Srikanteshwara Temple or
Nanjundeshwara Temple is a famous Shiva Temple located in Karnataka at the bank of river  Kapila. Temple is also called Varanasi of South. Nanjunda means one who has consumed poison.

Story is  related to the Samudra Mathanam when Paramashiva had to consume halahala.

Parashurama worshipped Mahadeva here to relieve himself from the curse of Mathru Hatya. While clearing the place to do poojas Parashurama's  axe hit the Shivalingam and it began bleeding, that

mark is still visible even today. Thus
it is also believed that Parashurama did Shiva Prathishta here

Sthala Puranam says that, once there was a demon named Keshi who disturbed the people in the area, after  getting blessing from Brahma Deva  and Mahavishnu. Mahadeva appeared

here and killed demon Keshi and blessed this place as Papa Vinashini. Whoever praying to Srikanteshwara or Nanjundeshwara, after bathing in the  Kabini River will be relieved from all sins.

Beautiful Story of Guruvayurappan

Poonathanam Namboothiri was a great devotee of Guruvayurappan. One day Poonthanam was going to Guruvayur Kshetram. It was night time and eventhough Namboothiri was tired he continued to walk

Suddenly some thieves came and blocked his way. Poonthanam cried for Shri Krishna to help. Thieves snatched all valuables from him, but Namboothiri holding his Bhaghavatam book called Shri Krishna to help. That time a man came in a horse back and fought with thieves and protected

Namboothiri. Poonthanam thanked Krishna for helping him from danger and said to the man that "Shri Krishna has send you here and I don't know how to thank you".  The man smiled and told that he is Mangattachan, minister of  samoodhiris. Poonthanam once again thanked him and

gave his ring to Mangattachan as a token of thanks and continued his journey. He reached Guruvayur early morning for Nirmalya Darshan. Temple poojari came near him and told that Guruvayurappan came in his dreams and asked to hand over the ring to poonthanam.

When he opened Kshetra Nada poonthanam was surprised to see his ring on Guruvayurappan, which he gifted to Mangattachan. He understood that it was Guruvayurappan who came as Mangattachan to protect him. This is how Bhagwan treat his devotees.

Hare Krishna

Narayaneeyam Day : Tomorrow

Narayaneeyam Day is celebrated on 28th day of Malayalam month Vrishchikam. Narayaneeyam is the condensed form of Srimad Bhagavatam, written by Narayana Bhattatiri without leaving any essence of Bhagavatam & was submitted to Guruvayurappan on this day

Bhattatiri was a great devotee & scholar who lived in Guruvayur in Kerala. Narayana Bhattathiri had a Guru, Achyuta pisharadi, who had a severe attack of Rheumatism. Bhattathiri & with his prayers transferred guru's illness to him. Once, when Bhattathiri was unable to move, he

was carried to Guruvayur temple,
where he met Ezhuthachan, eminent  Malayalam  poet of the time. Ezhuthachan advised Bhattathiri to "begin the treatment with fish" Bhattathiri understood that he would be cured if he compose avatar of Vishnu starting with the fish, known as Matsya

Srimad Bhaghavatam which consists of 18000 sloka was condensed to 1034 slokas. He was 27 year old when Bhattadiri wrote Narayaneeyam. Thus on 100th day he was completely cured of illness. Particular Sloka of Narayaneeyam (Dasakam 8, Sloka 13) is a very powerful & also advised by

Sri Kanchi Maha Periyava for curing any illness. If one cannot recite Narayaneeyam completely are adviced to chant this sloka 21 times daily.

अस्मिन् परात्मन् ननु पाद्मकल्पे
त्वमित्थमुत्थापितपद्मयोनि: ।
अनन्तभूमा मम रोगराशिं
निरुन्धि वातालयवास विष्णो ॥

She said that her feet should be on his head. Shiva accepted her prayers. It is because of this Thumba flower is placed in the head of Shiva Linga.
