Re: Beautiful Ganpati.... HI The Ganapati snaps are really nice.:yes: Thanks for sharing with us.:2thumbsup: Gayathri.
Growing Hanuman in Madurai temple Dear ladies, Those of you from Madurai should know this already. In Madurai Meenakshi Amman temple, in Swami Sannathi near vennai Kaali amman, there is Anjaneyar statue in a pillar. As I am born and brought up in Madurai, I have been observing that Anjaneyar is growing in stature. Many have agreed with me on this. Here is a photo of the Growing Anjaneyar. One 'mei silirka vaikum' observation is that if you look closely in the photo in the suns rays near the opposite pillar you can observe Anjaneyar dancing. I really do not know how this came about.
Re: Growing Hanuman in Madurai temple Hi TamilDU, Thanks for a fascinating pic. Where can we see the Anjaneyar dancing? I could make out a hazy head, and then down and right? Right as in correct???? I am grateful you posted this pic and related info here. Incidents like this of divinity actually evolving/manifesting in real dimension and space has always fascinated me. In Trivandrum Padmanabhaswamy temple, residents in the nearby agraharams reported at times they hear the roar of a lion. This is supposed to be from the YogaNarasimhar there. In nearby Varkala, the Janardhanaswamy holds water in His Palm. It is believed that when the raised Palm fully reaches His Lips, we will be deluged by Pralaya. My patti used to give us creeps everytime we visited the temple, saying that His Palm has moved closer to the lips, and it cos of our misdeeds. But I once heard a temple priest report the same too, so am tempted to believe it. I heard that in Tiruppur Venkatachalapathy temple, the Idol sweated during the kumbhabhishekam due to the Mantra shakthi. OOps, I am rambling. Thanks again for this great info and divine pic. I will try to visit this temple when I come home. I hope our IL Hanumar Bhaktas like Preethi see this post. Good work, TamilDU.Like all yr poems and jokes! regards Vidya
Re: Growing Hanuman in Madurai temple Hi I am unable to see the picture?!! Is there anything wrong with my system or its not downloaded properly? plz post it once again. I wonder about this and I would wish to watch that temple. But I've never been to tamilnadu (madhurai is in tamilnadu right? ). So I'll try to go definitely bcoz my freinds were also being telling that temples in tamilnadu will be very nice. Thank in advance Gayathri.
