Temples around Guruvayoor/Trichur - Puthur Shiva Temple

[Guest guest]

Namaste,

 

You left out one more temple. The powerful Puthur Shiva Temple in Perintalmanna.

Read about it on:

http://puthurshivatemple. blogspot. com (without the spaces)

 

Join the two japam groups and experience first hand the power of Puthur Shiva.

 

People came to us at the beginning of the year scared about the economy and we

said " Never mind the economy. Do Japam. Focus on Shiva. " Now six months into

the year, we are all standing, and the people who came to us crying are laughing

being in the warm embrace of Lord Shiva and Parvati.

 

Then there was a woman who came crying to us about her health. We said " Do more

japam. Focus on Shiva " and now a year later, she is still alive, with so much

tejas, I am sure her western doctor is scratching his head, wondering if his

medical degrees are worth much!!!

 

For some reason, Puthur Shiva is a very family friendly God. You will believe it

when you surrender to him. I hope you all will be able to visit the Puthur Shiva

temple some day.

 

With regards,

LK

story behind it. This is a small hill temple situated about 7 km away on the

Trissoor- Triprayar (via Palakkal) route. At the Palakkal junction another road

to the right leads to Ammadom and farther. If one takes this route for a km or

so a subsediary road on the right leads to this hill temple. It is not very far

from the Palakal junction. Ask anyone at Palakkal and they will be pleased to

give directions.

that place and the temple is on top of the tallest hill.

Vanawasa, rested there which then was a jungle. Panchali was tired and said she

would very much like to take a bath. Looking around, there was no trace of any

water nearby ; no river or pond.

had a prolonged dip in the cool water.

the 5 Pandava brothers , the biggest hill being that of Bhima.

tallest hill. THere is also a deep well within the temple prescinct. A thirumeni

used to conduct daily poojas.
