TIRUPPARAKUNRAM
- KASI VISWANATHAR TIRUKKOVIL |
|
|
|
The
well-known hill temple at Tirupparakunram, one of the Arupadividus
dedicated to Lord Subrahmanya, where his wedding was celebrated with
Devayani, enshrines Kasi Viswanathar Tirukkovil atop the very little
hill in which he is abiding. This temple contains, among all, the
stone image of Nakkeerar, a Tamil poet of great eminence, who
challenged Lord Siva in a literary bout and won his argument.
Saivagama worship is offered to the lingam.
It
lies at 10 km from Madurai, the Premier temple city commanding all
types of conveyances including that of airways.
