As for the boy
he made a hole to the south of the passage of the west gopuram and installed the pipe
there. It is this hole that is used for the oath taking.
But despite all this is Chengannur Bhagavati essentially of a benign aspect. She is the
Mother Goddess, the personification of love towards her devotees. She is: Sarvalamkarayuktham Satatamabhayadam
Bhakta namram bhavanim
Sri Vidyam Santa murthim Sakalasuranutam
Sarvasampat pradatrim.
She who dispels fear, whose devotees bow before her, who is the embodiment of peace; who
is Srividya herself, who is praised by the Gods, and who gives every kind of wealth that
is sought.
