Arulmigu Dhenupureeswarar Temple*Thenupuriswarar Temple*Patteeswaram
Thenupuriswarar Temple is a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Shiva located in the holy village of Patteeswaram, Tamil Nadu, India. The temple is incarnated by the hymns of Tirugnana Sambandar and is classified as Paadal Petra Sthalam.
The temple of Patteeswarar presents a magnificent sight with five gopurams and three prakarams. It measures 650 feet (200 m) east to west and 295 feet (90 m) south to north. Pattisvara, the presiding form of Shiva manifests himself in the form of Linga, in the central mandapa of the first prakaram. Subsidiary deities like Sapthamatha, Mahalakshmi, Renuka, Navagraha, Surya, Chandra and Bhairava are housed in the inner parts of the temple. Ganesha is represented at three different places in three different forms - Anugai Pillayar, Madhavarna Pillayar and Swarna Vinayagar. In the northern part of the first prakaram, the consort goddess Gnanambigai (Parvati) lies in a separate shrine. A sculpture of Parvati doing penance is also found inside the temple.
Tirugnana Sambandar came to Thirusattimutram with Adiyars(saints) to worship at the Shiva temple. Then he started towards Patteeswaram. Since the Solar movement was towards the Mituna star causing oppressive heat waves, the child Sambandar could not manage. The Lord sent his bhoodaganas(servants) to decorate the streets with beautiful Muthu pandal(ceiling made of Pearl). The bhoodaganas prepared the pandal (ceiling) without Sambandar's knowledge. Sambandar was astonished by the reverence of God and enjoyed the shade offered. In order that Sambandar has a view of the Sanctum sanctorium from outside, Shiva ordered Nandi to shift position. Shiva is revered by the hymns of Sambandar.
The temple is located in a residential locality of Madambakkam near Tambaram. From Chennai, the temple is at a distance of 30.3 km and can be reached in an hour. Madambakkam was a residence to a lot of scholars and was known by the name Chaturvedimangalam during the olden days.
The history of this temple dates back to 957-970 CE. Kapila, a sage who was cursed to be born as a cow, is said to have attained liberation in this place. It is said that the sage offered prayers to Lord Shiva using his left hand, which resulted in a curse and he therefore took birth as a cow.Sage Kapila continued to pray to Lord Shiva by pouring milk on the buried Shiva Linga during his birth as a cow.
On seeing the cow wasting the milk, the cowherd punished the cow, but the same continued every single day until one day the cow, unable to bear the pain, began to run. The hoof of the cow hit the surface of the Lingam that was buried and it started to bleed.
On seeing this, the cowherd panicked and sought forgiveness from Lord Shiva. The Lord appeared and blessed sage Kapila and liberated him from his birth as a cow and also forgave the cowherd.
Apparently, the then ruler of the land dreamt of this occurrence and ordered his folks to unearth the Shiva Linga and called it Dhenupureeswarar.
“Dhenu” refers to cow and since sage Kapila attained liberation by the blessings of Lord Shiva, the Lord here is known by the name of Dhenupureeswarar.
The presiding deity is Lord Shiva, known as Dhenupureeswarar, who is a self-manifested one at this temple. His consort goddess Parvathi is known by the name of Dhenukambal. While the main idol faces the East, the idol of the goddess Parvathi is installed in a separate sanctum that faces South.
Like other temples in Tamil Nadu, the construct of the sanctum is semi-circular in nature, resembling the back of a sleeping elephant, unlike other Hindu shrines which are normally square or rectangular.
The temple of Dhenupureeswarar was built during the rule of Parantaka Chola II, father of Raja Raja Chola I, during whose reign the spectacular Brihadeeswarar Temple was also constructed in Thanjavur. A line about this temple has been recorded in one of the works of a 15th century Tamil poet named Arunagirinathar.
The temple has massive pillars and beautiful Mandapams. One of the pillars in the temple has the carvings of sage Kapila holding the Shiva Lingam in his left hand.
There is a huge tank in the temple premises that is always filled with fresh water.
Festivals And Fairs At The Dhenupureeswarar Temple The temple attracts a lot of devotees during Shivaratri and Navaratri; and the temple also follows a lot of other religious pujas like Pradosham and Panguni Uttiram.
How To Reach The Dhenupureeswarar Temple
The temple is at a distance of 3 km from the Tambaram-Valachery road and a lot of buses ply from this point to the temple.
Temple Timings
The temple is open to the devotees from 6 AM to 12:30 PM during the day and from 5 PM to 8:30 PM in the evenings.

