10th January 2017.
This is one of the wish to see the
arudra darshan of Sri Natarajar at Uthirakosamangai, made out of precious
green emerald stone “maragatham”. Also many times Manickavasagar praised
Lord Shiva of Uthirakosamangai in Thiruvasakam. The abhishekam will be done
once in a year and the rest of the period the Natarajar will be coated with
sandalwood paste. It came to true on 10th and 11th January
2017. Usually the arudra darshan will happen during December
month and I was forced to stay at Chennai for attending official duty. This
year I was so happy, since it happened in the second week of January and
planned my travel 3 months in advance.
When I spelt out my plan to
Uthirakosamangai visit, my friends suggested go to Thirupullani, one of
the 108 Divya Desam / mangalasasana Vaishnava temple and Devipattinam associated with epic
Ramayan. Utilizing the opportunity booked the onward ticket to Rameswaram to
have the darshan of Lord Sri Ramanathaswamy. While travelling in the train it
was observed that many people are planning to attend arudra darshan at
Uthirakosamangai.
Landed Rameswaram on 10th morning
through Rameswaram express and had the darshan of Sri Parvathavardhini
samedha Sri Ramanathaswamy. During my previous visit the temple was preparing
for the kumbhabhishekam. The details and some of the photos taken are uploaded
in one of my previous post ( Click
