RE: Sri Dhanwanthari Temples in Kerala [1 Attachment]

[Guest guest]

Guruvayoorappa,

 

Dear Devotees of the Lord,

 

There is a Dhanwanthari Moorthy (MahVishnu) Temple at Peringavu, Trissur- 18,

nearly 5 Kms from the Square,

 

towards Rama Varma Puram Route (Engineering College Route). The temple is not so

big, but recently renovated, and is beautiful.

 

The officials there are so nice with sincere commitments. Amidst the many

offerings to Lord there, I most like

 

'Aayurarogya Sooktha Pushpanjali', which is charged only Rs. 10/- even now and

the most attraction is that you

 

can book it for one year, one per month, and they will send you the prasad

invariably after the pooja, by post.

 

The temple is known famos for curing incurable diseases if one stay 'Bhajanam'

there.

 

Padaravindame Saranam, Guruvayoorappa Saranam.

Thanks,

Regards,

 

Have a great day,

Sincerely,

The vow not to kill is great indeed, and greater still is non-eating of the

flesh; there would be no butcher, if there is non to eat; in eating thus abides

the cruder ill, as she/he is the reason for the killing.

[Guruvayur] Sri Dhanwanthari Temples in Kerala

Sri Dhanwanthari is the God of Medicine

 

Temples of Sri Dhanwanthari in Kerala are

 

Sri Dhanwanthari Temple

Maruthorvattom, Chertala, Kerala, India

 

Maruthorvattom is derived from 'Marunnu Oru Vattam' which in malayalam means a

single dose of medicine given by the famous Ayurvedic doctor!

 

Sri Dhanwanthari Temple

Prayikkara, Mavelikkara, Kerala, India

 

Sri Dhanwanthari Temple

Nelluvaya, Kunnamkulam, Thrissur, Kerala, India

 

From Kolazhy, reach Wadakkancherry and from Wadakkancherry, it is 5 to 6KM on

the way to Erumapetty. On the main road itself you an see the board and entrance

to the temple. Anyone else who is more familiar with the area may please add to

this...

 

Sri Dhanwanthari Temple

Thottuva, Perumbavoor, Kalady, Kerala, India

 

Read that all were related in one way or other to Mooss family, who had their

roots in Wadakancherry in Thrissur District.

 

Pulamanthole Sree Rudra Dhanwanthari Temple

 

The temple is located at Pulamanthole. The deity is Sree Rudra Dhanvanthari. The

temple is ancient to 3500 years.

 

Initially the temple was known as Pulamanthole Shiva temple when the deity was

Shiva. Later on the deity of Dhanwanthari was added. Thereafter the temple came

to be known in the present name. There is an interesting legend behind it.

 

The temple was constructed by Ashtavaidya Pulamanthole Mooss family as their

family shrine. The Pulamanthole Mooss family was and is very famous in the

Dhanwanthari wing of Ayurveda science. The Maharaja of Travancore was inflicted

by a severe stomach pain. The treatment given by many famed physicians gave no

relief. As an ultimate source for cure the King sent messengers to Pulmanthole

Mana. When the message for treatment received only a lady and his child were in

the Mana. Upanayanam (a hereditary ceremony before initiating to the ancient

science of Ayurveda in ancient families) was not yet done by the boy. The mother

and son were upset as to what to do. The mother finally told the messengers that

his son will come after completing 12 days Bhajana (prayers) in their family

temple and advised the son to start the prayers. A Sanyasi (monk) appeared

before the boy on the 12th night and gave 3 tablets and assured him that these

tablets will cure the King. The Sanyasi further added that he should not accept

any of the gifts offered by the cured happy King.. Instead, request the King to

allow to take the idol of Dhanwanthari lying in the Tamarapani River and install

the same at the left side of the idol of Shiva and build a shrine for it, the

Sanyasi added. The Sanyasi was the manifestation of Shiva and disappeared soon.

 

There are only few Ashtavaidya families in Kerala. Pulamanthole Mana has a

prominent position amongst them. This wing of the Ayurveda science is extant in

Kerala from ancient times. Karnatic Music Emperor, Sree Chembai Vaidyanatha

Bhagavathar was once severally inflicted by paralysis. He tried many physicians,

from different branches of health science, but proved futile. Ultimately he was

cured by Pulamanthole Mooss. The Nadapura (sheltered pathway) of the temple was

built by the Bhagavathar as an offering.

 

The people believe and testify that all ailments can be cured with the blessings

of Lord Dhanwanthari. Many devotees throng to the temple daily with offerings.

Pranamam Jayakrishnanji,

Nelluval Sree Dhanwanthari Temple

Nelluval Sree Dhanwanthari Temple, East of Kunnamkulam enroute to Wadakkancherry

- South side of the road. Important Nelluvai Ekadasi in Dhanu ( Suklapaksha ) or

Vaikunta Ekadasi. A peculiar prasadam offered here is made up of turmeric,

pepper, curd and salt and it is used as a precious medicine. Those who are

coming from Palakkad and turn to Pazhayannur from Alathur and to Thiruvilwamala,

panjal and to south ottupara ( near wadakkancherry ) and then via kundannur can

visit this temple.

 

with prayers,

Namaste!

 

In case nobody made any reference to the Dhanvantari temple near Vadakkancherry,

Thrissur District, may be that should be added to the list. It is one of the

few temples for Dhanvantarmoorthi and I have not been to any other one.

 

Hari Om!
