Arulmigu Sri Vyagrapureeswarar Temple — Attraction in Tamil Nadu

This place was known as 'Tharparavanam' in Satya Yuga, 'Mathuvanam' in Treta Yuga, 'Thevavanam' in Dvapara Yuga, and 'Vyagrapuram' in Kali Yuga. As Tharpara Maharishi did penance in this place, this place was known as Tharparanpuliyur. As a frog known as 'Thappanai' worshipped here this was also known as Thaplampuliyur. Once a Brahmin who lived in Kasi took an oil bath on the day of 'Dvadasi' and got the curse to become a tiger and he became so. He worshipped the deity of this place and got his curse cured. As a tiger got its curse cured this deity of the temple is Vyagrapurisvarar.Vyaghrapada, also known as tiger-legged Rishi and Patanjali worshipped this place, the temple got its name. As the goddess bestows the wedding boon she is known as Nityakalyani. She is compared with the deity of Ujjain and other goddess of many temples in Tamil Nadu. She is worshipped as a family deity by many devotees. Generally in the kosta of the Shiva temples Vinayaka, Dakshinamurthy, Lingodbhava, Vishnu, Brahma, and Durga would be found. But in this temple, as Patanjali, Vyaghrapada, and Manduga rishi worshipped here, Nataraja is found in the kosta. In the place of Lingodbhava, Ardhanarishvara is found.

I hope my above finds to this temple is correct. Not famous but very important temple if my finding are relevant to this temple. You can find remains of old temple which may have existed in...

A Hill temple dedicated to lord Shiva, which is located just right beside one of the busiest chengalpattu toll gate. Yet, not many people know about this hill temple, hence maintaining its peace and silence from the busy crowd.

This temple is more than 2000 years old and has many Jeeva samadhi around the hill area.

Very recently they have made a jeevasamadhi for saidapet parthasarathy swamigal and did Guru Puja too. you will find more details about this siddhar in a YouTube channel called siddhar desam.

You will have a very beautiful view of the chengalpet lake from the top of this hill.

Very mind calming ambience and a good place for meditation. Try to be here in the early morning or in the evening before sunset to have the best experience.

More than the visual treat in this temple you will have an emotional retreat for your soul, try to sit in silence for sometime and you might feel the magic.

you won't have any shops or food facility on the top of this hill if you are planning to stay here for sometime try to plan accordingly. But please don't dispose the packing materials in this hill and kindly dispose the plastic and nondegradable waste responsibly 🙏🙏🙏
