Lord Muruga in Triuttani |
|
Triuttani MururganKundruthoraadal
is a generic term which denotes many a hill having holy shrines of
Muruga. Tiruttani is prominent among them. Situated at a distance
of 13km from Arakonam, near Madras, Tiruttani abounds in scenic beauty.
In Tiruttanai, so it is said, Murugan is in a soothing and relaxed mood.

His ire over Soora and his kinsmen, whom He vanquished in battle, has
cooled down. His two divine consorts, Valli and Teyvayanai are with Him
at this temple. Tiruttani has a unique distinction since it is the favourite
hill of Muruga among all the hills in the world. The Lord Himself has
said so to Valli, as we learn from the Valliammai Tirumanam chapter
of the Kanda Puranam. There is a school of thought which professes
that Muruga preached the essence of Pranava to His Father Siva
in Tiruttani, which is also known as Santadri and Paripoornachalam.
Every year, on December 31, a large number of devotees congregate at Tiruttani.
They sing Tiruppugazh while climbing the steps leading to the temple
at the hill top and worship the Lord Tanigesa (Muruga).
