So I was there till the Abhishekam got over. There was an Abhishekam that was being done to Lord Muruga that time. "So we entered that road and within a few feet this Ettukudi Murugan Temple was there. Only the time factor was not correct that time, during Karthika Deepam." But this was always at the back of my head. I cancelled my reservations to Nagapattinam and headed to Erode. "Shan, do you remember I had mentioned about "Ettukudi Murugan Temple" to you two months back and I also told you that I am planning to go there and then go to Nattadreeshwar temple? But mysterious circumstances made me cancel this and head towards Nattadreeshwar temple. So we drove back and started to proceed towards Agasthyapalli." "Get into that road and straight 5 kilometers you reach Vedaranyam and another 5 kilometers you reach Agasthyapalli. Go 2 kilometers backwards, there will be a road on the right side of this main road with a board reading Ettukudi Murugan Temple." "When I heard the name ETTUKUDI MURUGAN TEMPLE, I told him that this temple was near Nagapattinam, for which he answered, "Why Amma you want to go to Nagapattinam for this. He told us that the easiest way to go to Vedaranyam was, through "Ettukudi Murugan Temple" which he said we had crossed." He told us that we had traveled/crossed past the road, that led to Vedaranyam. "So he stopped the car at this point and he asked a guy who was sitting in a small shop near by, the directions to reach Vedaranyam. Just 14 kilometers more to reach Nagapattinam border and after that there is no land. as we almost reached the border of Nagapattinam. "After traveling 150 kilometers, there was no sign of reaching Vedaranyam. It is around 150 Kilometers from Swamimalai. "So after finishing with Varadaraj, I started on my way to Vedaranyam, Agasthyapalli to meet OUR FATHER. He then went on to narrate that, they had exported Bronze idols of Amma, Lord Shiva (smaller sizes), Vinayagan etc. Hence the idea of the number 23 struck him.Truly amazing. When I further questioned him, as to why 23 ft, he said. The Height of the Shiva is 17 ft and the Peedam is 6 ft which equals 23 ft. When I asked Vadharaj, what prompted him to carve out this huge Murthy of Lord Shiva, he replied that he wanted to enter the Guinness Book of World Records, of having carved and sculpted the largest Murthy of Lord Shiva IN THE WORLD. "On my right is Vadharaj and on my left is Cheenu. AND HOW THEY WENT ABOUT FINISHING AGATHIYAR'S MURTHY WHICH NOW SITS MAJESTICALLY AT YOUR TEMPLE. Sketched it as per the instructions given by you to Varadharaj. "AMAZING GRACE." Cheenu narrated to me, as to how he went to Agasthiyapalli, studied the Murthy of Agathiyan there. The Architects/Artists/Sculptors behind the carving and making of Agathiyan at your temple, Shan. THE TWO CREATIVE GENIUSES OF 'CREATIVE BRONZE". I was moved to tears when he said that he was waiting to show me this work."
he replied that they do not and will not allow a single person to enter this place, apart from his assistants who work on this project. When I asked Varadharaj if he allowed the public inside to view this. To be able to touch the "Murthy of Lord Shiva. Varadharaj says that everything will be completed in 5/6 months' time. Am yet to meet him, as he was busy those days, but he will be accompanying me to Vallimalai and Kathirgamam (Sri Lanka)."Īt Varadharaj's factory. Krishnan's WISDOM IS UNFATHOMABLE and it is only Lord Muruga's Blessings that you (me) were able to connect with him. Sundaram, who,a very senior and enlightened soul and president of the Thirupuzal Sangam, Dr. Krishnan is associated with the Thirupugazh Sangam and is on the lineage of Vallimalai Sachithananda Swamy. The people whom you see in the second pic, are the good souls arranged by Mr Krishnan. Krishnan had arranged a couple of his aids to assist me.
"Had just finished having a wonderful Dharshan of Lord Muruga and had descended the stairs.
