Mahalingaswamy temple, Thiruvidaimarudur is one among the three important Saivite shrines in India which adopt Maruda tree (Terminalia arjuna - Myrtales - Combretaceae family - commonly known as arjuna; Marudam tree in Tamil) as their holy tree (Sthala vriksha) and hence it is also known as Idai Marudur aka Madhyaarjuna in Thiruvidaimarudur, near Kumbakonam, Thanjavur district. The other two Saivites shrines are Mallikarjuna (Thalai Marudur ) temple in Sri Sailam, Andhra Pradesh and in Thiruppudaimarudur (Kadai Marudur aka Sputarjuna) in Ambasamudram, Thirunelvelli district. This temple is more spacious with three circumambulatory paths i.e, 1. Aswametha prakaram; 2. Kodumudi prakaram and 3. Pranava prakaram. Going around Aswametha prakaram will yield the benefit of performing aswametha yagam; going around Kodumudi prakaram is equivalent to Mount Kailash Parikrama; and circumambulation of Pranava prakaram will bring liberation soul from rebirth (moksha).<br />
<br />
Mahalingam (huge self manifested (Swayambu) Shiva lingam) is presiding deity and the consort Brihatsundaragujambigai aka Nanmulainayaki at this ancient Saivite shrine. The Shiva linga is also considered as Jothirlinga and Sakthi shrine is also known as one of the Sakthi Bheetas. The Chakra Maha Meru is installed at this shrine. The temple with its imposing tower (gopuram) is one of the Panchakroha shrines. <br />
<br />
The five Shivalingams: 1. Mahalingam at centre; 2. Viswanatha; 3. Rishipureeswara; 4. Athmanatha and 5. Chokkanatha at this shrine form Panchalinga khetra (Five Linga shrines). The shrine also has 27 Shiva Lingas for the 27 siderial constellations (star groups) and the devotees offer prayer pujas to the concerned Shiva Lingam as remedial measure against Nakshatra doshas. The temple is considered as holy as Varanasi or Kasi. <br />
<br />
A group of 12 independent temples have adopted Lord Mahalingaswamy as their presiding deity and the following 12 temples form associate (parivara shrines) temples: </div>

Priests used mud pots to fetch water from river Cauvery for ablution purposes. <br />
<br />
In Hindu astrological traditions, Brahmahathi dosha is considered as severe curse. This kind of doshas occurs if any one kills a brahmin (Hathi- sin caused by a murder – Brahminicide). The shtala purana indicates that Varaguna Pandiya’s horse accidentally crushed a Brahmin and killed him. The sin followed wherever he went. The Brahmahathi was chasing the king. The king sought asylum to Lord Mahalingaswamy. He entered from the front entrance and offered prayers and got out from the rear entrance. The Brahmahathi is still waiting outside the entrance for the king. The king was relieved of his sin. People inflicted with mental disorders may go around the circumambulatory path and get redress.<br />
<br />
The Lord is being worshipped here by Vedas, Airawatha (Elephant vehicle of Indra) and the seven great saints - Vashista, Agasthya, Pattinathar, Badragiriyar, Romarishi, Kapila and Markandiya rishi and the Tamil Siddhar Shivavakya. The Lord is also gracing the kings Varagunadeva, Sukeerthi, Veerasena, Chitrakeerthi, Uvanasuvan, Maandada, Vasuman and Anjatthuvasan. The Lord was also invoked by Appar and Sundarar with Thevaram hymns.<br />
<br />
The ancient temple has 159 inscriptions. One specific inscription documents the presence of theatre (Natakasala) for enacting dramas. The theatre artists received patronage from kings and one veli (approximately 3 acre) of cultible land was granted as gift to the artist for nurturing the art. The koothu (a form of folk drama) artists performed different styles of koothu including Arykoothu and Chakkaikoothu during festival time. The temple also served as the centre for fostering fine arts.<br />
<br />
Arulmigu Mahalingaswamy Temple, Thiruvidaimarudur - 612 104, Thanjavur district is located 9 km north of Kumbakonam on Kumbakonam - Mayiladuthurai road. The shrine is well connected by public transport system.<br />

In short it comprise one part silicon and two parts oxygen. Quartz belongs to the trigonal crystal system. The crystal habit ideal crystal shape is a six-sided prism (geometry) prism terminating with six-sided pyramids at each end.<br /><br />Spatikam is the semi-precious gemstone. There are many different varieties of spatikam. High quality quartz crystals are single-crystal silica with optical or electronic properties that make them suitable for hardstone carvings. The Hindu temples in South India use this semi-precious mineral for making Shiva Lingams. Spatikam beads are made from translucent rose quartz are cut and polished as beads.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lord Venketeshwara is also known as the Lord of seven hills (Seshadri, Neeladri, Garudadri, Anjanadri, Vrishabhadri, Narayanadri and Venkatadri.) The seven hills are believed to represent the seven hoods of Lord Adisesha. The holy abode Lord Venketeshwara is at Venkatadri or Venkatachala, the seventh peak.<br />
<br />
No one could find an equal place like Venkatadri and no god is so benevolent and graceful than Lord Venketeshwara. Tirumala Tirupati is considered as one among the 108 Divya Desams (Praised Al wars Vaishanava Saints). There are about 202 hymns sung by nine Alwars i.e, Perialwar (7 hymns), Andal (16 hymns), Thiruppaan Alwar (2 hymns), Kulasekaralwar (11 hymns), Thirumazhisaialwar (14 Hymns), Poigaialwar (10 hymns), Boothathalwar ( 9 hymns), Peialwar ( 19 hymns), Nammalwar ( 52 hymns), Thirumangaialwar 62 hymns), Grand Total 202 hymns.<br />
<br />
1. The Holy Hymns of Alwars, Asthta-Dasa Puranam, the Hindu epics and Shastras praise the benign presence and benevolent grace of the Lord Venketeshwara. Every Hindu considers that a pilgrimage to Tirumala and Tirupati is a unique soul-stirring experience. The importance of the pilgrimage to Tirumala and Tirupati is explained in Rig Veda and Puranas.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
2. On your way to the main temple complex (about one kilometer away), you will find the most ancient (2500 million years old) and rare structured and decorated stones called Sila Thorana and such kind of rare kind of stone formations will not be found anywhere in the world. It is believed that the icon of the Lord found in the Sanctum Sanctorum also belongs to this age.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
3. Therefore on the icon of the Lord always maintains a standard temperature of around 110 degree Fahrenheit. Is it not a surprise? There is always a cold climate prevails around this 3500 feet tall hill temple. On Thursdays before the ablution or abhishekam the temple priests (while removing the robes) find that the icon exhibits warm temperature. As soon as the priests complete ablution or abhishekam (during early morning 4.30 am), the rare stone icon show water particles like human sweating. The temple priests gently wipe the water particles from the icon using a fine silk cloth. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
4. You can prostrate yourself and worship the prime deity Lord Venketeshwara, awesome eight feet tall icon, at the Sanctum sanctorum of the temple. The Anandha Nilaya Diva Vimanam, dome like tower above the Sanctum sanctorum, is guild ed with glittering gold sheets.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
5. You can witness Namam (thick white mark worn by Vaishanavites on their forehead) on the forehead of the Lord. The temple priests used draw this thick double patched white religious mark on Lords forehead using Pachai karpooram or refined camphor. You will also find a thick red line drawn using Kasthuri.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
6. You can also see the Lord adorning golden headgear embedded with precious emerald stones. During the occasions of Brahmothsavam festival, the Lord will be adorned with the thirty crore rupees worth diamond headgear or crown.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
7. You will find two bright golden ear ornaments called Makhara Kundhala. The right hand of the Lord bears golden Chakra (weapon) embedded with gems and left hand holds golden Sankha or Conch.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
9. You can see the rare Salagrahma linked with gold and appearing like a huge garland. This ornament weighs about twelve kilograms and this can be adorned to the Lord with the help of three priests. Another ornament adorned by the Lord is known as Surya Kadari and this one weighs about five hundred kilograms. What you see covering the Lords feet is known as Pada Kavacham which is weighing about three hundred and seventy five kilograms.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
10. The unique blue stone is a very rare piece and you will not get any similar piece in any part of the world. Do you know the value of this piece alone? It is about one hundred crore rupees only. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
11. The prime deity in other Vaishnavite shrines normally poses with His weapons like holy wheel (sudharshana Chakra), Conch (panchajanyam), mace (Gomodhakee gathai), bow (Sarngam), sword (Nandhakam). However at Tirumala the Lord poses with Chakra and Sankha. The Lord is described as the Lord without weapons or Nirayudhapani.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
12. The tamarind tree is considered as the holy tree (Sthala vriksham) of this shrine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
14. On the occasion of Mahashivratri (Great Night devoted to Lord Shiva), a kind of festival called Shetra Palika is celebrated at this temple. On this auspicious day the Urchava Moorthy (idol used to take out in a palanquin for procession) is adorned with a jewel resembling like vibuthi streaks (basmam used to apply on the foreheads of Saivites).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
15. Do you know the age of the beautiful paintings as well as murals? It is about three hundred years old. The paintings/murals at the Tirupathi are over 300 years old.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b>Inscriptions</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
16. The total stone inscriptions found inside the temple complex amounts to 1180 numbers. The inscriptions spans over a period of 1079 years (from 830 AD to 1909 AD). Most of them are in Tamil (1130 numbers) and only 50 of them are in Telugu or Kannada. They are categorized according to their periods. Some 236 numbers are related to the rulers of Pallavas, Cholas and Pandyas. Another 169 numbers are related with the Chalukya rulers.

