The rock cut temple with stone carvings is a splendid structure. It is built on a rocky terrain about 200 feet in height.… Koravans used to come to the temple for marriage of valli ,since valli devi belongs to koravan community.Lord Muruga and his consort Goddess Valli are the main deities. The name “Veli” was named from the malayalam word “veli” means marriage.It is the place where marriage of Murugan and Valli was done. The temple was built on a hill named ‘Velimalai’. ‘ Here is the famous Subrahmanya (Muruga ) Temple by the name of “Velimalai Kumaraswamy Temple’. Tiruttani is said to be the place where the Lord Subramanya married Valli – one of his two consorts.‘ ‘ Tiruttani constitutes one of the six Padai Veedu shrines of Skanda (Lord Subramanya), and it represents the site where Subramanya stayed after destroying the demon Surapadman. So it looks as though Swamymalai is not Thiruveragam.Īnd Thiruthani is not where Murugan married Valli. IT is in the Western Ghats, down deep south in agreement with ancient landmass and Lankan chronicles call Murugan as Kattrama and Valli the consort of Murugan.Īnd Thiruveragam, the old name seems to fit Velimalai in Kumaran Koil. I have found that Kumaran Kovil near Thackalay in Kanyakumari district seems to fit one of the major temples of Murugan.

So, going by Sangam definition I checked. Palani, Thiruthani, Swamymalai and Thiruparankundram are small hills. Murugan is described as the God of Mountains and adjoining lands called Kurinji in Tamil, குறிஞ்சி. When we look at the location of the six abodes of Murugan, ஆறுபடை வீடு, we find that none of them seem to fit perfectly with the landmass associated with Murugan. Now Murugan is considered to be the personification of Tamil language which was founded by Lord Shiva and Sage Agastya. Please check my articles on Lemuria, Mu, Rodina, Pangea, Sundaland. I also checked with ancient Tamil Land Lemuria and Mu. I have been checking on the special temples of Murugan from Tamil Classics, Skanda Purana, Silappadikaram, one of the Five Epics of Tamil from Sangam age and Thirumurugatrupadai by Nakkeerar, the earliest hymn on Murugan in Tamil. These six temples were called thus by Saint Arunagirinathar in the fourteenth century.

There are six major temples dedicated to Lord Subrahmanya, called Murugan in Tamil Nadu.

If you are looking for a masala entertainer, then stay away from here. Both Sameera and Divya are apt for the roles.No gimmicks in Cinematography and Editing.BGM and music is beautifully synchronised with the mood of the film. Performancewise Surya.His career best performance till date.Next comes Simran.Matured performance. In second half there are lot of incidents.(transition from a loser to a good individual.) Surya-Sameera reddy love track is minty cool.n Surya-Divya track is also OK.Then the Delhi episode.IMO itz a refreshing idea frm Goutham.(To overcome the loss of tragic event in Hero's life.)Someone may not agree that.After that the army scenes.surya really looks like an army man.And the final dialogue from simran is also touching.

Coming to the z an autobiographical one.so we cant blame the pace of the movie.Even though the narration is racy in first half. As a teenager, lover, loser, commando, aged man his performance is top class.His body language and voice modulation all are excellent.I can say.now he is in big league with the finest actors of our country. Vaaranam Aayiram-itz Surya all the way.He roxx to the core.What a versatility he gave to the different phases of his character.
