Sri Vedagiriswarar Temple / Sri Bakthavachaleswarar Temple, Thirukazhukundram Kumbhabhishekam 15-09-2013, Chengalpattu District, Tamil Nadu. THALANGAL - THONDAI NADU,

 16, September 2013
When I went to Thirukalukundram, Sri Bakthavachaleswarar temple, two weeks before, the temple authorities gave me an invitation to the Kumbhabhishekam, which is scheduled on 15-09-2013. I am not a frequent visitor to the temples on Kumbhabhishekam day, fearing the rush. For this I made up my mind to be present at Thirukalukundram on Kumbhabhishekam day. There was lot of devotees gathered inside the temple, even from far off places too.

On reaching the temple I selected a spot, where I could see the maximum Rajagopuras and Vimanas, especially Moolavar vimanam, on the east side. Really it was very interesting to watch the holy water was poured on the kalasams of  Vimanas and Rajagopuras at the same time by lot of Sivachariyars, amids of the chanting of "Om Namasivaya" and the  Thirukkayilaya vathyam played by one section of devotees. Now I feel that I had lost many opportunities like this.  Any way I will try to attend in future for the kumbhabhishekam.  Really it was worth to visit  to the temple. Thanks to Lord Shiva for given me this wonderful opportunity.