The precious jewels offered as endowments by these ancient rulers are still preserved in this shrine.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
18. It is estimated that the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) is in possession of about 20 tones of gold and rarest diamond jewelry. Most of these precious jewelry items can be conveniently categorized as ancient and belonged to 12th century or before. Another interesting estimation is that the value of jewelry properties may be around rupees one lakh crore and the figure is almost equal to half of the budget of the Government of Andhra Pradesh.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
19. A replica of the prime deity Lord Venketeshwara in a miniature size was installed in the year 966 AD. All ablutions are performed for this icon and decorated with the jewelry. The inscriptions inform us about the offer made by the Pallava Queen Kadavan Perum Devi, the wife of the Pallava ruler Sakthi Vidangan. The offerings include jewelery and other items. Also there are inscriptions and other evidences to inform about the endowments created by the Chola emperor First Kulothungan.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
25. The Lords inner robes are prepared by the tribal community known as Chenchu. They also prepare the inner garments for the Goddess Alamelu Manga. They observe extreme devotion and keep themselves away from liquor and meat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
26. Do you know that the outer robe (Mel Saththu Vasthiram) offered to adorn the Lord is costing Rupees Twenty Thousand only. The devotees are offering this robe to the Lord. TTD accepts only fifteen pieces every day. If you want to offer one such piece to the Lord, you have to wait for TEN years for your turn from the date of remittance of your money. The State Government of Andhra Pradesh offers two such pieces every year.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
27. The silk costume (saree like robe) has definite length and breadth and the length is about 21 arm lengths (one arm length is equal to one and half feet) or 31 ½ feet and this costume weighs about six kg. The robe will be adorned to the Lord only Fridays. Such a kind of robe cannot be manufactured or purchased in the market. If you are desirous of offering one such robe to the Lord, you have to pay rupees twelve thousand five hundred only at the TTD office and you have to keep waiting for about THREE years for you to get your turn.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
28. The Temple Priests will do ablution or abhishekam to the Lord everyday during early morning between 04.30 and 05.30 a.m. It is strongly believed that the Lord opens His THIRD eye during ablution or abhishekam. The ablution or abhishekam water is passed to the Pushkarani (Temple Tank). Hence a dip in the Pushkarani is also considered as holy.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
29. The cost of the ablution or abhishekam costs Rupees ONE LAKH only. If you want to perform ablution or abhishekam to the Lord you have wait for THREE years for your turn. TTD gets the most important items required for ablution from different countries:<br />
<br />
a. Saffron Received from Spain<br />
b. Kasthuri (An important perfume substance with fragrance is obtained from the Musk Deer) Received from Nepal<br />
c. Punugu (Another perfume substance obtained from a kind of specific cats) Received from China.<br />
d. Some Other Perfumes Received from Paris (France)<br />
<br />
30. The temple staff keep themselves engaged in the preparation of perfume paste for Friday Abhishekam on Thursday night. The specific place meant for this preparation is named as Parimala room.<br />
<br />
31. Many more perfumeries are also obtained from China and to mention a few akil wood, Camphor (Chinese variety), clove (lavangam), niryasam, saffron, thamalam, sandal wood, thakkolam.<br />
32. Do you know where from the roses are imported for the Lord? Yes. The fresh and rare rose flowers are packed and airlifted from Amsterdam, the capital of The Netherlands. Do you know the cost of each rose flower? It is rupees eighty only.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
33. Legend says that Lord Kuberan (Lord of Wealth and North Direction) has remitted huge wealth to Lord Venketeshwara to celebrate His marriage with His consort Goddess Padmavathi (Alarmelmangai). Due to this reason devotee comes to Tirupati and donate money, jewels and other offerings. The Lord can settle Lord Kuberans debts using the donations offered by devotees.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
34. Sri Andal is one of the twelve Vaishanavite Saints (Alwars) and she is the only Saintess. She is also known as Kothai Nachiyar. Sri Andal belonged to the period of 8th century. She lived at Srivilliputhur, another important Diva Desam located at the South of Tamil Nadu. Andal means (Girl who ruled the Lord Vishnu). She used to offer flower garland to the Lord after wearing herself (Choodi kodutha Chudarkkodi). Even today the flower garland adorned by Sri Andal is being brought to Tirumala and adorned once again to the Lord.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
35. The madapalli (kitchen attached to the temple) is huge and equipped with gadgets to produce Neivedyam (offerings to God) like appam, athirasam, badam kesari, cashew nut kesari, curd rice, dosa, jilebi, laddu, milagu vadai, murukku, payasam, poli, rava kesari, tamarind rice, other variety rices, vadai and others in a mass scale. However the temple priests offer curd rice in a fresh mud pot or vessel as neivedyam. All other menu items prepared as offerings to the Lord will not cross the entrance of the sanctum sanctorum. If any devotee obtains either mud pot or the curd rice offered as neivedyam from the priests, he is definitely considered as the one blessed with grace of the Lord.</div>

Who are siddhas ? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Siddhars are saints in India, mostly of the Saivaite denomination in
Tamil Nadu, who professed and practised an unorthodox type of Sadhana,
or spiritual practice, to attain liberation. They are Siddhas because they attained <i>siddhi</i>, i.e. "power, prowess, strength, ability", a special kind of psychic and supernatural, miraculous, occult power.<b> </b>According to Thirumoolar: "Those who live in yoga and see the divine light and power through yoga are the siddhars (Tamil Chittar)".</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Siddha Tombs (Memorials) are known as Jeeva Samadi. Jeeva or Sajeeva / Jiva / Samadhi means "becoming one" with the universal consciousness or merging with the Divine.<b> </b>This is a state where Siddhas enters into the samadhi state at their own
will after completion of their mission on earth and their mind
completely dissolved into the Divine, They stop the functioning of the
body and mind. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Between fourth and twelfth centuries the huge temple complexes were raised by Chola, Pandiya, Pallava and Vijayanagara kings in South India. The remnants of stone architecture could be dotted all over India. Each Hindu temple is normally dedicated to the principal deity and there will be sub-ordinate deities associated with the principal deity. The principal Hindu deities mostly represented Hindu temples include Lord Siva, Lord Vishnu, goddess Parvathi (consort of Lord Siva), Lord Vinayaka or Ganesha and Lord Subramanya. Lord Siva is usually represented as Siva Lingam. Siva Lingam is known as an icon of strength and fertility power. Another well known format of Siva is Lord Nataraja (the Lord of Dance). Lord Vishnu icons pose in three different forms – standing, sitting and lying. Most distinct form is Lord Ranganatha reclining on serpent bed. The icon serves as a tangible link between the worshiper and God. The image is often considered a manifestation of God, since God is immanent.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The Indian granite is regarded as the best variety. In exceptional occasions the South Indian sculptors chose emerald as the sculpting material. Emerald is known as the gemstone from ancient times. The emerald stone traditionally deemed as the antidote of poison, is also associated with Garuda. Emerald is the naturally occurring mineral - silicate of beryllium and aluminum. It is obtained from as the hexagonal and pyramidal crystals. The natural and flawless emerald is regarded as the rare variety. The chromium content of the mineral beryl influences the natural color. The color and brightness determine the quality. Some varieties are in pale green in color or bluish green and some other varieties range from grass green to dark green colors. The toughness of the stone according to Moh’s scale (hardness) is measured between 7.5 and 8.0 and since it brittle easily, extra care is required while sculpting. Of course you will also get synthetic emerald like stones. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The Religious Agamas (Saiva and Vaishnava), Shilpa Shastras and Hindu iconography speak volumes about this subject. The symbols and forms of Hindu icons show large variations from one period to the other; one region to the other and one sect of followers to the other. The Hindu iconography comprises the elements of Hindu temple architecture and ornamentation. It also provides ‘iconometric measurements’ and guidelines for sculpting the icons Hindu gods and goddesses. The well known Shilpa shastra text is called ‘Shipa Ratnakara.’</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Most of the icons are seen mounted on some specific vehicles (vahanam). The hands (four or eight – some times more) bear weapons, flower, book, holy water pot, fire, snake, drum, rosary, conch, wheel etc., The Hindu iconography includes many guidelines and rules for sculpting various forms of Hindu icons.</div>

<br />TEMPLES WITH EMERALD ICONS</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Sapta (Seven) Vitanka Sthalams</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Seven Saiva temples dedicated to Lord Thiyagaraja or Somaskanda (a form of Lord Siva) are located in the vicinity of the temple town Tiruvaroor in Tamil Nadu (Ancient Chola country –Southern banks of the holy river Cauveri). The Chola emperor Musukuntha Chakravarthy said to have obtained seven icons of Lord Thiyagaraja from Lord Indira. The emperor enshrined these seven icons at these seven shrines.All these seven Saiva shrines are referred as ‘Sapta Vitanka Sthalams (Shrines). The tern ‘vitanka’ suggests that the Maragatha (emerald) Siva Lingam icons are self formed (swayambu) and not chiseled or sculpted. The seven Lord Thiyagaraja shrines are located at:</div>

The ‘Gomethaga Lingam’ of Lord Thiyaraja temple, Thiruvaroor and the ‘Maragatha Lingam’ of Lord Kayarohaneswarar temple – Thirunagaikaronam (Nagapattinam) temple were stolen during early 1990s. The police case regarding the theft of these two priceless Siva Lingams remains undetected. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The Tamil Nadu CID police of Economic Offences Wing (EOW) - Idol Wing has recovered the Maragatha Lingam icon - weighing 990 grams - belonging to Lord Maruntheeswarar temple Thiruthuraipoondi, Thiruvaroor district, Tamil Nadu from the two member gang. The idol was stolen by the team of five gang members from the temple on February 22, 2009 during night time. The police acted up on tip-off and hatched plan to catch the criminals. On October 26, 2009, Monday, the police team encircled the gang at Chennai Mofussil Bus Terminus or CMBT, Koyambedu, Chennai. The antique value of the stolen Maragatha Lingam idol is estimated about Rs. 50 crore. Few days later the stolen Maragatha Lingam was handed over to the temple authorities (HR & CE). The CID police have emphasized the need for tight security to protect the priceless maragatha lingam icons in seven Saptha Vitanka sthalams and 27 upa-vitanka sthalams in Tamil Nadu.</div>

The Tamil Panchangam or Tamil Astrological Almanac is a solar and nirayana or sidereal Hindu calendar used in Tamil Nadu and Puducherry, India. It is also used by the Tamil population in Malaysia, Singapore, Mauritius and Sri Lanka. Since the Hindu sidereal or Nirayana Mesha Sankranti (Sun's transition into nirayana Aries) falls on 14 April, the day marks the first day of the traditional Tamil Panchangam or calendar. This day and event also coincide with other traditional calendars followed in rest of the states in India i.e, Assam, Bengal, Kerala, Odisha, Manipur, Punjab etc. The new year day is known as Bihu (Assamese); Pohela Boishakh (Bengali); Vishu (Malayalam); Vishuva Sankranti (Oriya); Vaisakhi (Punjabi); and Puthandu (Tamil).</div>

In olden days sages and rishis followed traditional methods to provide exact positions of stars. The oral documentation included formulas and statements in poetic formats for mnemonic understanding and to retain in memory. The algorithms on rate of movements of planets, including Rahu and Ketu followed by them was known as Surya Siddhantic system or Vakya Siddhanta. This was documented in in our ancient treatises on astronomy / astrology and termed as Vakya Panchangam tradition.</div>

