PALANI

Moreover, with the passage of time, the fame of this temple's deity popularly known as Dandayudhapani is growing in dasadisas, and on the basis of this unprecedented fame, one can infer that many shrines of once global importance may likely go without adorers.  What then is the cause of that popularity? Who is responsible for that phenomenal growth? A look at his birth and growth lifts and curtain on the mystery.  So turn the pages of legends for illumination.

Legends do vary in certain aspects and a few accounts seem contradictory to one another, but if we keep in memory that they are the works of the god intoxicated writers, whose chief ambition is to lead the erring to the goal be resorting to customary prices their trade, we will be elevated and get contentment.
