06^th August 207.

How the place Nanganallur has  got its name ?..Since Sri Raja Rajeswari as a 16 years old young  girl, blesses us  from her shrine on the16^th Street  Thillai Ganga Nagar, Nanganallur. Originally the place was called as Nangai-Nallur,  latter changed to  Nanganallur,  This Rajarajeswari temple is a Private temple of Sri Rajarajeswari Ashram ( AVR TRUST ) headed by Sri Rajagopala Swamigal.

The temple is facing east with an entrance from North. The temple is constructed like a big house. Sannidhi for Thathathreyar, Bairavar are immediately after the entrance on the both sides. Main sanctum  is in an elevated level with 16 steps. To reach the main shrine we have to circumambulate from left to right after worshiping Ganesha and Durga. Since Ambal is installed on mahameru with yantars, gents are asked to remove shirt and banians to absorb the good waves emanating from the main sanctum. The special pooja in this temple is the Kungum pooja. It will be supplied along with archana and has to be deposit in the Box along with name, birth star, Thithi, Tithi Nithya. When Sri Rajagopala Swamigal touches the kungum packet, the person who had deposited wishes will come in the mind of Swamiji.

Dwajasthambam and Simha vahanam are  before the entrance of the main sanctum steps. At the start of the step sanga nidhi and Padmanidhi on both sides of the steps.  There are 16 steps on purva paksha ( climbing side ) and 16 steps on amara paksham ( climbing down side ) with Ambal’s incarnation statues  on each step with Agasthya Munivars hymn engraved below that.

LEGENDS AND HISTORY

As per the legend Ambal forced Sri Rajagopala Swamigal to built a temple after quitting the Bank job. The work was started with a donation of Rs 101 from Pournami mami followed by Sivasankari Ammaiyar, who donated Rs 1000.00. All the contributions came from his disciples. Ambal was shifted to this new place in 1970 ( Ambal temple was existed since ancient times on the same place where a new temple was constructed ). The temple was built not as per the agama. And poojas are conducted as per Sri Vidya procedure, hence the Sivachariyar cannot do pooja. Sri Rajagopala Swamigal trained his disciples to carryout the pooja. As per Ambal’s direction, the Ambal was installed on Pinathu place as per merupirastharam. 

The special pooja in this temple is the Kungum pooja. It will be supplied along with archana and the same has to be deposited in the Box ( Archana Kungum has to be purchased only in the temple ). 

It is believed that Agasthiyar and Thirumoolar worshiped Ambal of this temple ( as per hearsay that Amabl temple existed on the same place ) and Power will be there for another 1000 years.
