MOTHER RAJARAJESWARI OF CHOTTANIKARA

THE STORY OF YAKSHI

The Yakshi has an awe-some tale to tell. And it is MOTHER Rajarajeswari that saved an innocent adorer from the clutches of this terrible Yakshi. In memory of that event, her image is installed here.

According to story, once a pious Nambudri by name Guptan belonging to Kandarapalli Illom chanced to meet a phantom of beauty, on his way to Tripunithura one full moon night. She was found to be an engrossing piece of beauty who contrived to drag him into the cob-web of her captivating charms with sweet talk. 

Flashing sweet smiles and talking muscially she sought his company to reach Tripunithura along with him. Enslaved, as it were by her tall, slim form and magnetic oval shaped face, embellished with almond eyes, coral lips and flabby, rosy cheeks, the dove-like Nambudri okayed and led her upto his guru's house at Kosappalli on the way.
