  TIRUVAAMATHUR - VATTAPERIAMMAN TEMPLE

This practice is gaining reputation for the temple, and it is going by the name of Satyasthapana kshetra. The Mother's miracles are many and this tops the list. Defaulters, who reform themselves by burning their commission in the fire of repentance, they are saved, and the Mother reward then though her miracles. And they are many. Here is an example.

Once a poet by name Erattir praised the Mother in his song. Unfortunately there was an error in his composition. It is-the river Pampa is separated from Penna on the western side. In fact, it is on the eastern side it is separated. So the critics took objection to it, slowing concrete proof of the flowing of river. So the poet cried piteously before the Mother and confessed that he did not utter it, and it is due to Mother Saraswati's sport who uttered thus through his mouth. In the same night there was heavy down pour and the river Pampa flooded the banks. And lo! it changed its course to the shock of the people, and proved that what the poet had said was a hundred percent truth. Needless to say that the Mother's miracle alone saved the penitent poet. So the temple which was on the eastern side of the river is now found on the Western side. Thus her sports are many and emancipation of Satyasandhas is as sure the sun rises in the east. The temple is carrying on regular and periodical worship with due rituals and is luring lakhs of devotees round the year.