Kumbakonam is one of the ancient temple towns and among the top tourist places in India, flanked by the two rivers Cauvery and Arasalar, in the Thanjavur district of Tamil Nadu. The name Kumbakonam means the Pot’s Corner. According to mythology, when the world was destructed due to the tsunami, Lord Brahma asked Lord Shiva, from where he can restart creation. He suggested him to make a magic pot with the sand collected from various sacred places and float it in the floodwater. Kumbakonam is the place where the pot stopped and then Lord Shiva shot an arrow, which led to the spilling of some nectar on this place, and thus life was revived on the earth.
Once ruled by kings, Kumbakonam rose to be a prominent city between the 7th and 9th centuries AD. The town reached the zenith of its prosperity during the British Raj and was named as Cambridge of South for the being the prominent center of European education and Hindu culture.

This 72 feet high temple was established in the 16th century. The deity here is called Kasi Viswanathar and his wife as Visalakshi. There are other shrines as well. As per the Legend, Lord Rama and Lakshmana prayed here to Lord Shiva and got a blessing to slay Ravana. You will also find 9 rivers known as Nava Kannigas, who prayed to Lord Shiva at Varanasi to absolve them of sins washed away by bathers. The Lord asked them to take bath in Mahamaham tank and pray to Lord Adi Kumbeshwara.
Lord Vishnu is worshipped as Uppiliappan and his consort Lakshmi as Bhoomidevi. You can see the 8 feet tall idol of the Lord with Bhoomidevi on the right and Markandeya Maharishi on the left.

பண்டைய சோழ தலைநகர பெருமாள் கோவிலின் இன்றைய அவல நிலை | Gopinatha Perumal Pazhaiyarai
Gopinatha Perumal temple is at Pazhaiyarai(Near Patteeswaram).
Pazhayarai or Pazhaiyarai was an ancient capital of the medieval Chola dynasty in Tamil Nadu. Presently it is located in Kumbakonam Taluk of Thanjavur District of Tamilnadu. Today there are a number of villages within the area of historic Pazhaiyarai. It is located at a distance of 4.2 kms from Darasuram. This town also has various villages like the Nandipura Vinnagaram, Patteeswaram.
Gopinatha Perumal temple is a huge temple that comes first in the route from Patteeswaram to Pazhayarai. Negligence of the first order has made this shrine pathetic. The Temple is in complete ruins. The sanctum is kept closed and people could not walk around freely due to the presence of vegetable growth. Urgent renovation is required to keep this temple from complete destruction.

கோபிநாத பெருமாள் கோவில் பழையாறை(பட்டீஸ்வரம் அருகே):
பழையாறை அல்லது பழையாறு சோழர்களின் 5 தலைநகரங்களின் ஒன்றாகும். சோழர்கள் பல்லவர்களுக்கு அடங்கி இருந்த காலங்களில் வசித்த ஊரான பழையாறை பின்நாளில் சோழர்கள் தலை எடுத்தபின் அவர்களின் 2 வது தலைநகராக மாறியது.
கும்பகோணத்திற்கு தென்மேற்கே பட்டீஸ்வரத்திற்கு அண்மையில் ஆமைந்த கோபிநாத விண்ணகரம் என்னும் ஸ்ரீ கோகிநாத திருக்கோயிலில் ஸ்ரீமன் நாராயணன் அர்ச்சாவதாரம் கொண்டு ஸ்ரீசத்யபாமா ஸ்ரீருக்மணி சமேத ஸ்ரீகோபிநாத பெருமாளாக இருந்து, சேவை சாதித்து அருளுகின்றார். ஸ்ரீமன் நாராயணன் இச்க்ஷேத்திரத்தில் அர்ஜுனனுக்கு ஸ்ரீகிருஷ்ணராகவும், அனுமனுக்கு ராமனாகவும் காட்சியளித்தார், வீமனுக்கு அனுமான் விஸ்வரூபம் காட்டி அருளியதும், அனுமனுக்கு ஸ்ரீமன் நாராயணனே எழுந்தருளி காட்சி கொடுத்து அருளியதும் இச்க்ஷேத்திரத்தின் மகிமையாகும்.
தென்னகதுவாரகை என்றும் கோவிந்த விண்ணகரம் என்றும் கோபிநாத விண்ணகரம் என்றும் அழைக்கப்படுகிறது. வைகுந்தத்தைப் போன்றே ஏழுதிருவாயில்களை உடையதாய் மிகப்பெரிய தேர்மண்டபம் பெற்றிருந்து சிறந்து விளங்கிய இச்க்ஷேத்திரம் காலப்பெருவௌளத்தாலும் நம்முடைய அறியாமையாலும் முற்றிலும் சிதைந்து கற்குவியலாகி அவற்றில் பெரும்பான்மையும் காணாமல் போய்விட்டன.
எளிவந்தபிரானாய் பெருமான் வீற்றிருப்பதால் அவரது திருமேனியில் எலிகளும் அணில்களும் ஓடி விளையடுகின்றன. வவ்வால்களின் எச்சங்களையே திருமஞ்சன திரவியங்களாகக் கொண்டுள்ளார். உலகினைப் படைத்து காத்து புறந்தருளும் பரம்பொருளுக்கு இன்று பெயரளவில் ஒருகாலபூஜையே நடைபெற்று வருகிறது. நெஞ்சை நெகிழச் செய்யும் இது போன்ற திருக்கோயில்களில் கைங்கர்யம் செய்வது நமது கடமை.

