Vadapalani Murugan Temple Marriage: Procedure, Cost, and Booking
Late 19th-century construction of the Vadapalani temple Annasamy Naicker, a devout follower who, with faith in the Lord’s powers, constructed a small thatched house, installed a painted portrait of Lord Murugan and started daily devotion of it. According to the legend, Annasamy Naicker suffered persistent stomach pain for which he was unable to get relief. Despite very little to no transportation options from Thiruthani, Thiruporur braving the rains, the cyclones and criminals on the route, he journeyed far and wide, visiting revered temples of Lord Muruga. One day a Sadhu showed up in Annasamy Naicker’s dreams and asked why you look for Murugan all over when he is there in your house. He started working, came home, told his family the tale, and started fervently praying the Lord. His daily Pooja schedule thereafter carried on twice a day in his very house. Annasamy Naicker offered his tongue at the Thiruthani temple one day on the word of a Palani Sadhu he met. That brought his illnesses to an end.
One day he followed his dream excursion to the Southern Pazhaniyathra, returning after his Darshan of the Dandayuthapani, and as he descended the steps a lovely painting of Lord Murugan caught his eyes. He found it to be hypnotic. He brought it back to Chennai since he thought it to be a priceless item. He set it in his house and covered it with a thatched roof. He regarded it the very holy aboard the Palani and begged his family to move elsewhere. Using his Arul Vaakku during pooja, he began helping people to solve their difficulties. He also goes as Pavadam since he took the Pavadam after offering his tongue to Lord Muruga.
