[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

 

 

This week's Podcast is about " Arulmigu Vakrakaliamman

Thirukovil,Thiruvakkarai " .

Thiruvakkarai

is a place where one can find shrines of Lord Siva, Lord Vishnu and Goddess

Shakti together. The sacred bathing ghat of this place is the Varaaga river.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lord Siva's name is 'Pirai

Soodiya Peruman' and He is also called Chandra Mouleeswarar. The Lingam here is

the Gnanalingam and has three faces (Bhrama, Vishnu and Shiva). The east face

is known as Thatpurudam, north face is known as Vaamadevam and the south face

is known as Agoram.

 

 

 

 

The idol of a six feet tall

Lord Varadharaja Perumal can be seen in a separate temple and it is said He

appeared before His devotees after killing the demon at this place.

 

 

 

 

As soon as one crosses the

rajagopuram, one can see the sanctum sanctorum of Vakrakaali. She appears with

a skull on her head as crown, a dead foetus on her right ear, and has eight

hands.
