TRICHAMBARAM KRISHNA TEMPLE

Once a man afflicted with a severe skin disease with sores all over the body came to Trichambaram as a last resort.  He spent his entire time in the temple worshipping the Lord.  He would make his appearance in the morning as the sanctum opened and would go out only at night when the temple doors were closed.  He often sat on the platform beneath an IIanji tree on the south side. 

The fruit falling on his body hurt him and he writhed in pain.  One day he cried out to the Lord and asked him why he did not show mercy to him.  Eventually the tree stopped bearing any fruit and he was also cured of the fell-disease.
