Roopam in temple and that too Yanthram installed by Munis long back, will be highly responded by the respective Gods. As per Mahaa Periyavaa advises , Lords Shaneeswarar, Navagrahas,Bhairavar and all Shiva Ganangal will be hearing our Prayers only if it is made through proper channel. All Shivaganangal are under control of Shiva and If we worship periodically Lord shiva with devotion as per our family practice , it will be enough to satisfy navagraha doshas etc., He also satirically uesd to tell Navagrahas/Yama are like shivaganangal ( Dhaadhaas or Bodyguards)in shivalogam and Devotees shall visit them only along with Lord Shiva and only on specific occasions like Sani Peyarchi / sani dasa puthi periods /dosha periods we shall make homams to "preethi" them. If we do "Preethi" to them very often without worshipping Lord Shiva universal Leader - It will be improper.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>We shall Pray on our janma nakshatras or in the unfavourable transit periods etc only to Navagrahas/yama..</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>_________________________________________________________________________________</b></span>
<span style="color: blue;"><b>4- Lord Shaneeswarar Temple situated at Dindigul Rockfort foothill @ backside of the famous Kottai Mariyamman Temple.the history of the Temple is not known. But privately managed temple by a Poosari family.Only shaneeswarar sannathi is there in a small moolasthanam.Temple has Praharams and vast scope for improvement. The Temple might have been constructed along with Kottai Mariyamman Temple about 3-400 years back During Malikkapoor period by Hindu soldiers in the Rani Velu Nachiyar regime or thippu sulthan regime.It is to be noted here that Rani velu Nachiyar , after defeated by British Team in first Fight had stayed in the Dindigul Fort & got war training by Thippu Sulthan Team of Soldiers.She stayed here in exile for a long period before her Second Historic fight in early 1700s and she got victory and the then British Governor general had almost given a undertaking like adimai sasanam to Velu Nachiyar and never fight with her till her last breath.Rani Velu Nachiyar is strong devotee to God rajarajeswari amman ( still in sivagangai fort) and Shivaperuman. One of her war team might have built this. This is the place of Siththars and almost all siththars belong to this area - Kasavanampatty Mounaguruswamikal, Sri Othaswamikal , Dindigul maliyadisiththaar etc., have prayed here</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>_________________________________________________________________________________</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>5- Lord Saneeswarar Temple - Padithurai @ Sozhavanthaan on the Banks of vaigai. this is also exclusive Lord shaneeswarar Temple , ancient - and visited by Thirunavukkarasar .the story behind this Temple has links with Kuruvithurai ( which is a Guru Parihara sthaalam) on the same bank of Vaigai within few kilometers.</b></span><br />

<span style="color: blue;"><b>6- Thirunaraiyur Mangalsaeeswarar @ Ramanathaswami Thirukovil.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>Very near to Kumbakonam near Nachiyarkoil diversion. Dasarathar have installed here Ramanathaswami Kovil with Lord Shaneeswarar in a separate sannathi with his wife & children.Only in this Temple Saneeswarar is with his family at a same peetam Blessing all devotees. there is a dasarathar sannathi praying to Moolavar Sannathi. In this temple The Guru bhagawan is on Rishaba Vahanam - speciality.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: blue;"><b>_________________________________________________________________________________</b></span>
<span style="color: blue;"><b>7- Alangudi- Pudukkottai District near Pudukkottai. This place is earlier known as Kadaram Konda Sozhapuram, perur Andaan, - means the temple built by Rajendra Sozhan son of Rajaraja cholan long back.</b></span><br />

When he came to this village he fell down by a Vilaam Tree Roots in aPond now known as Gnana Vapi. By the sacred water of thaat Pond His deformity disapperaed and Saneeswarar became normal. That is due to his annadaanam. Shivaperuman appeared before him and Blessed for his marriage with Jeshta & Mantha. Gnana Vaapi theertham is highly powerful for removing all deformities. Days combined with Poosam,Saturday & Akshaya thrithiyai are the the best day to worship here.</b></span><br />

