In 1680, he decided to visit the Goddess Samayapuram Mariamman in Tiruchirapalli. Maratha King Venkoji Maharaja Chatrapathi (1676-1688) was an ardent devotee of Goddess Mariamman. The Goddess is called Punnainallur Mariamman. It is believed that Shiva established the Ashta Shaktis (eight powers) in eight directions, and the one located in the east is the presiding deity of the temple. The deity is self-manifested.Īccording to the Sthala Purana, Shiva fought a battle with the Asura Tanja of Tanjore (Thanjavur). Goddess Mariamman is a manifestation of Goddess Shakti, and she is also known as Muthu Mariamman as drops of moisture (resembling pearls) appear on the face and forehead of the granite idol during summer months. The temple lies six miles away from the city of Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, and is a famous temple. So the priest told us to think only positive and good things as whatever you thinks is believed will come true.Įnjoy the temple and get the blessings of Guru Baghawan.The temple at Punnainallur is dedicated to Goddess Mariamman. The faith is praying to this Guru will help rewrite ones fate. The yellow pushparaga stone on Guru is large and very attractive. The Guru Sannathi is outside to the left of the main Garbhagraha. The stones are very cold and can condense water from air through the narrow passage downward and water drips every few minutes to hours on the Linga depending on the moisture in the air. The temple houses two stones called Chandrakanta stone and Suryakanta stone. The main shrine hosts the beautiful Vashishteshwarar and the faith is this Guru Vashistar prayed to this Linga for the sake of humanity. The temple ambal in the temple is so beautiful and the navagrahas are placed on the ceiling outside the ambal shrine. You can complete few other navagraha Temples on way from kumbakonam. Went to this temple on a Monday when the crowd was minimal or almost absent. This is the only place where you can see Guru Bhagavan who is the Raja Guru, in standing posture with 4 hands holding his weapons and a book.
But for a small hole, there is no source of water or anything, on the Vimana of the main deity.
A unique feature of this temple is a drop of water falls on the Lingam (Main Deity) exactly every twenty four minutes (1 Naazhigai) from the roof.
There was a Shiva Lingam in the location and became a temple. After looking for a safe place, they found Thittai, which did not drown in during Pralayam. During pralayam cross the world, Brahma & Vishnu worshipped the Lord Shiva for protection. Route : The temple is located 11 kms from Thanjavur, enroute to Kumbakonam. Parking : Paid parking for lot of cars in big ground and by the temple available. Deity : Vasisteshwaran / SwayambootheswararĪbout : This is one of the 275 Paadal Petra Sthalams.
