This 2014,
year’s Sri Veeramathi Amman’s annual festival was held on 23rd July.
On 22nd my brother reminded me. So booked the ticket in ABT
for the onward and return journey. Since it was a working day
I could easily got the ticket. I reached Erode around 05.30 Hrs. After taking
bath we could able to reach the temple at Talguni, Kolappalur, near
Gobichettipalayam around 08.00 Hrs. It was too late and we missed the
abhishekam. After worshiping our Kula Deivam, went to native village
Pappavalasu to see my mother. After my mothers blessings returned to
Chennai.

When I crossed Kolappalur near
Gobichettipalayam, I noticed this old building with hand made tiled roof. This
building was built during 1911, nearly 103 years ago. This was in memory of the
British Kings pattabhishekam. ( In India there are some loyalists to
Britishers. )
When I was waiting for the bus, I could notice 2 heads on a pedestal. I was told that this a Kaaval theivam of this place Kolappalur. ( Normally Kaval Deivam will be at the end of the village ). The Kaval deivam name is pottusamy. During festival for Pachai Nayaki Amman, people used to worship this kaval deivam first and then Pachai Amman.
