This was one of the Vinayagar Chathurthi
special darshan of Sri Venkatesa Ananda Vinayagar Temple in the midst of the
Traffic island at Madhya Kailash, Adyar. Chennai.
Moolavar : Sri Venkatesa Ananda Vinayagar
Some of the important features of this are…
The temple faces east and has a three-tier Rajagopuram. The temple floor is nine steps below the Ground level. Previously, the Vinayagar was in the middle of the road. During the formation of the IT express highway ( Rajiv Gandhi Salai ), the Vinayagar was shifted to its present place, and the temple was constructed.
Dwajasthambam, Palipedam, and Vahana moonchuru
are immediately after the Rajagopuram. In the praharam on the left sannidhi for
Sri Swetha Murthy ( Shiva Temple ), under the rudraksha mandapam. In koshtam
Brahma, Mahavishnu, and Dakshinamurthy.

like a chariot.
Sri Aathiyantha Prabhu—Sri Vinayagar is in a standing posture, a cheppu image. The devotees can perform pooja to this murthy with their own hands.
