When I told my about the missed
opportunity of attending my friend Mr. Venkatesh, son’s marriage at Devakottai, one of my friends Mr. Nachiappan, in turn, invited me to Devakottai
to attend the Kottai Amman’s annual 15 days festival, which is unique in nature
and lakhs of people used attend from various parts of India. So I decided
to attend the festival to get the blessings of Sri Kottai Amman. I
stayed along with his family and visited Two Shiva temple and a Saibaba temple.
SRI
SAIBABA TEMPLE, DEVAKOTTAI.
This
temple was built by former Chief Justice AR Lakshmanan through his own fund
and managed by his brothers. The temple faces east with an entrance arch on the south side. The Saibaba idol was sculptured from white marble and brought
from north India. A Vinayagar temple is by the side of Saibaba temple.
The architecture is of North Indian style. It was told that Sri Sai Baba’s
miracle Vibhuti appeared on the plate.
HOW
TO REACH :
Devakottai
is about 20 KM from Karaikudi and frequent buses are available from Karaikudi
The
temple is on Gandhi Road near Lions Club Hall.
Autos
are available from the Bus stand.

Thank you.
That Vibhuti appears from a small Saibaba statue available at Former Chief justice Mr Laksmanans' residence Pooja room and not at the temple
