Korravai Temple, Periya theru, Mangalam, Tiruvannamalai District, Tamil Nadu

The visit to this Sri Korravai Amman Temple at Mangalam village, Periya Theru, was part of “Shiva, Vishnu and Korravai Temples Visit, around Vandavasi” on 27th September 2026. I sincerely thank Mrs. Uma Jairam for taking me to this temple.


This Korravai Amman temple is a shrine with 3 walls and no roof, and kotravai is worshipped.

The Korravai is in the form of a bas-relief on a flat stone. The Korravai is in a three-bhanga standing posture with 8 hands. She holds Shankha, chakra, sword, Trishul, bell, shield, and bow. Her lower left hand is resting on something clear, and her right hand is Abhaya hastam. She is shown with karanda makuta, wearing ornaments around the neck and elongated earlobes. She wears a dress below the waist. She keeps her right leg on the ground, and the left leg is on a person. The vahana buck is shown on her right side.
