[ramanuja] Pazhaiya Seevaram Paarivettai (tEpperumAL)

SrI:

 

Dear SrIvasihnavas,

 

Pazhaiya Seevaram aka Sripuram, is a lovely little village with a

temple for Lord Narasimha atop a small hillock, about 15 km east of

Kanchipuram on the road to Chengalpattu.

The hill temple is visited by Lord Varadaraja (tEpperumAL) of

Kanchipuram on the day following Makara-Sankaranthi, for what is

known as ``Pazhaiya Seevaram Paarivettai''.

Paarivettai is observed to mark the destruction of evil forces by the

Lord and is celebrated in almost all SrIvaishnavite temples.

 

SrI.Vanamamalai Padmanabhan svami has captured a few snaps of

Devaperumal (Kanchipuram) while visiting this hilltop temple during

Paarivettai, two days back.

Thanks to SrI.Padmanbhan svami, who describes the arial view as: " the

steps leading to Sri narasimhar temple, the mandapam-s, the sprawling

palar river-bed bereft of water, (it is said that the water runs

underneath) the devoteees and the visitors."