The other method of calculation is based on observation of planets and calculation of their movements. Drik Ganita means according to actual observation (drishti = sight) and estimation (ganita = calculated). The Drik Ganita system use algorithms to obtain precise position of stars and use standard ephemeris for documentation. The government of India has also supported modern ephemeris for National Panchang or Rashtriya Panchang and Positional Astronomy Centre in Calcutta publishes modern Indian Ephemeris since 1957. The Drik Ganita system also use ephemeris to fix the longitude and latitude of a given place and the time units are translated from Nazhikai to minutes. Examples include: Anandabodhini panchangam, L.V.S.Mani Bharat Drik-Ganitha Panchangam, Vasan Panchangam</div>
<br /><b>Five Basic Astronomical Elements</b><br />
<br />The Sanskrit word 'Panchangam' means (Pancha = five and Anga = limbs) five limbs or parts. The five basic astronomical elements of the day are represented in Panchangam:<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Tithi (Lunar Day), 2. Nakshatra (The Constellation The Moon is aligned with), 3. Karana (Half-Day), 4. Yoga (A particular Angle of the Sun and Moon) and 5. Vara or Vasara (Solar Weekday).</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These five basic astronomical elements are enough to accommodate all variations of planetary positions. Planetary positions will influence the physical and mental well being of all people. Panchangam forms the basic astronomical reference document to identify the rising and setting of sun, moon and other planets, the forthcoming (religious) events like lunar and solar eclipses, full moon, new moon and other tithis (lunar days). The astrologers use this document to fix auspicious time and date (Muhurt) as well as to prepare natal (birth) chart. Any venture or decisions made in an auspicious time will bring fortune and prosperity.</div>
<br /><b>1). Tithi</b><br /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Tamil calendar (as well as other Indian Hindu calendars) the lunar day (tithi) is the single lunar day. Lunar day is calculated based on the difference between the positional longitudinal angle of the sun and the moon. There are 30 lunar days or tithis. The counting of the lunar day or tithi commences from the new moon day (Amavasya). At the particular point of time the sun and the moon signs are conjunct together in their zodiac orbits. There from the moon transits across each zodiac sign and the moon's transition time (to cross each zodiac sign) ranges between 20.00 and 26.50 hours.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The lunar days occurring between the new moon and the full moon (Purnima) days are known as waxing period (Sukla Paksha) and the lunar days falling between full moon (Purnima) and the new moon days are known as waning period (Krishna Paksha). The tithi names follow the Sanskrit numeric system.</div>
<br />1. Pratipada (Prathama) or the Principal tithi (One),<br />2. Dvitiya, In Sanskrit 'Dvandham' means two<br />3. Tritiya, In Sanskrit 'Triyam' means three<br />4. Chaturthi, In Sanskrit 'Chatur' means four<br />5. Panchami, In Sanskrit 'Panchama' means five<br />6. Shasthi, In Sanskrit 'Shat' means six<br />7. Saptami, In Sanskrit 'Saptha' means seven<br />8. Ashtami, In Sanskrit 'Ashta' means eight<br />9. Navami, In Sanskrit 'Nava' means nine<br />10. Dasami, In Sanskrit 'Dasam' means ten<br />11. Ekadasi, In Sanskrit 'eka' means one and 'Dasam' means ten ekadasi = eleven<br />12. Dvadasi, In Sanskrit 'Dvandham' means one and 'Dasam' means ten Dvadasi = twelve<br />13. Trayodasi, In Sanskrit 'Triyam' means one and 'Dasam' means ten Trayodasi = thirteen<br />14. Chaturdasi, In Sanskrit 'Chatur' means one and 'Dasam' means ten Chaturdasi = fourteen<br /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You need to count from Amavasya (new moon day) to purnima (full moon day) and include the 14 tithis for sukla paksha. Purnima to Amavasya include 14 tithis and count for Krishna Paksha. Thus there are 30 tithis i.e., new moon to purnima 15 tithis plus Pratipada to Amavasya 15 tithis.</div>
<br /><b>2). Nakshatra</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The second element star clusters or constellation (nakshatra) is already dealt in the previous post (Tamil Astrology).</div>
<br />
<b>3). Karana</b><br /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The third element of the panchanga is Karana. What is Karana? A karana is simply half of your lunar day or the tithi. According to Vedic Astrology there are only eleven karanas and there are sixty Karanas occurring in a single lunar month. The eleven unique Karana names are:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />1. Bava, 2. Balava, 3. Kaulava, 4. Taitila, 5. Gara, 6. Vanija, 7. Visti, 8. Sakuni, 9. Catuspada, 10. Naga and 11. Kintughna.</div>
<br />
<b>4). Yoga</b><br /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Vedic Astrology the occurrence of a particular star cluster in combination with the specific day is considered either auspicious or inauspicious. There are twenty seven yogas. Certain combinations of day and star are inauspicious. Sidha yogas' and 'Amirtha yogas' are considered as auspicious.</div>
<br />5). <b>Vara (vasara)</b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Varam is the fifth element of the panchanga. Varam is simply a solar day. It just includes your seven week days commencing from Sunday to Saturday. A solar day, measured from sunrise to sunrise. There are seven days in each phase, or week, in the Hindu system. Each solar day is said to be ruled by a planet as shown below:</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Bhanu (or Ravi) vasara: Sunday Sun; 2. Soma vasara: Monday. "Day of the moon," also known as Indu vasara; 3. Mangala vasara: Tuesday. "Day of brightness, auspiciousness, fortune" or "day of Mars."; 4. Budha vasara: Wednesday. "Day of wisdom" or "Day of Mercury."; 5. Guru vasara: Thursday. "Day of the preceptor" or "day of Jupiter," known in Sanskrit as Brihaspati, by which this day is also known; 6. Sukra vasara: Friday. "Resplendent, clear day" or "day of Venus."; 7. Sani vasara or (Manta vasara): Saturday. "Day of Saturn." Or "Churning day"</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The days - Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays are always auspicious for commencing your plans and programs. Saturdays and Tuesdays are auspicious for commencing your course of medicines or surgical treatments, etc.. Sunday is neither auspicious nor inauspicious.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<br /><u><i>Time Divisions in a Solar Day</i></u><br /><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A solar day is divided into 60 'Naligais' (24 hours or 1440 minutes). A naligai is the basic unit of time in Tamil (Vedic) Aastrology. One naligai is equal to 24 minutes. Six naligais make one 'Jamam'. A jamam is an unit of time comprising 2 hours and 24 minutes (84 minutes). Five jamams make a day and another five jamams make the night. A solar day in total comprises 10 jamams.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<u><i>Month:</i></u> Masam as told earlier there are two uniqe types of months-lunar months and solar months. How a lunar is computed? A lunar month is the time taken by the moon to complete one lunar orbit of the moon around the earth (commencing either from the new moon day or the full moon day). A lunar month has two pakshas: One is Sukla Paksha (Waxing moon cycle) and Krshna Paksha (waning moon cycle). A solar month is the time taken by the sun to complete one solar transition or sun's movement through one rasi (zodiac sign). The solar months are as follows:<br />
<br /><i>Sanskrit month - Tamil month - with equivalent English calendar months:</i><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />1) Mesha - Chitrai - April/May; 2) Vrishabha - Vaikasi - May/June; 3) Mithuna - Ani - June/July; 4) Kataka - Adi - July/August; 5) Simha - Avani - August/September; 6) Kanya - Puratasi - September/October; 7) Thula - Aipasi - October/November; 8) Vrischika - Kartikai - November/December; 9) Dhanus - Markali - December/January; 10) Makara - Thai - January/February; 11) Kumbha - Masi - February/March; 12) Meena - Panguni - March/April.</div>
<br />
<u><i>Year:</i></u> The 60-year cycle of the Tamil calendar is common to North and
South Indian traditional calendars, with the same name and sequence of
years.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Our Sages or Rishis of the Vedic period (Narada, Vasistha, Saunaka, Jaimini and others) were able to perceive the mysterious star and planetary movements along the zodiacal system through their deep meditation (thapas). They conceived the basic rules of the "nirayana" or sidereal zodiacal system (Fixed star astrology) which formed the basis for Indian Vedic Astronomy as well as Vedic Astrology. It is different from Western Tropical astrology or the Moving star system. If a birth chart cast using these tropical and sidereal system, there will be the variation of 23 to 24 degrees. Accordingly (for example) if the Tropical system horoscope shows the sun in Aquaris, then the sidereal system will indicate the Sun in Capricorn.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Many more Indian astrological traditions shared common roots in ancient philosophies that influenced each other and Tamil astrology, a natural cosmic tradition, branched out from the Indian Vedic Astronomy. Tamil astrology, is estimated as one of the most ancient, accurate and consistent form of astrology from India. Its basic principles and unique methodologies are derived from the principles of Sidereal (Eastern) astrology. The sidereal system claims that the position of planets in their orbits observable and the astronomical calculations are scientific and measurable.</div>
<br />
The Tamil astrology study consists of 27 constellations, in 12 lunar mansions. The movements of two luminaries Sun and Moon, five major planets (Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus and Mercury) and the two nodal points of the Moon i.e., Rahu and Ketu are considered and their positions are marked.<br />
<br />
<b>Nine Planets</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Tamil Astrology there are only nine Planets or Grahas which have innumerable influence on human life. Of the nine planets only seven planets are known heavenly bodies: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn. The remaining two, namely Dragon Head or Rahu and Dragon Tail or Ketu, are known as shadowy planets. Why it is called as shadowy planets? The two planetary positions are calculated mathematically.</div>
<br />
<b>Twelve Zodiac Signs</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Tamil Astrology system also conceived the zodiacal system (Circle of animals). It is an elliptical belt along the solar path. This zodiacal belt is extended for about eight degrees on either side of this solar path. Along this zodiacal belt the sun, moon and other planetary motions takes place. Tamil Astrology divides this zodiacal belt comprising 360 degrees into 12 equal parts. Each part of 30 degrees was called as sign or Rasi. This is considered as the fundamental division of Tamil Astrology. The Western terminology of the 12 zodiac signs or rasis and their Sanskrit names are : </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1.Aries: Mesha "Ram, goat." ; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2.Taurus: Vrishabha "Strength," or "a bull." ; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3.Gemini: Mithuna "Twins"; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4.Cancer: Kataka "Crab." ; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5.Leo: Simha "Lion;" ; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6.Virgo: Kanya "Maiden;" ; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
7.Libra: Thula "Balance"; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
8.Scorpio: Vrishchika "Scorpion." ; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
9.Sagittarius: Dhanus "Bow;" ; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
10.Capricorn: Makara "Crocodile"; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
11.Aquarius: Kumbha "Water vessel;" ; </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
12.Pisces: Meena "Fish;"</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b>27 Star-clusters or Constellations</b></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Tamil Astrology also set relation between 12 zodiacal signs or rasis and 27 star-clusters and constellations. These unique 27 star-clusters or constellations spread within the elliptic zodiac orbit (solar orbit). Tamil Astrology divides 27 equal divisions of the zodiac orbit (comprising 360 degrees) and each star-cluster and constellation will occupy 1/27 parts or 13 degree 20' of the zodiac orbit. As a result astrology system brings 27 star-clusters or constellations under 12 zodiac signs and unifies both the divisions together.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The twenty-seven nakshatras are: Asvin, Bharani, Krittika, Rohini, Mrigasira, Ardra, Punarvasu, Pushya, Aslesha, Magha, Purvaphalguni, Uttaraphalguni, Hasta, Chaitra, Svati, Visakha, Anuradha, Jyeshtha, Mula, Purvashadha, Uttarashadha, Sravana, Dhanishtha, Satabhishaj, Purvaprostapada, Uttaraprostapada and Revati.</div>
<br />
<b>Planetray Transitions in Zodiac Signs / Stellar Constellations</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Tamil Astrology the nine planets are related to the 12 zodiac signs or rasis and 27 stellar-clusters or constellations. Planetary transitions and its influence on individuals will be calculated according to the birth star (ruling constellation at the time of his birth). Each individual will be related with the respective stellar cluster and zodiac sign at the time of his / her birth. When there are planetary transitions occurring across each specific stellar constellation / zodiac sign, there will be significant influence planets on all the natives.</div>

