The
holy Cauvery basin abounds in temples of all kinds, and for all gods
too. Particularly in the region of its final course, and before
merging into the sea, there are hundreds of temples of great
antiquity. In the Tanjore district and around Kumbhakonam, one can
'find at every 3 kilometers a great kshetra that beckons ardent
worship and bath in the river or pushkarini. Their legends are so
quite fascinating and fantastic, that the listeners and readers feel
at once electrified and decide to make instant trips to them for
worship. The Sivalilas, of course, far surpass the sports, of other
adorable deities. Each place is
visit-worthy, and every sport of the Lord, praise-worthy.
