Special feature: | |
|
|
A fragrant oil (Sambirani thailam) is applied on the Shivalinga. As the Shivalinga is too small, a cup is placed upside down to facilitate darshan. Abishek is performed to this cup only. The place is also considered the holy place where sage Parasurama worshipped Lord Shiva to repent for his sin of killing his own mother. The tank he created here is known as Parasurama tank. People pray here for union with their separated life partners and release from serious sins. As a custom, Gajalakshmi may be seen in the west entrance of Shiva temples. In the Alandurayar temple, Parasurama is seen in a lying form. | |