<b><i>Sree Seetha Ramachandra swamy vaari hill temple at Bhadrachalam is the
most important Hindu temple devoted to Lord Rama and is located on the
left banks of the holy Godavari river. Read on to learn the mythology,
history, main deity, fairs and festivals and other tourism information.</i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Have you ever heard of Bhadrachalam, the holy Hindu temple built for Lord Rama by Ramadas during 1630 A.D? This vast hill temple located, on the banks of the holy river Godavari, in Khammam district, Andhra Pradesh, South India and you have to climb the 40 foot-steps. This pilgrim centre attracts thousands and thousands of devotees from all corners of the world. The temple complex has exquisitely sculpted vimana (tower right on top of the main deity) and mandapams (huge hall supported by stone pillars). This shrine is well associated with the great epic Ramayana (Glorious life history of Lord Rama – the seventh incarnation of Lord Vishnu) as well as with the lives of devotees such as Guru Adi Sankara, Bhakta Ramadas and Kabirdas ( a Muslim by birth).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Mythology</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />According to the sthala purana (history learned from puranas), the sage Bhadra was the child of sage Meru and Menaka (celestial beauty served at Lord Indra’s court as dancer). Sage Bhadra prayed Lord Vishnu and appealed him to establish dharma (virtue) and destroy the evil demons. Since Lord Vishnu was sympathetic and decided to incarnate for the seventh time to save the world. King Dasaratha of Ayodhya (ancient Indian Kingdom – now a popular city in Uttar Pradesh State, India) and his queen Kausalya gave birth to Lord Rama (approximate year 7323 B.C). </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />It is learned from the mythology that Lord Rama, his wife Sita and his brother Lakshmana spent their vanavasam (observing penance at a forest) at this shrine (name of a place Parnashala). Parnashala (32 K.M away from Bhadrachalam) is believed to be the hut constructed by Lord Rama for spending their time at Vanavasam. The story of golden deer is also associated with this shrine. The king of Sri Lanka abducted Devi Sita and taken her to Sri Lanka (approximate date 7306 B.C). Lord Rama waged a war and destroyed the demon king Ravana (approximate date 7323 B.C) and returned to his kingdom Ayodhya with his wife and brother.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>History of temple</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Another interesting episode related to this shrine is about the tribal woman called Pokala Dammakka. She lived in the 17th century at Bhadrireddypalayam near Bhadrachalam. Lord Rama seems to have appeared in her dream and informed about the existence of the icons of the Lord around Bhadragiri. The woman, being an ardent devotee of Lord Rama was shocked and went in search and idols and found them buried in side of an ant-hill. She cleaned the idols by pouring holy water from river Godavari. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The local Tahsildar (of Burgampahad) Kancharla Gopanna, (later attained popularity as Bhakta Ramadas) a staunch devotee of Lord Rama vowed to construct the temple for his Lord (temple and the prakaram) in 1674 A.D. The jewelry made by him for his Lord Rama includes headgear and necklaces studded with gems like emerald, ruby etc. Ramadas and has lavishly spent the government money of the Tanisha Nawab. The Navab even jailed Ramadas as a punishment for the act of spending huge wealth. Saint Thyagaraja (one of three exponents of Carnatic music) adopted Bhakta Ramadas as his role model and even included his name in one or two keerthanas.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Lord Rama is the prime deity of this temple. The idol of Lord Rama has four arms and found sitting in Padmasana posture. The other two hands are holding the conch (Sankha) at right and the wheel (Chakra) at left. The main deity is known as Chaturbhuj Rama (Rama with four hands). His consort Sita is found at his left and brother Lakshmana also found to the left of Sita. You will find at the idols taken for procession (Utsav deities) that Lord Rama at centre and his consort Sita and brother Lakshmana on either side. Adi Sankarar used to invoke and praise Lord Rama as Bhadrachala Rama and Vaikuntha Rama.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Main Festival : Ramanavami</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The temple at Bhadrachalam is celebrating the nine day Ramanavami festival at a grand scale. Bhakta Ramadas was responsible in organizing this festival at a huge scale. Even today this festival is celebrated in the same style. The main attraction of this festival is ‘Sita Rama Kalyana utsavam’ (the celestial wedding anniversary festival).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Other Places of Interest</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The temples in and around Bhadrachalam include Narasimhaswami Temple, Govindarajulu Swamy Temple and Kalyana Mandapam. As told earlier Parnashala is just located 32 km away from here. A hot water spring named as Ushnagundam is another place located 6 km from here.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<i>Do you believe that Nadi Astrologers are able to predict your past,
present and future by using your thumb impression? Yes! It is very hard
to believe. There are people to believe that Nadi astrology is able to
predict their past and there are few to disagree with this form of
astrology.</i></div>

Nadi Astrology, being claimed as an ancient form of Tamil Hindu
Astrology, is able to detail the predictions foreseen by the great
saints and sages of Tamil Nadu to all people. It is said that the sages
were able to use their yogic spiritual power and foreseen the past,
present and future of all individuals who already lived in this world or
living at present or going to take birth and to live. </div>

<b>History</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The origin of Nadi Astrology manuscripts are claimed to be over 2000
years. It is believed that the manuscripts use Tamil Grantham letters
(Vattezhuttu) to record the texts in age old poetic format. The Nadi
Astrologers claim that there are about eighteen types of ancient palm
leaf manuscripts written in ancient Sanskrit language and they are
normally identified with the seven Sages and Saints (Siddhars) i e,
Agasthya, Bohar, Brigu, Kausika, Valmiki, Vasistha, and Vyasa.<br />

The Nadi
systems were named after the Sage or Saint i e., Agasthya Nadi,
Angirasa Nadi, Atrish Nadi, Baradwaj Nadi, Bohar Nadi, Brahma Nadi,
Brigu Nadi, Gautama Nadi, Jamadagni Nadi, Kagapujandar Nadi, Kausika
Nadi (also known as Vishwamitra Nadi), Krauta Nadi, Pulahtiya Nadi,
Shiva Nadi, Suka Nadi, Valmiki Nadi, Vashist Nadi, Vyasa Nadi etc. Most
of these Nadis are not available in full form and some part might have
got destroyed or taken away by British Rulers or researchers.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">
<br />
<b>Collection and Organisation</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Nadi Astrology manuscripts lie scattered across the country and a
portion of the leaves are believed to have been smuggled out of India.
Experts say that the manuscripts using the bold face are believed to be
the older records. The results of the radio carbon dating tests carried
on these manuscripts prove that they are just three hundred years old.
Researchers also found some of these Nadi manuscripts are also available
in few other Indian languages i e, Kannada and Telugu. The Tamil
version of Nadi Astrology manuscripts might be the translated versions
from the original Sanskrit scripts. The Rulers of Thanjavoor were
responsible for the translated version. The Maratha ruler Serfoji (or
Sarabhoji) [1777-1832] of Thanjavoor preserved the translations in his
Saraswati Mahal Library.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b>Hereditary Occupation of Valluvar Community</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The European researchers in general and the British Rulers in
specific accessed the entire manuscript collections of the library and
found that the literature on indigenous medicine were only useful to
them. The Colonial Rulers decided to sell the manuscripts through
auction and the traditional Valluvar Community astrologers of
Vaitheeswaran Temple were successful in purchasing them. From then
onwards Nadi Astrology was being practiced by these people and now their
descendants are holding these manuscripts. Thus Nadi Astrology has
become the hereditary occupation of a particular community.</div>
<br />
<b>How Nadi astrology is practiced?</b><br />
<br />
<i>Thumb Impression</i><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Nadi Astrologers will neither demand your birth details nor your
horoscope. They only take your thumb impression. Why your thumb
impression is required? Their claim is that the loops and whirls of your
thumb impressions are unique. They could identify and fix your thumb
impression as one amongst the 1008 unique thumb impression classes or
categories. They also claim that the classification and indexing system
followed to store the bundles of palm leaf manuscripts will help them to
identify few relevant bundles. Each bundle will hold at least fifty to
one hundred palm leaves.</div>
<br />
<i>Nadi Astrology Reader</i><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The process of identifying and pin pointing the specific palm leaf
pertaining to the individual is the most pain taking process and this
may test your patience. The Nadi Astrologer will not put direct question
about your birth details or your name or the names of your parents or
relatives or children, your profession or income and other information.
Instead he will read certain leaves and keep on putting indirect
questions. Some times he may direct you to pay few more visits to verify
your identity from the missing bundles. </div>
<br />
<i>Nadi Astrology and its Parts / Chapters (Kandams)</i><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If they claim that the relevant index leaf bearing your data found he
will read poems comprising ancient Tamil words and phrases. The
astrologer will also interpret your birth details, names of parents,
wife and children. He will also cast your birth chart (horoscope).
According to Nadi Astrology the index leaf is called ‘General Kandam
(Part or Chapter). There are twelve parts or chapters (Kandams) and if
you want specific information about your family, brothers, sisters,
mother, children, education, properties, diseases, debts, litigation,
opponents, marriage, spouse, lifespan, longevity, wealth and comforts,
career or profession, profit and loss, they will advice to refer
specific part or chapter.’ You may have to make number of visits to find
out the relevant leaf and get informed about the answers to your
questions. Also there are parts or chapters (Kandams) for remedies
(Shanti Kandam), performance jebam (Deeksha Kandam), medicine (Oushadha
Kandam) and prosperity (Dasa Bhukthi Kandam). More you visit more money
you have to pay.</div>
<br />
<i>Sins (Doshams) and Remedies (Pariharams) in Nadi Astrology</i><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to the Saints the individuals are suffering due to the sins
they have committed during their previous births. The individual will
have realization about his or her sufferings and will approach this
specific Nadi system / Nadi Astrologer for remedies. If you also want to
know the reason for your sufferings (‘Doshams’) i e, disease, poverty,
indebtedness, lack of children, late marriage etc, they will recommend
remedies (‘Shanti Pariharams’) as told in 13th or 14th part or chapter
(Shanti Kandam / Deeksha Kandam). Usually the remedies will include
donations to Nadi Astrologer, visiting specific temples several times
and feeding the poor or disabled people or donating money or clothes.
Once you complete the remedial measures, all your sins will be erased
and you will enjoy the comforts of life and as a result there will be
peace and prosperity will flourish in your family. </div>
<br />
<b>Conclusion</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Those
who are satisfied with the predictions in relation to their past life
could not find remedy for the sufferings in spite of their remedial
measures performed with full devotion. Therefore the future predictions
are not true and may be the guess work of the Nadi Astrologer. While few
of the customers are able to appreciate the skill of the Nadi
Astrologer in grasping the relevant information relating to your past
life through indirect questions, they are not prepared to trust the
astrologer. No one can say that the astrologer to whom you are
consulting is holding the genuine manuscript or his predictions are
accurate. However the people are being ill advised to perform remedies
with extensive homams, poojas, feeding the poor and donations to
astrologers.</div>

