LORD OF VAIKOM

Thus the three spots-Vaikom, Kaduthuruthy and Ettumanur-were sanctified simultaneously. It is believed as stated in the previous chapter that darsha these places on the same day is highly auspicious.

Vyaghrapada, a great saint in his owns right worshipped the Shivalinga at Vaikom with extreme devotion. Thus in due course the place also acquired his name-'Vyaghrapada puram' or 'Vyaghrapuri' and ultimately Vaikom for short.
