Sri Punnainallur Mariamman



Sri Mariamman, Punnianallur, near Tanjavur, TN.

A shri chakram was consecrated by the Brahma Gnani Sri Sadhasiva Brahmendral in this temple .

Devi's saanidyam has manifested in the "putru" (ant - hill) and her murthy is made of earth from that ant-hill.

She restored the lost vision of a daughter of Thulajendra Maharaja, a Maratha king Who was ruling Tanjavur at that time.

Much later, she took as her ardent devotee, a British officer who was in charge of the town.

Jai Ma!!

    Dear one Should I reach out and playfully ruffle your hair as mothers all over the world   do ? …but for now ,it's enough for me to inwardly raise my hands to transfer to  you, the prayers and blessings that flow from the divine through me, (as it does through each one of us) towards you.   It's easy to see the blessings you already have, though they may not be evident to the world right now.  I bow to the good people who made you who you are and all those who supported you all along.   You haven't given up on your journey.   I am insanely proud of you.    In fact, you have started from right where you had to stop long ago...   May the blue -hued ,lotus- eyed Lord, another beautiful form of the infinite that I adore, protect you and provide for  you all that you need in this journey.    May the infinite, in whatever way you choose to adore him, (with or without a form/manifest /unmanifest) , keep you safe and fill your heart with bliss as you enjoy the journey as well.

Mohana Narasimha and Chenchu Lakshmi Thayar

I made the above sketch using Color pencils and felt pens. Took a few hours to complete. Painting may have taken days and I couldn't wait to complete the picture, so there. Mohana Narasimha and Chenchu Lakshmi Thayar After the vatham of Hiranyakashipu, Sri Narasimha, in his terrible ugra rupa, roamed around the forests in Nallamalla region, AP. Ma Sri Lakshmi took the form of a vanvasi girl belonging to the Chenchu tribe in AP and pacified his anger.  He took a Shanta swarupa and has been gracing his devotees in the form of Mohana Narasimha ever since.  I took the liberty to imagine the following conversation between the divine couple.  " Devi, you seem to be in deep thought. Is it about our children again?" "  Swami, you already know they are all I think about all the time. I  know you too think of our children on Earth all the time!" " Devi, is there anything I can hide from you? You reside in my heart. Like this flower mala th

Prakriti and Eternal Balance

Modern women and men are bombarded every day with subtle / unsubtle messages about why women are special and why they need to treated in a special way. It’s true that women are indeed special but not for the reasons the liberals of this world list out. “You can do anything a man can do!” is the constant mantra that’s being thrown at women all the time. Let’s face it.  This isn’t true .  Men and women have different skillsets for the reason that they are meant to complement each other. Any person with real leadership skills can tell you that great teams are built with people having diverse skillsets. Efficient, nurturing preschool teachers are mostly women. They may be grossly under paid, but are we going to demean their great service to humanity? Hard working workers of emergency/rescue services/city cleaning services are mostly men. Their service to humanity goes unsung. Where would our modern homes be without the work skills of ordinary plumbers? Ex
