re : englishman prappatiu

[Guest guest]

dear srivaishnavas

Being born at madhurantagam i am happy to hear

this event(not story) again and again...i have heard

it no of times from my grandma but still i feel

immense pleasure in hearing this...i also have a

another information

Only in this place MOOLA RAMAR is holding the

hand of his beloved wife SITA..this happened when

RAVANA VATHAM was over and inorder to give darshan to

a maharishi he got down from pusphaka vimana ...so he

gives his hand as a support to get down...morever i

have also heard that KAMBAR who wrote ramayana in

tamil also staged his ramayana here. so those who are

in and around chennai dont forget to visit "eri katha

RAMAR " and get his divine blessings

 

the temple is a big one with hanuman welcoming us by

the side of temple tank and on entering we can see the

 

MOOLA RAMAR with all his brothers....thayar sannidi as

said is near to temple built by ENglish

man...recently they have constructed chakratarvar

sannidi....TEMPLE thER(CAR) festival is very famous

and draws crowd from neighbouring villages....

 

 

sadly this place doesnt appear in 108 divya

desams...

 

 

ERIKATHA RAMAR ELLORAYUM KAKAttum

 

venkata krishnan