The New Year festival Ugadi (Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka) or Gudi Padava (Maharashtra) or Cheti Chand (Sindh) is being celebrated on the first day of the every Hindu calendar year by the people of Deccan region in India.<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Chandramana: the Hindu Calendar System</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />According to the Hindu Panchang or ephemeris the first day of the Hindu lunar (Chandramana) calendar falls on the Chaitra sukla Padyami i.e., Pradhama thithi during Shukla Paksha or waxing cycle of the moon (bright moon fortnight) of Chaitra month (Corresponding month March). Sali vahana Saka (Era) is the Hindu lunar (Chandramana) calendar followed in Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra states and hence it is rightly termed as 'Lunar Almanac of Deccan' (Wikipedia). It also marks the beginning of spring season.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Salivahana Era</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Traditionally King Salivahana is being credited for initiating the calendar and hence the name Salvahana Saka. Historians corresponds the beginning if Salivahana to 78 AD of your Gregorian Calendar. Thus the current Salivahana year 1936 corresponds with the year 2014 AD.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Sowramana: the Hindu Calendar System</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Please understand that only people from the three states celebrate new year on this day. People of Assam, Bengal, Kerala, Manipur, Orissa, Punjab and Tamil Nadu follow Hindu Solar (Sowramana) calendar.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Tamil New Year</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The new year is celebrated in Tamil Nadu as Nirayana Mesha Sankranti (Sun's transition into Nirayana Aries). The day marks the enry of sun into Aries or Mesha sign / Rasi of the zodiac (Corresponding Gregorian calendar date April 13 or14).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Vishu</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The new year (Vishu) day in Kerala is celebrated in Kerala as Thiruvonam (Sun's transition into Nirayana Margasira). The day marks the entry of sun into Leo or Simha sign / Rasi of the zodiac. This day coincides with Shravana or Thiruvonam star.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Sixty year Cycle</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Another interesting information about the Tamil and Telugu calendar is the revolving cycle of years. Unlike other calendar system there is a name for every year. Thus there is a list of sixty calendar names. After the end of every sixty cycle the new cycle begins. Accordingly the name of the current new year is 'Virodhi' and it is the 23rd year in the list. It falls on Friday the 27th day of March 2009.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Holy Bath in Rivers</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />Fervor and gaiety mark Ugadi. The new year dawns with fanfare among the People of Deccan region. The households will clean their homes and decorate the entrance with mango leaf festoons. People go to holy rivers and take head bath. Worship sun god. Traditionally the bath is associated 'Surya Arkya' with sesame thil and hence the ritual is named as 'Thailabhyanganam.' People enjoy with this festival by dressing in colorful attire.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Rejoice with Neem recipes</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another interesting ritual of Ugadi is 'Nimba Kusuma Bhakshana.' The term 'Nimba' means neem and the term 'Kusuma' means flower. There is much importance to neem flower in Ugadi celebrations. </div>

Neem is bitter in taste. People will rejoice in tasting the ingredients representing three
tastes. The households will prepare Neem Sauce (Pachadi) and Neem Soup
(Rasam). The ingredients of the recipes will represent six tastes i.e.,
jaggey (sweet), raw mango (sour), salt (salty), neem flower (bitter),
chili (pungent) and tamarind (astingent). In Kannada the recipe is named
as 'Bevu-Bella.'<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /><b>Panchanga Sravanam</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />The traditional Panchanga Sravanam is an important event. People will assemble at temples in the morning and listen the new year prospects as described in the Panchangam i.e., regional ephemeris / almanac / calendar.</div>

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on">
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Vedic astrology or Hindu astrology is based on the sidereal or visible zodiac system. Initially the zodiac was divided into 12 main zodiac signs or rasis. Later Hindu sages added another sub-division after breaking the zodiac into 27 star constellations or nakshatras. Thus a nakshatra is one of 27 sectors along the zodiac. Each nakshatra has a span of 13 degrees and 20 minutes. After that each nakshatra was further subdivided into 4 Padas, or quarters, of 3 degrees and 20 minutes. Each zodiac sign comprise total 9 padas. The constellations are categorized into three main classes: 1. Deva (divine); 2. Manusha (human); and 3. Rakshas (demonic) and each constellation has its own ruling deities. <br />
<br />
In Vedic astrology Birthstar is known as Janma Nakshatra or only Nakshatra. Birthstar is the name of the constellation in which the Moon was located at the time of the birth. People strongly believe that those born on the 27 represented stars belonging to the 12 Zodiac signs have their own specific temples (ruling deity), animals, trees and birds for worship. <br />
<br />
The concept of Nakshatra temples is based on the belief that there is a correlation between the birth star or constellation of the person and the relationship with the deity in Hindu temples. Worshiping the deity throughout his or her life will bring peace and prosperity. <br />
<br />
Tree worship (dendrolatry) and sacred trees play pivotal roles in Hindu religion and astrology. The concept of Nakshatra trees is based on the belief that there is a correlation between each birth star as well as constellation of Hindu astrology and the relationship with a symbolic tree or plant. This correlation between the birth star and the tree defines the relationship between the human and the green trees in the environment. Eco Worship is the Worship of Environment through plants or offering prayers to various trees.</div>

Cauvery river flows through Mayanur. There is a Thirumukkudal i.e, confluence of two rivers Cauvery and Amaravati near Mayanur. Here the river Cauvery is known as Aganda Cauvery (broad Cauvery) since the width of the river is around 1.5 km. Chellandiamman temple is located on the southern bank of the confluencing point. The temple is sorrounded by coconut groves and paddy fields and the Cauvery river flows on the northern side. The goddess ensures that at this point in Cauvery the water flowing throughout the year. The temple draws water from Cauvery for ablution. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b>Prime Deity</b>: The temple is dedicated to Goddess Parvati (Chellandiamman) and in the sanctum sanctorum the prime deity is appear mounted on her lion. The goddess keep facing the holy river Cauvery as well as the Chola Nadu.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b>Guardian Deities</b>: Separate shrines are allocated for the guarding deities (parivara devatas) like Lord Madurai Veeran Lord Kathavarayan and goddess Pechiyamman. Out side the temple (east side) Chandana Karuppar riding a horse is protecting this temple. Lord Chandana Karuppar (Karuppannaswamy) found seated on the horse back and guards the temple from outside the temple premises . Lord Valampuri Vinayakar graces in the prakaram under a peepal tree (Arasa maram). From Karuppar shrine there are eighteen steps leading to the holy river. On the banks (near steps) Lord Shiva found seated under the banyan tree. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
The Arya Rajan, ruler of the kingdom of Madurai king was the staunch devotee of the goddess Madurai Meenakshi. He wanted to bring the holy water from river Cauvery for ablution of goddess Meenakshi. There is a legend about the construction of the road from Madurai to Madukkarai. The idols of Arya Rajan and his consort queen Chandanathammal are found at the left side of the sanctum of the prime deity. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b>Legend</b>: The three rulers of Tamil Nadu - Cheras, Cholas and Pandyas - often waging war against each other to establish their rights over territorial boundaries. Since there were frequent wars their strength was getting weakened day by day, they wanted to come to an amicable agreement. They wanted to settle their disputes in the presence of a neutral personality. They even met a sage for arriving a solution. The sage was knowing that goddess Parvati was observing penance in a hill located north of Karur and directed them to approach the goddess. The kings with great effort met the goddess Parvati and sought her grace in solving the dispute. Goddess wanted to test their loyalty and directed them to go to Mayanur. The goddess also appeared before them at Mayanur in guise of a tribal girl. She listened to their territorial disputes and finally gave them a solution. Accordingly the land falling east to Mayanur went to Cholas (Chola Nadu); the land falling west to Mayanur was handed over to Cheras (Chera Nadu); and the land falling south went to Pandyas (Pandya Nadu). The boundaries were indicated clearly. The three kings accepted the justice rendered by the tribal girl. Soon they realized that the tribal girl rendering justice was only goddess Parvati. They prostrated before the goddess Parvati and prayed her to remain there as the guardian deity. The goddess also agreed to remain at Mayanur in the name of Chellandi Amman and was facing towards east (Chola Nadu). She also instructed Mother Cauvery would take care of their fortune.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
It is also learned from the local people that after a long time after establishment of the above temple, The Chera, Chola and Pandya kings again prayed that they wanted the presence of goddess in their kingdom and wanted to construct Chellandiamman temple for her. The Goddess divided herself in to three pieces and the three kings obtained one piece each for the construction of temple. In Chellandiamman temple at Trichy, Urayur (Chola Nadu), only the leg (without body) was consecrated. In Chellathamman temple at Madurai, Simmakkal (Pandya Nadu) her head was consecrated and in Chellanamman temple at Noyyal (place of Noyyal confluence to Cauvery) near Karur (Chera Nadu) her torso is consecrated. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b>Evidence for Presence of Border Wall</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
The place was named as Madukkarai (Madhil = Wall + Karai = Border / Territories) since the territories of the kingdoms were earmarked with the construction of the walls. Wikipedia reports about Madukkarai wall as the historic border fortification as 'the stone and earthen fortification with a parallel parallel embankment in central Tamil Nadu. The wall was built during the Pre-Sangam period to demarcate the tri-junction of the Chera, Chola and Pandya.' According to local people the goddess Chellandiamman presided over the territorial dispute between the kings and rendered justice with construction of wall overnight by her supernatural act. It is also noted that the Karaipottanar river (tributary of the Cauveri river to the north) provides the border between Chera (Kongu) Nadu and Chola Nadu. An embankment running southwards across the Kulitalai taluk can be considered as the continuation of the boundary. The Chellandiamman temple at Mayanur is the culminating point of the wall. The wall is believed to be extending up to Madurai.<br />