<li style="margin: 0px; padding: 2px 0px;"><b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Ettiathali:</b> <br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />This village is about 8kms from <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Aranthangi </b>of<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"> Pudhukottai district.</b> The temple dates back to some 2000 years.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Lord Siva of this place was worshipped by <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Agasthaya muni. </b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Main deity is<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"> Swayambu Lingam known as Agastheeswarar and his consort Akilandeswari.</b><br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Purana says once <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Agasthyar </b>was traveling from <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">kasi to Rameswaram</b>, he had to perform his daily rituals so he stopped at this place, to do his Siva pooja. There is a pushkarani near by. He performed pooja and he had to stay back for the night in the temple. <br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />At the same time <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">King Kalingarayan</b> was there with his force in the same village in a matt. As per his fate he was in the grip of <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Ashtama san</b>i period and he performed pooja at <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Rameswaram, </b>and Lord Sani pooja at Thirunallaru as per guidance of his jyothish. <br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />On his way back as it was night he stayed in this village for that day. King and Agasthya muni when they met here, to get rid of Lord Sani’s grip on him, King was asked to built a temple for the Siva lingam, in this place. He asked him to install<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Navagrahas</b>. Here <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Sani </b>is placed visible to <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Agastheeswarar </b>from inside to NE direction.<br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Another unique thing is <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Ragu and Kethu</b> are exchanged there place unlike the normal trend. <br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />We see <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Goddess Akilandeeswari</b> in a sanctum near the main Deity Agastheeswarar, and the <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Goddess Akila</b> near the Navagraha. <br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />Purana says Lord Siva had <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Kalathra dosha</b> and when Agasthya muni worshipped Lord Siva, he was out of the dosha. So, Muni installed <b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Goddess Akilandeswari</b>near the main sanctum. Goddess Akila, known as<b style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"> Navagraha Nayaki</b> is near the Navagraha, so the grahas are considered powerful. <br style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" />As per purana Kalathra dosham and Sani dosham can be rectified by worshipping Lord Agastheeswarar of this place. AS THE SORY TELLS THIS TEMPLE IS VERY EFFECTIVE FOR ASHTAMA SANI. VERY EFFECTIVE FOR RAHU,KETHU THOSHAM. THE NAVAGRAHA DIETIES ARE INSTALLED BY AGASTHIYA MAHARISHI WITH CONTROL BY GODDESS AKILANDESHWARI NEAR NAVAGRAHAMS - MAINLY TO REMOVE DOSHAMS TO KING KALINGARAYAN. PRAYING HERE ON JANMA NAKSHATHRAS WITH POOJA AND AKILANDESWARI STHOTHRAMS WILL BE VERY EFFECTIVE. THE VILLAGE,TEMPLE ALL IN A BAD SHAPE. SOME PHILANTHROPHISTS CAN ADOPT THIS WILLAGE AND I AM SURE IF ANYBODY TAKES INITIATIVE TO REBUILD THIS TEMPLE DEFINITELY WHATEVER THEY WISH, WILL BE GRANTED BY GODDESS AKILA, lORD AGASTHEESWARAR, AGASTHIYA MAAMUNI & NAVAGRAHAS.</li>

<strong><br /></strong>
<strong>Story behind Karthigai </strong><br />
Once Brahma and Vishnu due to the ego started arguing with each other "
who is the greatest". Both claimed to be the greatest, instead of doing
their duty. At that time the God Shiva appeared in the form of fire and
told them whoever finds the top or bottom of the fire is the greatest.
Brahma took the form of Annam (a bird) and tried to find the top of the
frle pillar. Vishnu took the form of <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13">Varaha</span>(
giant pig) and tried to see the bottom of the pillar. As the God has no
limit in his size or power, both of them could not see either top or
bottom of the fire. When their ego went down and they prayed the God, He
appeared before them. The day in which the God appeared as a pillar of
fire is <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14">Thirukarthigai</span>/<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15">Karthigai</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16">Deepam</span>. </div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
</div>
<div>
Lord Shiva appeared as a hill (Arunachala Hill) at Tiruvannamalai in
Tamil Nadu. Indeed, the very names `Tiruvannamalai' and `Arunachala'
translate as `holy fire hill.' The Shivalinga in the temple here is the
agni linga. The tiny lamps lit during the Karthigai festival (Karthigai
Deepam) are believed to be the miniature replicas of the fire linga.
Every year thousands of devotees from Chennai and elsewhere flock to
Tiruvannamalai to see the spectacular Karthigai Deepam there.<br />
This <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17">vradha</span> indicates the non measurable <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18">infiniteness</span> of the God and shows that the God is the light that will drive away our ignorance. Lamps are lit in the houses to pray His "<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19">Jyothi</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20">Swarupam</span>".<br />
<br />
First day of this festival is called as "<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21">Appakarthigai</span>" and the second day is called as "<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22">vadai</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23">karthigai</span>". All devotees will offer <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"><a href="http://www.subbuskitchen.com/2009/11/pori-urundai.html">pori</a></span>,<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"><a href="http://www.subbuskitchen.com/2009/11/adhirasam_24.html">adhirasam</a></span>,<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26"><a href="http://www.subbuskitchen.com/2009/08/vella-seedaisweet-seedai.html">vella Seedai</a></span>, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28">vetrilai</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29">pakku</span>,fruits as <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30">neivedhyam</span> for God Shiva.<br />

