Recently visited
the motor town of Namakkal on a different mission; had the fortune of
worshipping the 18 feet tall, majestic Lord Anjaneya and had shared two posts –
the first one with majestic photo of Lord Anjaneya standing tall; the other
post was about ‘Sri Namagiri Thayar and Narasimhar’.
Inside the temple, Lord Anjaneya, the 18 feet tall ‘Viswarupa Anjaneya’ the
epitome of virtues – known for his knowledge, steadfast faith on Lord, doing
things even before ordained, the most trusted aide of Lord Rama stands
majestically. Hanuman is embodiment of discipline, devotion to His Master and
one known for giving boons to all bakthas.
His devotees would seldom be satisfied in seeing
him once; the more you see Him; the more you feel blessed and humbled by the
embodiment of all virtues. I had the great fortune of having darshan of Lord
Hanumar again in the evening also and what a great darshan it was…..
The Anjani Mainthan is known to be a great
Tapasvi [the one performing penance always] and known for his cool temparement,
unwavering dedication in the Service to Lord Rama. In the evening of 9th Feb 2013, it was ‘Santhana kappu’ ~ smearing of
sandalwood paste all voer his body, cooling him further and pleasing Him. Lord Anjaneya has a penchant for butter and
is anointed with ‘butter’ [vennai kappu]
and ‘sandalwood paste’. Vadai
malai and verrilai malai [garlands made of vadai and betel leave] also adorn
Him regularly.
There was also the purappadu in Thanga Ther
[Golden chariot] inside the Temple
Here are some photos of Lord Anjaneya in santhana kappu and purappadu
in Golden chariot.
Jai Anjaneya.
With regards – S.
