 Greatness Of Temple:
     
  12 feet tall Lord Balakrishna with His beloved Mother Yasodha is indeed a thrilling sight for the devotees.  Mother Yasodha is holding butter and a spoon in Her hands.  Thippiramalai Krishna Temple is indeed of a rare style both in the idol of Lord with His Mother and the building.  Lord Balakrishna appears with His conch and discus in the upper hands and a club in the lower left and butter in the right.  It is said that this Krishna idol is the tallest in India.  
     
  Temple History:
     
  Srimad Bhagavatham considered the last work of Sage Veda Vyasa speeks volumes of the gracious deeds of Lord Krishna.  It begins with His stealing butter.  He ate sand while an infant.  Knowing this when Mother Yasodha came to threaten Him with a stick and asked Him to open the mouth.  Child Lord opened His mouth only to show His Mother how the whole world with all its beings, trees, hills and rivers are contained in Him.  Thus He granted His Vishwarupa darshan to Mother.
The temple is understood to have been built about 800 years ago by a Vishnu devotee residing in Iranial.  Sri Krishna Jayanthi is grandly celebrated in the temple each year drawing huge crowd.  They also throng the temple on new moon days and on Saturdays in the month of Purattasi-September-October.   Any one, however sinful he/she is, is relieved of the dirt, if they chant the name Narayana or Krishna.  Lord grants all bliss to His devotees.
