Yesterday, 4th February 2015; Jaya Varusha Masi Maham, Srirangam residents had a treat with two Divya Desa Perumals giving darshan on the banks of Kollidam: Anbil Sundararaja Perumal and Utthamarkoil Purushothama Perumal. Every year on Masi Maham day, Theerthavari takes place in Vada Thiru Cauvery (Kollidam )and devotees enjoy darshana saubhaghyam of the two. Generally, we visit a Divya Desam but here two Divya Desa Perumals visited us.
The other Perumal from Utthamarkoil is Purushothaman or Utthamar. Purushotthama means the best among men and Thayar is Poornavalli Thayar. This temple has sannidhis for Brahma and Sarasvathi and Shiva-Parvathi. Perumal removed the woes of Shiva and Brahma and showed that He was the Lord of Shiva and Brahma. This kshetram also known as Karambanur has the mangalasasanams of Thirumangai Azhwar. On this occasion in the morning Perumal Thirumanjanam was performed with satari Theerthavari at Vada Thiru cauvery. Lot of astikas near srirangam visited kollidam and had darshan of Uthamur Kovil Perumal .
The following are some of the photographs taken during the occasion…
