Another fascinating discovery before I go to the navagrahas.
Thirupattur:27 kms from Tiruchi
Brammapuriswarar temple
A temple dedicated to Brahma
ancient and in ruins-the temple is now going through a revival of faith
It is believed that Brahma once had 5 heads and he became so conceited that He was the creator.Shiva unable to take it anymore had to show him he good destroy anything and therefore plucked off one of the heads of Brahma.
Brhma then sought forgivance and went about seeking help.He is said to have set up many Shiva Sthalas and finally at Thirupattur was given Moksha.
The temple houses a Shiva sanctum sanatorium and then there is a huge Brahma -very unique.
The stunningly beautiful Goddess is called Brahma Sampatha Gowri
The temple today has many coming in to offer their thanks-it is believed that this a good shetram for marriage and that those seperated can come together again.It is an important sthala for business too.
More importantly it is believed that it will change your destiny!!
Faith moves mountains-many times when we hear or read these stories we laugh at them-because it isnt "logic".But to those down-for those in the throes of problems ,these temples become a source of hope and in the simple stories is the message that however high up you might be ,some things can bring about your downfall or act as impediments to happiness.Private Reply to Shobha(usha) gowri (new win) |
