The
compassionate MOTHER rushing to the spot grabbed the running yakshi
and cutting her into two pieces threw them into the temple tank. The
water at once turned red, and still it is retaining that colour. It
is called Raktakulam. Needless to prolong, the Nambudri was saved
and this event when reached far and wide brought thousands of the
possessed victims to the MOTHER'S temple for cure.
And
every case was a success and hence the fame spread to the four
corners that Rajarajeswari Mata is peerless among the goddesses
with-similar powers towarding off evil spirits and her compassion is
matchless. Thousands and thousands of devotees visit this place
either for cure, or to offer prayers after relief, in token of
gratitude.
The
number of the haunted, mentally afflicted, possessed etc. is a
legion. It is indeed a sight to see on Fridays during the noon pooja,
when the whole temple reverberates with the sounds of Amme Narayana
and Devi Narayana' shouted at the highest pitch by the afflicted
persons. The beating of drums and clanging of bells during the
dialogue between the divine power and the evil powers and the
horrors following the eviction of spirits are to be seen and
believed than to be recounted and described.
