15th May,
2016.
Three
days holiday, it includes a second Saturday and May 16, 2016, a Voting day. Hot
summer outside, what to do, Hide in the indoors. Thought of
Visiting Sri Muni of Burma colony, at Ekkaduthangal. Planned to Visit the
Shiva Temple also near the St Thomas Mount Bus stop. I had been to the muni
temple twice earlier, while I was in Jafferkhanpet. During my earlier
visit, I had not seen the Shiva with face.
The
temple is dedicated to Sri Angala Eswari and Muneeswarar.
Some
of the important details are..
The
main sanctum Sri Vinayagar, Sri Angala Eswari and Kali ( stucco image of Kali is on the back of the wall) are side by side, in a row. In
koshtam, Vinayagar, Dakshinamurthy, Mahavishnu, Brahma, and Durgai (
similar to a Shiva Temple ).
In
the outer prakaram, sannidhi for Madurai Veeran, Sri Valli Devasena
Subramaniar ( Arupadai veedu moorthangal are in koshtam) and
Naagars.
Stucco images of Annapoorani and Saraswathi are at the entrance of Sri Angala Eswari
sannidhi.
There
is a small muni sannidhi in front of Big Muni. The
main Muni is about 40 feet with a sickle ( aruvaa) in the
right hand, which will be around 10 feet high. Stucco images are around the
four corners of the base. The base itself will be around 10
feet high. Minute stucco reliefs on the muni’s ornament and
cap. Vinayagar is on the cap, Angala Eswari, Saraswathi, Annapoorani are in the
ornament. On the hip and handsome Stucco images too. On the base reliefs of
Buddha, ladies form elephant, Horse, and elephant & cow- Rishaba Kunjaram- is worth watching.
THE
TEMPLE TIMINGS:
The Temple will be kept open between 07.00 hrs to 11.00 hrs and 17.00 hrs to 19.00 hrs.

ReplyDeleteIn Mar 2010, Case Western Reserve University and the Temple Tifereth-Israel announced a historic partnership to create the Milton and Tamar Maltz Performing Arts Center, which was led by a donation of $12 million from the Maltz Family Foundation of the Jewish Community Federation of Cleveland. The university estimates that the total renovation of the building will require $25.6 million, with an additional $7 million needed for construction of a pedestrian bridge/walkway to connect the building to the university campus.Under the agreement, the Jewish community will continue to use the facility for yearly special events.'
