THE FIERCE LORD OF ETTUMANUR

Nalamkal recalls in his assay the occasion when he had this splendid darshan in 1962 when the night atmosphere was filled with the melodies of the late Nadaswaram Vidwan, Karaikuruchi Arunachalam, who was singing "Sabhapatiku veru daivam samanamakuma ... is there any god equal to Sabhapati or Siva?

As at Vaikom, during Ashtami here also a large copper vessel is kept in front of the deity wherein devotees drop coins - kanikka idal. Even misers are liberal in their offerings of cash on this occasion and in any case no one leaves after the darshan without making any offering.