<b>History</b><br />
<br />
Once, a King by name Sivaperuman ruled over a small and happy kingdom called Perumizhalai region. Saivite Saint Kurumba Nayanar (one of the 63 Nayanars) was serving the King. Kurumba Nayanar has adopted Saivite Saint Sundaramurthy Nayanar as his Guru and was commanding respect from the public for his devotion to Lord Shiva. The name Kurumba Nayanar has strong association to his shepherd community and was born on Chithirai star day in the Tamil month of Aadi (July August). He used to take sufficient food and other essentials packed in a woolen cloth and dispatch it from the border of the place.<br />
<br />
The Kurumbas or shepherds were grazing sheep. The woolen fabric was made from the hairs of the sheep. Nayanar was simple in nature and was noted for austerity by all. He held Lord Shiva in his heart and led a life dedicated to the Lord. As he was ever chanting the hymns of Sundarar, the Tiruthonda Pathikam in particular the 10 verses in praise of all the Nayanmars at the Tiruvarur Temple, Kurumbanayanar attained the great powers mentioned in our scriptures as Ashtamasiddhis. He was also ever chanting the Five Lettered Mantra called Panchakshara Na Ma Si Va Ya.<br />
<br />
When Kurumba Nayanar came to know that Lord Shiva decided to recall Sundaramurthy Nayanar, his Guru to Kailash, Kurumba Nayanar decided to reach Kailash before his Guru with the help of Yogas as he could not live on earth in the absence of the Guru. This episode is described in the great Tamil Epic Periapuranam.<br />
<br />
Sri Aadi Mahalakshmi was the family deity of Kurumba Nayanar. Sri Mahalashmi came into being when the milk ocean was churned by the Devas and the Demons. Lord Vishnu was distributing the Nectar to the Devas and the poison (both came from the milk ocean) to the demons. As demon Andhakasura was slipping away from the place to avoid the poison, he saw Mahalakshmi and was tempted to get Her. When Mahalakshmi ran away from him, he chased her up to Mettur Mahadanapuram where the Kurumbas were grazing their cattle. Mother Mahalakshmi hid Herself in a hole. Incidentally, Ravana was performing penance there. On seeing Mahalakshmi, Ravana was afraid that She had come there to kill him and immediately left for Lanka. Andhakasura chose the Ravanas place for hiding. <br />
<br />
Mahalakshmi was consuming the milk of the sheep which the Kurumbas noticed with surprise. They dig a wet place and found Mahalakshmi as a Swayambu (self manifested) . She begged the people to protect Her from the Demon to test their devotion which people also understood. They covered the Goddess in the woolen cloth. But the demon fought with them and also caught Lakshmi. People prayed to Lord Shiva but He did not listen to their prayers and did not turn up. As the three-eyed Shiva did not turn up, the devotees chose the coconut also having three eyes as Shiva and began to break it on their heads. Pleased with their determined devotion, Lord Shiva appeared and protected Mahalakshmi.<br />
<br />
<b>Stone Shaped Coconuts</b><br />
<br />
Sometime back The villagers of the temple wanted to construct the compound wall around the temple. The marked place was cleaned and upon digging they found 187 numbers of coconut shaped stones. This event surprised the devotees and the stone coconuts are preserved and displayed in the glass case for devotees to witness.<br />
<br />
<b>Story of Trichy - Karur Railway Line Laying</b><br />
<br />
When the British were trying to draw a railway line between Trichy and Karur. The railway line was planned across the temple by the Britishers. This was against the wishes of the villagers of Mahadhanapuram. Incidentally the Britishers happened to see the coconut shaped stones obtained beneath the earth. The Britishers wanted to test the devotion of the villagers and they came out with a proposal. The course of the railway will be changed if the villagers agree for one condition. They should demonstrate that if they could break these stones with their heads, they would change the course of the railway line. The villagers broke the stones and the same was broken into two halves. As a result the line was shifted towards northern side and now running 1.5f km away from the temple.<br />
<br />
<b>Prayer and Offerings</b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Devotees pray to Mother Mahalakshmi for removal of obstacles in marriage alliances and for child boon and achievements in education. The annual Aadi festival of Sri Mahalakshmiamman Temple at Mettu mahadanapuram is being celebrated on Aadipperukku Day i.e, 18th day of the Aadi month and on the 19th day of Aadi month the a traditional annual ritual of chief priest breaking coconuts on heads of devotees as part of their fulfillment of vow will takes place. This will be the main part of the second day function of Aadipperukku. Thousands of people from many parts of Tamil nadu, Kerala, Karnataka and Andra Pradesh will participate in this annual ritual. . The devotees will gather in front of the temple and a priest will smash a coconut each on every registered devotees head. As the coconuts broke into pieces, some devotees may rub their heads and some others may collect the broken pieces of coconuts as a holy offering. Occasionally bleeding was noticed over the heads of few devotees and they just apply the holy ash as remedy.</div>

<br />
<b>Legend</b>: The legend is associated with the legend of the Mahabharata. Hadimba devi was born in the demon (Rakshas) family and not much known about their parents. Very brave and fearless Hadimba devi vowed to marry one who would defeat her brother Hadimb. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
During Pandav's exile when they visited Manali, Bhima (one of the five Pandava brothers in the Mahabharata) killed Hadimb, thus Hadimba devi married Bhima and they gave birth to a son Ghatotkacha. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
When Bhima and his brothers returned from exile, Hadimba devi left Bhima. She stayed back and performed penance. It is believed that in this cave Hadimba devi did penance and attained the status of a goddess.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<b>History</b>: The temple was later built around this cave by Maharaja Bahadur Singh in her honour. Maharaja Bahadur Singh built over a huge rock jutting out of the ground in the year 1533. Do you know what is being worshiped inside this temple? It is a surprise - the imprint of the feet of the Goddess carved on a block of stone.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Architecture</b>: The architecture of Hadimba devi temple is worth appreciating. The 24 m high four tiered pagoda type temple tower consists of three square roofs covered with timber tiles and a fourth brass cone-shaped roof at the top. The temple does not contain any idol. But there is an imprint of the feet of the goddess carved on a block of stone and the goddess is worshpped in this form. The temple also has intricately carved wooden doors. The temple base is made out of whitewashed, mud-covered stonework. It is elaborately decorated with miniature depictions of Goddess, attendants, animals and stylized foliation. On the beams above the doorway appear the Navagrahas, female dancers an isolated scene from the Krishna story. An enormous rock occupies the inside of the temple, only a 7.5 cm (3 inch) tall brass image representing goddess Hidimba devi. A rope hangs down in front of the rock,and according to a legend, in bygone days religious zealots would tie the hands of "sinners" by the rope and then swing them against the rock. About 70 metres away from the temple,there is a shrine dedicated to Goddess Hidimba devi's son, Ghatotkacha who was born after she married Bhima. </div>

</div><div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Pradosham worship aims in getting relieved from leading doshas (malefic aspects) found in your horoscope. No one is free from doshas. You will have at least few doshas like marriage obstacles, lack of child,</span></div><div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"> indebtedness and so on. What ever may be the kind or numbers, your Pradosham worship will give the most wanted relief from doshas. Lord Shiva will have grace on His subjects and rectify all faults or sins.</span><br />

</div><div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; margin-top: 11.25pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">Pradosham is an important Hindu Saivite pooja ritual (way of worship) observed on 'Thiriyodasi tithi' (thirteenth lunar (moon) day of the waxing as well as waning moon phases) in all Shiva temples about 48 minutes during sun set. We call the specific 48 minutes i.e, 24 minutes before sun set (end of a particular day) and 24 minutes after sun set (the commencement of the particular night) as 'Sandhya kalam' and this period is also referred as 'Asura Velai' (Demons timings). Saints and yogis will not advice us either to drink or eat any food. Lord Narasimha (Incarnation of Lord Vishnu) also killed the King Hiranya during this period. Instead they advice us to us to light a lamp and chant mantras, slokas and offer prayers. It is an auspicious time for performing yoga.</span></div><div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Legend</b></span></div><div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">The famous Hindu Puranic story about Devas and Asuras united and teamed together to churn the milky ocean using the celestial serpent Vasugi as rope and mount Mantara as the churn stick. As the churning process</span></div><div style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;"> progressed the serpent got ferocious and spit deadly poison called 'Alakala visham.' The Devas became spell bound and appealed Lord Shiva to save them from dangers of the snake poison. Lord Shiva came to their defence and decided to consume the snake poison by Himself. As the poison was dreadful it affected even Lord Shiva. This event happened on an Ekadasi (eleventh lunar) day. Lord Shiva even fainted for a day and that was 'Dwadasi'.(twelveth lunar) day. As Lord Shiva lives in every living being, the entire universe came to a standstill. There could be no birth. Goddess Parvathi felt the dangers of snake poison and checked the poison by holding Lord Shiva's neck. The poison stayed at the neck of Lord Shiva and the neck color turned blue.</span><br />