<strong>Why we light Elephant lamp on Karthigai ?</strong></div>
<div>
Once upon a time there lived a King and he had only one daughter. She
loved an elephant which grew with her and she considered the elephant as
her own brother. After her marriage she missed her brother elephant
very much. So for every <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_37">Thirukarthigai</span>/<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_38">Karthigai</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39">deepam</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_40">occasion</span>, she will light elephant lamp(<span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_41">Gajalakshmi</span> <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_42">vilaku</span>) and she will prepare tender coconut, elephant leg size <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_43">milagu</span> MILAGU ADAI,ATHIRASAM.PORI URUNDAI, AVAL URUNDAI,KADALAI URUNDAI , PANIYAARAM etc.,and keep them as <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_47">neivedhyam</span> for this festival.<br />
<br />
So we on this auspicious <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_48">occassion</span> all devotees should chant the following lines</div>

<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>SIMPLE PARIHAARANGAL FOR VARIOUS PROBLEMS </b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>In olden days , immediately after making food one of the family members used to keep a bit of Rice & Dall with Ghee to Crows . this is done daily after performing Poojah & Naivedyam to the Gods images in the House. Similarly we used to keep a small mud tank outside the house in a Corner with Water(Kazhuneer) there we used to pour the wasteges of vegetables, cooking wastes</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>and all water wastes. That will be taken by the Cattle going through the Streets. If the Tank is empty, The Cattle will give a sound and somebody from the house will then atleast put some water in the tank. See how much we had been accustomed to live affectionately with surrounding animals. </b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>These things are now being advised by Astrologers/Philanthrophists as a measure of Parihaaram for various things.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>If having belief in Hinduism, Please try to be a genuine Hindu by following Hindu Culture, Having Faith in Hindu Beliefs, and leading life without avoiding family heriditary rituals in routines etc.,</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>1. Our Ancestors lived places nearby river banks, constructing houses around a Temple already in exietence there. They used to have proximity to Earth,Water,Clean Air Etc., We have to live , if in apartments, it shall be within 3 floors. Then only, the life will be earthly life. There shall be free way for air from all sides either through windows/ any other means. </b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>We have to keep Small Kitchen Plants in the available Balcony spaces.This will facilitate birds to come & stay.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>2. Daily we shall grant food to Birds that will come. If food,cereals with water kept separately outside the window, even if no birds come initially, Few birds come in due course and depending on your punctuality, at the routine time.If the habit is deevelopped, arrangements shall be made for Birds feeding , during our absence in the apartment.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>3. We have to feed the cows/cattle in any of the Goshalas nearby periodically. It is not merely donating money for feeding- But either purchasing cattle feeds from our money and handing over to the Cattle personally. Or atleast hand over the cattle feeds personally to the caretaker of the cattle.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b>4. In oldendays every family used to support needy youth - either by feeding daily in the house and treating them as one of the family members , aiding the needy by paying School fees etc., and giving support to the needy in all the possible ways. As a revalidation of this, we can help, needy students nearby in all the possible ways. Doing Annadaanams in the Home for children.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: #cc0000;"><b><br /></b></span>
