Legend of Koneri Rajapuram
Faith can move mountains , they say. Faith can cure too . Nature has endowed the earth with a variety of herbs and shrubs that cure ailments. Ayurveda gives you a whole range of natural medicines.When things go beyond treatment by doctors and medicines, people send vehement appeals to the Almighty to cure them. Promises are made relating to various things they would offer if they are cured, or physical sevas, like the Angapradakshanams, Thulabharams ( weighing oneself against Butter, Bananas, Sesame seeds etc.), to mention a few .
In a remote village near Kumbakonam ( twenty eight km. from the city, on the Kumbakonam- Karaikal Road ) there is a God whose miracle healings, I have personally witnessed and experienced.
The village Konerirajapuram is a quiet village. Drive along green fields and coconut groves , you reach the Temple of Umamaheswara with His consort Dehasundari ( Angavalanaayaki in Tamil ). But the Temple is more known for the Swayambhu Nataraja of metal, about five and a half feet high.
HISTORY
We have to travel to the time of a Chozha King to know about the origin of the Nataraja. The king wanted a Nataraja made out of Panchaloha ( five metals ) and he described the form to the Sthapathi. The sthapathy was an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva and was very happy with the King’s order.He set to work , but three casts of Nataraja were rejected by the King, who gave an ultimatum to the sculptor .Not delivering goods before the stipulated time would see him out of the Chozha Desa or have his head chopped.
The Sculptor was very depressed. He set to work. He had just a day more to present his work and he was still at work. He had a pot full of molten metal and was wondering whether to start the casting .He was praying to the Lord to make his creation appealing to the King.
An old man and his wife came near him and asked for some water to quench their thirst. The Sculptor in no mood for hospitality, told the Old Couple “ There’s no water. If you want, drink this molten metal” and was stunned and horrified to see the Old Man taking the pot and drinking the contents and giving a little to His wife too.
Slowly, in their place there emerged two Vigrahams, one of a majestic, large Nataraja and by His side a very beautiful Sivakami.
The King walked in at that time and was extremely happy to see the icons. The Sculptor was shivering with devotion at the Lord’s magnanimity and related the episode and denied having made the Vigrahams.
The King was furious and called his tale a lie and raised his sword , which struck the lifted right foot of the Deity. Blood spurted out and splashed on the King who developed leprosy. The Lord then appeared to all present there as Vrishabharoodar and told the King “ I am here in the form of Lingam as Vaidyanatha . Offer prayers to me and perform abhisheka and you will be cured.” He did. And he was cured.
And so are many, today, who are being cured if they repose full faith in him.
Last year I developed End Stage 5 kidney disease. I was told I needed a kidney transplant and dialysis 3 x a week or I would die within a month without it. I am a student of Paramahansa Yogananda and have studied, practiced, and continue to practice Kriya Yoga now for over 40 years.
ReplyDeleteMuch to the doctors surprise, my kidneys began working again and it's now been over 6 months since my last dialysis treatment. I am in better health than I've been in years! Thank you Gurudeva, and Praises to Jesus and God.
I saw this temple when I do YHouse Shifting in Trivandrum, this temple location is near and it is very beautiful and peaceful.