Thai is an auspicious month for Tamils. This festival is celebrated on the full moon day when the moon passes through the star ‘Poosam’ or ‘Pushya.’ The Tamils (Hindus) all over the world are celebrating this festival in Murugan temples including the six bastions of Lord Murugan (Arupadaiveedu) in Tamil Nadu, Malaysia, Singapore, London, Sydney, Paris, and USA. The Lord Murugan is native Lord of Tamils. He is the younger son of Lord Shiva. In Tamil Murugu means handsome. The handsome god is represented as ‘Lord of War’ and he is also known as the Chief of Deva Army (Deva Senathipathy). He has also destroyed the demon Surapadman on a Shashti (sixth lunar day). Lord also destroyed another demon Tharakasuran on the Poosam star day and for this reason Thai Poosam is celebrated.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Palani</span><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br />Palani is one of the six bastions of Lord Murugan. The Sri Dhandayudhapani (Murugan) temple is located on Palani hillock (Malai Kovil or hill temple). Thai Poosam is one of the main festivals of Dhandayudhapani temple in Palani. It is a ten days festival. The celestial marriage of Lord Murugan with his two consorts ‘Sri Valli’ and ‘SriDeivanai’ will takes place. On the seventh day the Lord and his consorts will be taken in a car and the procession will be along the four Ratha streets. On the tenth day there will be float festival. The festival attracts lot of devotees. People from all over the state proceed to Palani by walk. Some people vows to offer a kavadi to the Lord. They will observe fast and break their fast once their vow is fulfilled. About ten thousand kavadis are offered during Thai Poosam festival. People believe that all their miseries will be mitigated by the Lord. Kavadi is a “flattened pole with loads at the ends.” The pole would be made up of wood or metal. Some people would like to carry simple pole while others prefer to carry decorated poles. The pots attached on either side may be filled with milk or water from holy river Cauvery. Some may prefer to bring flowers. Some other may prefer to carry kavadi decorated with peacock feathers. The kavadi bearers duly garlanded and dressed in yellow costume, commence their pilgrimage from far off places and proceed by walk. On the way there will be ‘Kavadi Attam’ or dance by the devotees. The supporters will recite the Tamil song ‘Kavadi-Chindhu.’ People also vow to feed these Kavadi bearers.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Batu Caves (Malaysia)</span><br /><br />Batu caves, Malaysia is the extremely popular shrine dedicated to Lord Murugan.

At the sanctum sanctorum the priests will help the devotees to remove their hooks from the body. They will apply the holy ash on the wound. By god’s grace there is no blood coming from the hook pierced flesh. Another cave temple or the Sri Subramanian Temple at Gunong Cheroh, Ipoh, Malaysia also celebrates Thai Poosam. Yet another place is at the Nattukottai Chettiar Temple along Jalan Waterfall in Penang.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Singapore</span><br /><br />Thaipusam is celebrated with grandeur in Singapore. The devotees commence the celebrations on the preceding day of Thai Poosam. Lord Murugan is placed in the Silver Chariot and taken out in a procession to Layan Sithi Vinayagar temple and in the evening the chariot returns back. The Chettiar Kavadies and other devotees follow the chariot. People call this event as Chetty Pusam in Singapore. On Thaipusam day, you will find larger number of devotees. In Singapore also certain devotees vow to offer prayers by piercing their bodies with spikes and spears. They also pull toy chariots by hooks (hooks are pierced and attached on their back) from Srinivasa Perumal Temple. All kinds of Kavadis are also carried by them.

By Maha Shivaratri it is meant "The Night of Shiva".<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Four Kinds of Shivratris</span><br /><br />According Skandha Purana, there are four different Shivratris:<br /><br />Every Hindu feels that every night is the Shivratri for him. It is known as 'Nithya Shivratri'.<br /><br />According to Hindu calendar the thirteenth lunar night / fourteenth; lunar day (Thithi or lunar day = Thriyodasi night / Chaturdasi Day) the waning phase of the moon (Krishna Paksha) is marked as 'Masa Shivratri' (monthly Shivratri).<br /><br />Prathamadhi Shivratri is the third kind of Shivratri celebrated for thirteen days commencing the day after new moon or first lunar day to the thirteenth lunar day in the waning phase of the moon in the Tamil month Masi (Hindu calendar month Falguna) month.<br /><br />Maha Shivratri or annual Shivratri falls on the thirteenth lunar night / fourteenth lunar day Krishna Paksha Triyodasi / Chaturdasi in the Tamil month Masi (Hindu Falguna) month.<br />Maha Shivratri<br /><br />Maha Shivratri is universally observed in all Hindu temples. The temples devoted Lord Shiva celebrates this festival in a grand manner.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Lord Shiva</span><br /><br />In the Hindu pantheon Lord Shiva is considered as the god manifested by himself. His consort is considered as the manifestation of power or Shakti. He is the Lord who liberates your soul from the cycle of death and rebirth. Attainment of His feet will remove the fear of death.<br /><br />Lord Shiva is worshipped in different names and forms - Shiva, Ishwar, Mahadev, Maheshwar, Sadhashiv, Pasupathi, Nataraja, Linga, Ishanan and so on.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Shiva Linga</span><br /><br />Lord Shiva is worshipped in three different forms: One with iconic image (Roopa); second without an image (Aroopa); and third with and without image (Roopa Aroopa). Shiva Linga marks the third form and it is a different kind of image worship.<br /><br />In the Shiva Puranas or Shiva epics the Shiva Linga form is considered as the manifestation of an 'infinite Cosmic Column of fire.' In spite of the good efforts Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu could not trace either the top or bottom of this cosmic column of fire.<br /><br />The Shiva Linga icon has three components. A pedestal part or 'Peetam', a middle part with circular or quadrangular receptacle or 'Avudaiyar' and the top part with cylindrical or elliptical structure or 'Linga' mounted on the middle part or Avudaiyar. It is believed that Lord Brahma resides in the pedestal; Lord Vishnu in the mid-portion and Lord Shiva in top most portion. Shiva Linga is represented as the cosmic column of fire. Therefore the icon is always cooled with holy water ablution or abhishekam. During ablution or abhishekam, the Shiva Linga idol is bathed with the holy water and the water gets drained through the receptacle.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Shiva Linga and Ablution</span><br /><br />The Siva Agamas (pooja rules) prescribe abhishekam as one part of the shodashopachara pooja. Abhishekam gets top priority in Shiva poojas. The Shiva Linga abhishekam is performed with the prescribed 11 ingredients: 1) Gingely oil 2) Pancha kavyam (mixture of five ingredients i.e. milk, curd or yoghurt, ghee and cow's urine) 3) Panchamrutham (mixture of five ingredients i.e. fruit, jaggery, ghee, honey and sugar candy) 4) Ghee 5) Milk 6) Curd or yoghurt 7) Honey 8) Sugar cane juice 9) Lime juice 10) Tender coconut water 11) Sandal paste Lord Shiva is fond of ablution or abhishekam and the Lord will be pleased by ablution or the process of bathing Shiva Linga with the prescribed eleven ingredients like water, milk, curd, ghee, honey etc. A Shiva devotee will receive the blessings of the Lord by performing holy water ablution water on the ‘Shiva Linga form.' The Lord will remove all his / her obstacles and the Lord will shower happiness and joy.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Prayer and Fasting</span><br /><br />The Shiva devotees or Saivites will observe fast during the day as well as during the holy night. They keep drinking the oscimum mixed holy water alone. They visit the Shiva temple during evening time. Men and women keep singing the holy verses in chorus.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Four Kalams (Four Parts of the Holy Night)</span><br /><br />The holy night commences at 6 p.m and continues till 6 a.m next day. On the holy night of Maha Shivratri there will be four ablutions or abhishekams for Shiva Linga. The entire twelve hours wil be divided in to four parts or Kalam and there will an ablution or abhishekam for Shiva Linga after every three hours. The priests will perform the ablution with the prescribed eleven ingredients.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Chanting Mantras</span><br /><br />Devotees will chant Panchakshara (Five Holy Letter) Mantra, 'Namah Shivaya' or 'Shivaya Namah.' They also chant 1008 Shiva Namahvali (1008 Holy Names of Lord Shiva) and offer holy Bilva Patras (Aegle marmelos - also known as Bael leaf) to the Lord.<br /><br />During the holy night Vedic scholars recite Sri.Rudram. At the central part of the Krishna Yajur Veda there is Sri.Rudram. Sri.Rudram, the most powerful Vedic hymn, praises Lord Shiva with all his names and forms. Sri.Rudram also includes the MAHA MRUTYUNJAYA Mantra. The chanting of the MAHA MRUTYUNJAYA Mantra will remove the fear of death.<br /><br />Harathi will be performed at the end of each kalam. Priests will distribute holy ash, holy water, milk and panchamirtham (jam mix made out of banana, jaggery, honey, dates and dry grapes, ghee, cardamom).<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Famous Shiva Temples: Must be Visited on Maha Shivratri Night</span><br /><br />Every Shiva temple is considered as holy abode of the Lord.