Kumbakonam Sri.Ramar Temple to Govindhapuram Sri. Bodhendrar Athistanam.[With Pictures]
கும்பகோணம் இராமர் கோயில் முதல் கோவிந்தபுரம் ஸ்ரீ போதேந்திரர் அதிஷ்டானம் வரை. [ஸ்ரீ மகிஷாசுர மர்தினி பாடலுடன்.]
On 22-4-2012, I went on a pilgrimage to have Dharsan of Temples from Kumbakonam Sri.Ramar Temple to Govindhapuram. First I have seen Sri. Ramar Temple and then Thiruvalanchuli Vinayakar temple,Pattesswaram Durgai Amman temple,Kalabairavar temple,Thirubhuvanam Siva temple,Pandaripuram SriVittal Rukmani temple and then Kanchi 59th peetathipathi Jagath Guru Sri Bodhendra Saraswathi Swamigal Athistanam at Govindapuram. I have published those divinely temples pictures thro You Tube'.
Patteeswaram is situated just 8 kms from Kumbakonam. Sri Durgai shrine is very popular here.Originally Patteeswaram is known for the Shiva Temple called Sri Dhenupureeswarar temple located here. Goddess is Gnanambikai.
Patteeswaram got its name as, Patti, daughter (calf) of sacred cow Kamadhenu worshipped here. According to legend, Parasakthi wanted to perform Thapas and was trying to locate a peaceful place. She found this place and started her Thapas.
Knowing this, Kamadhenu, sent her daughter to be of help to Parasakthi during the Thapas. Lord Shiva, pleased with the Devi's Thapas gave Dharshan to her here and assumed the name, Gabardeeswarar.
On seeing this, Patti who was helping Devi for her Thapas, also installed a Shiva Linga and started worshipping Lord Shiva here. Lord Shiva was pleased with her worship and blessed Patti here and hence the place got named after Patti as Patteeswaram.
Once, Thirugnaana Sambandar came walking down to Patteeswaram to have the dharshan of Lord Shiva. As it was hot summer, he was finding it difficult with scorching heat. Lord Shiva, realizing Sambandar's pain, ordered his Bhoodha Ganas to hold a Muthu Pandhal (Umbrella woven with pearls) along the way to the temple, so that Sambandar can walk in the shadow.
Also Lord Shiva was too eager to see Sambandar. He was looking at the way to the temple from his Sanctum. As Nandhi was sitting in front of the Lord, he couldn't view properly. And Lord Shiva ordered Nandhi to move a bit, so that his view is not obstructed and Nandhi obeyed. Sambandar with overwhelming joy, sung 10 hymns on Lord Shiva here. Even today, one can see Nandhi facing a bit away from the Lord.[See the picture}
Sri Durga (also called Vishnu Durga) in this temple has been installed by Cholas. Sri Lord Rama has worshipped Sri Durga Devi here before moving towards Sri Lanka for his war against Ravana. Pictures of Sri Ramar temple to Govindhapuram Athistanam can be seen from You Tube Video.
