Guest guest Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Some time back, there was a discussion in this group regarding some coastal temples and the Tsunami. This article appeared in a local newspaper named " Thane Style " on 15th January 2005 published in Thane, Maharashtra State. ========================================================= TSUNAMI : MIRACLE IN THE TEMPLE Thiruchendur Lord Murugan Temple is on the sea shore within 100 metres of the waves. The temple is a cave with the entrance at the sea level and the cave inside is sliding down to the Sanctum Sanctorum of Lord Subramaniyam (Murugan). When we stand in front of the deity, the sea water level outside is higher than out heads. There is every likely hood that tidal waves and tsunamis can rush in and fill the cave Temple with sea water. In the history of the Temple, it is mentioned that Water God (Lord Varuna) has promised Lord Murugan that he will not cross the boundary of the Temple. It seems that Water God has kept his promise. While the tsunami on 26/12/2004 has lashed the coast of India and inundated all places near the coast deeply, the sea water did not enter the Temple. At 10:00 Hrs. on the fated date (26/12/2004), the sea near the temple receded by a Kilometre 0 people could see there a big crater with rocks visible - gradually the sea cam back to its original level. But sea water has entered Jeeva Nager located opposite Thiruchendur Bus Stand at 12:30 pm. All other coastal areas near Thiruchendur were affected by the lashing of the tsunami. The Temple area was unaffected as the sea receded there as though to keep the promise given. ======================================================= ===== || Thiruchitrambalam || ______________________ India Matrimony: Find your life partner online Go to: http://.shaadi.com/india-matrimony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