This year Vaikunta Ekadasi falls on January 7, 2009.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Why ‘Ekadasi’?</span><br /><br />Why ‘Ekadasi’ is so important? According to Hindu calendar (Hindus follow lunar month) the eleventh day of the waxing phase of the moon is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. There are twenty four ‘Ekadasis’ in a year. On this day the Hindus observe fasting to seek the blessings of Lord Vishnu.<br /><br />Ekadasi day falling in the waxing phase (Shukla Paksha) of the Hindu calendar month Dhanurmasa (Markazhi in Tamil calendar) (December – January) is called Vaikunta Ekadasi. On this most significant and auspicious day Lord Vishnu will enter into the gateway of salvation (Swarga Vasal or Paramapatha Vasal) at the precincts of Vaishnava temples.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Opening of Gateway of salvation</span><br /><br />This festival is being celebrated with the opening of Gateway of salvation in the early morning at Srirangam Sri Ranganatha Swamy temple (the most significant among 108 Vaishnavite shrines in Indian subcontinent), Balaji at Thirumala – Thirupathi and Sri Parthasarathy temple, Chennai and many more Vaishnava temples. This gateway will be usually located in the northern side of the temple. The devotees will also accompany the Lord to the gateway of salvation.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Devotion and Fasting</span><br /><br />People will observe fasting and keep awake on the previous (tenth day) night. They will chant mantras or recite holy Puranas or sing songs praising Lord Vishnu. In the early morning they will visit temples and pass through the gate of salvation. The gate will remain open for the entire day.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">According to Padma Purana:</span><br /><br />"Ekadasi vrata samam vrata nasti jagattraye anicchaya'pi yat krtva gatir evam vidha'vayoh ekadasi vratam ye tu bhakti bhavena kurvate na jane kim bhavet tesam vasudeva anukampaya"<br /><br />The meaning of the verse: Take the entire three worlds. No fasting is even comparable to the ‘Ekadasi Fasting.’ Any one can attain this Supreme Abode (Vaikuntam), even if he observes this fasting without proper procedure. On Ekadasi day, if one observes fasting with full devotion (procedure is not significant), he will be under the mercy of the Supreme Lord Vishnu. No one can describe the merit achieved by the devotee.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Padma purana</span><br /><br />There is a significant evidence for celebrating Ekadasi in the Padma Purana (the second and the most important among eighteen Hindu Puranas). A demon named Muran lived in the Krita Yuga. He obtained super power and started harassing Devas and their subjects. The Devas prayed Lord Vishnu and sought His help. On a Dhanurmasa (December – January) Lord Vishnu transformed into Ekadasi (typical female energy) and fought with Muran. Finally Lord Vishnu established His victory and destroyed Muran, the evil force. Lord Vishnu wanted people remember ‘Ekadasi’ the female energy. Therefore he announced that whoever observe fast and worships Lord Vishnu will attain Vaikuntam and will remain under the lotus feet of Lord Vishnu.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Margazhi Pakal Pathu - RaPathu Festival </span><br /><br />During Dhanurmasa there will be Margazhi Pakal Patthu Rapathtu Festival observed in Srirangam and other important Vaishnava temples. This 21 days festival commences ten days before Vaikunta Ekadasi and follows ten days after Ekadasi. The ten days before Ekadasi is known as ‘Pakal Pathu Festival. A part of Holy Nalayira Dhivya Prabandham (Holy Hymns composed by twelve Azhwars) will be recited during day time (In Tamil pakal means day). The ten days following Vaikunta Ekadasi is called Rapathu Festival. The remaining part of Holy Nalayira Dhivya Prabandham (Tamil Veda) will be recited during early night time (In Tamil Ira means night). The 21 day the holy marriage ceremony between Lord Vishnu and Andal will take place. With this marriage the festival comes to an end.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Reference Source:</span><br /><br />1) E Prarthana – Vaikunta Ekadasi - http://www.eprarthana.com/offers/vaikundaekadesi/vaikundaekadesi.asp<br /><br />2) Hindu Blog – Significance of Vaikunta Ekadasi - http://www.hindu-blog.com/2006/12/significance-of-vaikunta-ekadasi.html<br /><br />3) Pariharam – Vaikunta Ekadasi - http://www.pariharam.com/Vaikunda_Ekadesi.aspx<br /><br />4) The Hindu temple – Vaikunta Ekadasi - http://www.thehindutemple.ca/VaikundaEkadasiPhotos.htm<br /><br />5) Srirangam – Vaikunta Ekadasi festival - http://www.srirangam.co.in/vaikunda_ekadasi_festival.php Today mehndi has also become popular in the West.<br /><br />Published in Hubpages<br />http://hubpages.com/hub/Significance-of-Viakunta-Ekadasi-Festival<br /></div>iramuthusamy@gmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06984895501704670109noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-191857258794837303.post-1640675069424002072010-12-15T04:38:00.000-08:002010-12-15T04:45:11.195-08:00How To Celebrate Navaratri with Golu<span style="font-weight: bold;">Nine Days Hindu Festival to Invoke Shakthi</span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Navratri - the nine sacred nights, is a festival celebrated, with great fervor both religiously and socially, all over India to commemorate the victory of the good over the evil. The celebrations spread over nine auspicious nights. According to Hindu belief, ‘The Embodiment of Divine Power' (Para-Shakti), has three important manifestations: Maha- Saraswati (Goddess Of Knowledge) (Satwic), Maha-Lakshmi (Goddess of Wealth and Prosperity) (Rajasic) and Mahakali or Durga (Warrior Goddess) (Tamasic). During the Navaratri, the Goddess "Para-Shakti" is struggling to overcome the forces of vice, wickedness and egoism and on Vijaya Dashami (Dasara, the tenth Day commemorating victory), she conquers and destroys all evil forces (i.e. bringing to an end the atrocities of Asuras like Mahishasuran, Shumban, Nishumban, Madhukaidapan, Thumralochanan and Rakthabheejan). Para-Shakti is all-pervasive, omnipotent, infinite as well as all-knowing.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Navaratri - Devoted to Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswati. </span><br /><br />The Navaratri has been divided into three components. The first three days are dedicated to the worship of Durga, the next three days to the worship of Lakshmi and the last three days to the worship of Saraswati. On the occasion of Navaratri, we invoke three kinds of potential energies--Ichchaa Shakti (will power), Kriyaa Shakti (the power of action) and Jnana Shakti (the power of discrimination) from Goddess Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswat. On the tenth day (Vijaya Dasami), we offer the valedictory worship to mark the victory of good over evil by Durga. It is a festival of thanksgiving. Gratitude is divine. Ingratitude is demonic.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Vasant and Sarat Navaratris. </span><br /><br />In North India, people celebrate two Navaratris - Vasant and Sarat. Vasant Navaratri falls during April-May (Hindu Calendar month Caitra) and Sarat falls during September-October (Hindu Calendar month Ashwin). The ninth day of Caitra is doubly auspicious and is celebrated as the birthday and marriage day of Lord Rama (Rama Navami). In South India, Sarat Navaratri is celebrated with the dates falling in Shukla Paksha, a day after the new moon in Puratasi month (Tamil Calendar), which is September-October month in the Western calendar.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Golu and its philosophy. </span><br /><br /> In Tamil, Nadu Navarathri is celebrated by setting up ‘Golu' in a corner of every home (i.e. a gallery of handcrafted dolls representing major deities, scenes from everyday life, thematic doll sets representing mythological events or even modern day happenings and so on). In Tamil, Golu means a sovereign sitting in his royal durbar. The underlying belief in arranging these Navratri dolls on the tier is to depict that Goddess Durga or Mahishasuramardini is sitting in her Golu, prior to the slaying of the demon Mahishasura.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Kalasa Puja.</span> <br /><br />The housewives commence golu with "Kalasam puja." Instead of icon or photo we represent the goddesses in the form of kalasam. What is Kalasam? The Hindu house holds will always represent God or Goddesses in kalasam. For Kalasam, they will choose brass or silver pot and fill the brass or silver pot with water. After this, they will place a coconut amidst mango leaves on top of the pot.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Through the Kalasa puja mantra, they will invoke the power of goddess Durga or Parashakthi to come reside in kalsam or pot. It is called 'Avahanam.' After this puja it is believed that goddess Durga will be reigning our households for the entire nine days. She is the prime deity of Navaratri. So they attach more importance to this Kalasam and do kalasa puja.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">After this puja, the Kalasam is kept in the golu i.e. first and foremost place and will remain fresh for the whole of nine days. During these nine days, the pot or Kalasam is decorated with new clothes, flower and sandal paste. Daily prayer, invocation songs, offerings, etc. will be performed with devotion. Once the festival is over, we will perform some rituals and remove kalasam and pour water in a well or pond. After this, everything comes to normalcy.<br /><br />Our Mantra is powerful and invokes the goddess to reside in the pot full of water. For those who feel it difficult to understand '<span style="font-style: italic;">Kalasa puja</span>', it is a simple ritual to represent goddess PARA SHAKTHI in a pot or kalasam.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Number of tiers and steps in arrangements. </span><br /><br />Golu means display. Goddess is present in our home during these nine days. The house holds organising 'GOLU' will prepare the display furniture either in metal or in wood. The furniture or golu stand will have nine steps or tiers. The furniture or golu stand is readily available in the market. The slanting steps are like our door steps or staircase steps. Imagine a furniture is designed to display dolls in graded steps or tiers.<br /><br />The furniture or golu stand has 9 tiers or steps. It is significant that the Navaratri Golu is set up with the arrangement of dolls on an odd number of steps (usually 3,5,7,9). The counting of the first step begins from top and proceeds to the bottom most step. The top most is step one, the next one is step two and the step nine is the bottommost one.<br /><br />Maximum number of tiers in which dolls are arranged are 9 depending on time and space constraints. The golus show different themes in different homes - from the elaborate, extravagant ones to the simple, traditional and artistic ones. Year after year the women folk enthusiastically organize these dolls as per their tastes. Yet there are beliefs and conventions in arranging dolls in respective steps:<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Tiers 1-3: </span>You are expected to arrange Kalasam on the first tier or step. The first tier or step begins on top of the display furniture (golu stand). Goddess Durga or Mahishasuramardini, Maha Lakshmi, Maha Saraswati, Siva, Vishnu, Brahma and all other gods and goddesses occupy tier one to three. You may keep Dasavatharam set.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Tiers 4-6:</span> Counting from top to bottom. You are expected to organize the next three steps to saints like Azhwars, Nayanmars, Guru Raghavendra, Sai Baba, and the like and you may even locate men and women of importance, i.e. national leaders like Mahatma Gandhi, Ramakrishna Paramahamsar, Swami Vivekananda etc.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Tier 7:</span> Counting from top to bottom. You are free to organize sets of dolls on themes like family, marriage, festivals like Deepavali, Rama Navami, Krishna Jayanthi, etc.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Tier 8:</span> Counting from top to bottom. You may organize sets of dolls according to your imagination and creativity. You may arrange various businesses and crafts, say for example your Chettiar dolls sitting in his business shop surrounded by grocery items like rice, pulses kept in bags or other utensils.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Tier 9:</span> Bottom-most tier. You have the liberty to arrange the traditional wooden dolls called (Marapachi) - covered and decorated with glittering dresses. So also you may keep dolls of fish, tortoise, reptiles, birds, lion, tiger, cow, bulls, etc.<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Nine days rituals. </span><br /><br />You may invite your friends and relatives to view your golu. Every day you are supposed to offer sweet pongal, sweets, sundal (boiled dhall with spices), etc., as naivedhyam and distribute amongfriends and relatives. Every day, you may dress up your children with fancy dresses depicting Lord Krishna, Devi Lakshmi or Devi Saraswati and so on. You may offer clothes, coconut, fruits, sweets, small mirror, kumkum, turmeric, comb, beetle leaves with supari to married woman folks (Sumangalis).<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Conclusion. </span><br /><br />On the 10th night after the ceremonial art and prayers, the dolls are put to ‘sleep.' You may pack up the dolls and preserve them for the next year golu.<br />Muthusamy's Expertise: Experienced professional in Information Science. Published papers.
