THE HISTORIC TALI TEMPLE

Thanks to the untiring efforts of the citizens of Calicut this once famous temple is again throbbing with life and divinity.

Worshipping both Siva and Krishna at one place as in Trichur, this writer could not help ruminating over the following lines 'of Skandopanishad:

Sivaya Vishnurupaya Siverupaya Vishnave

Swam lindayam Vlshnuh Vishnostu hridaym

Sivah

Yatha Sivamayo Vishnu evam Vishnumayah

Sivah

Yathantaram Na pasyami tathame swastirayushi.

Siva in the form of Vishnu and Vishnu in the form, of Siva (I bow down). Vishnu is the heart of Siva and Siva is the heart of Vishnu as both are essentially one. As I do not perceive any difference between the two may my life be blessed and prolonged.
