Thiruthani Murugan Temple

Thiruthani Sri Subramanya Swami temple

This temple @ Thiruthani needs no propaganda as it is one of the Renowned abode of Lord Muruga. This is my first blog on Lord Muruga & this visit is my first visit to this temple as well. This temple is said to have 325 steps. There is also road leading to the temple.

குன்றிருக்கும் இடம் குமரன் இருப்பிடம்

As the above tamil statement, wherever there is a hill, the residing deity is Lord Muruga or Subramaniya Swami, the Son of Lord Shiva.  Lord Muruga is seen as Tamil Kadavul or Lord of the Tamil people as He has lot of things to do with Tamil.



My Trip: 
   I actually had no plans to visit this temple. We actually visited a temple at Putlur near Thivallur and as I had this long time wish of visiting this temple, IT actually happened. 
அவனருளாலே அவன்  தாழ் வணங்கி 

As a blessing We(Myself & my husband) drove to this temple and we were the gifted to have darshan of the Lord as last ones as it was closing time. The temple is like every other Murugar temple on hill top. The Lord gave us Darshan as a King in Green colored dress. As the day before our visit was the occassion of Krithikai & Shasti together we could see lot of decorations in temple. One cannot miss seeing devotees in every directing chanting "Arohara அரோஹரா " and carrying Kavadi (காவடி ) for the Lord.

The Lords consorts Valli is seen in seperate sanctum to the Lords' left & Deivanai to his right. The Praharam is small one with Adi Thanigai velam ( The old deity) placed just behind the main sanctum in the praharam. There is also Durgai in the praharam as seen in every Shivan temple.



We could see the temple painted newly and there is also a new Gopuram under construction.
