DANCING AROUND A TREE

There is again another awesome tradition observed in this temple i.e., the priest dancing round an Ilanju tree lying outside the campus.  And offering of prayers with a ring placed on the leaf. The belief is fortified by a strange event that took place in the dim past. Now listen! An Ilanju tree lying on the south side of the tower is imbued with mystical powers. It tells an interesting story and bends the heads of the visitors. Incidentally, it focuses light on the sanctity of every object here exuding divinity and the Lord's infinite mercy for his bhaktas. According to the word current here, once a man afflicted with an incurable skin disease came here and started praying to the Lord for cure. when every doctor tried and failed. Being a man of great faith in God, he used to sit on the platform beneath that Ilanju tree for meditation from the opening of the temple doors to the closing till late in the night. He did this for long.
