Thiruvilwamala | തിരുവില്വാമല | Latest temple travelogue 2020
Vilwadrinatha Temple in Thiruvilwamala village, Thrissur district of Kerala is dedicated to Lord Rama facing west and Lord Lakshmana, facing east in the chathurbahau prathima. The temple is on the top of a hill 100 ft above the sea level, along the side of Bharathappuzha. It is believed that the bottom of the temple is also a cave, and a golden vilwa tree exists there, and thus the place came to be known as ‘Thiruvilwamala’.
It is also believed that worshipping eastern sreekovil first results in salvation, and worshipping western sreekovil first results in material pleasure. There is no ‘namaskara mandapam’ (prostration hall) in front of both sreekovils. This is the only temple in Kerala where Lord Rama has a swayambhu image. It is around 5 ft tall, and made up of a rare kind of stone, called ‘Pathalanjana Sila’. On the top of the idol, Ananta lies as an umbrella. As there is a slight presence of Lord Shiva also in this idol, a lamp is always burnt on the back, thus called ‘Pinvilakku’. Sri Devi, Bhoo Devi, Goddess Parvathi, Lord Ganapathi, Lord Muruga and Lord Hanuman are also worshiped here.
Peruvanam Kunnath Kizhakkedath & Padinjaredath Bhattathiris are the Tantris (Chief priests) of east & west sreekovils respectively. Namboothiris from five illams are Melsanthis (Head priests).
Myth
Lord Parasurama, could not elope fully from the sin of killing Kshatriyas even after giving dana, the Kerala bhoomi and consecrating several temples, as the ghosts of the Kshatriyas assassinated by Parasurama appeared before him and asked him to give salvation. Thus he began to pray Lord Vishnu and heard a message, which stated that Lord Shiva has reached Vilwadri with his full family and guards and he should reach there immediately. Lord Shiva presented him with an idol of Lord Vishnu that he worshipped in Kailasa and asked to consecrate in a suitable place in a manner of getting darshan for the ghosts. The famous Punarjini Cave is here, in the “Bhoothanmala”.
Around the same time, a sage named Amalaka, the son of sage Kashyapa, conducted huge penance praising Lord Vishnu on the same spot. It is believed that Sage Amalaka got this name by eating only amla (gooseburry) fruit. When he was doing penance, the the demons tried attacking him and the power from Amalaka’s eyes turned them to a huge rock, called ‘Rakshasappara’. Sage Amalaka continued his penance and Lord Vishnu appeared before him with his consorts Sri Devi and Bhumi Devi, and Lord Ananta. As per the request of sage Amalaka, for the well-being of the people, the Lord turned himself into a swayambhu idol, with his consorts and Ananta.
The attack of demons still continued and they wanted to destroy the idols. One demon, as a Brahmin creeped into the temple premise. During the daytime, he remained like a normal Brahmin, but during night time, he changed his form. After that, he began to eat the cows donated to the temple and threw their bones northwards. Thus, the place came to be known as ‘moorikkunnu’ (moori means cattle and kunnu means hill in Malayalam). He also ate some sleeping Brahmins. People thought believed the place was haunted and finally, the 11th day (Ekadasi) in the dark fortnight of the month of Kumbham (February–March) arrived. In the midnight, after all poojas were completed and everybody slept, the asura entered the sreekovil by destroying the pillars. At that time, Lord Vishnu appeared from one of the pillar in the form of Narasimha, and killed the asura. Hearing the thundering sound made by the asura, all people woke up and seeing the ferocious form, many fainted, some prostrated on the ground and chanted the names of the Lord. At that time, sage Amalaka came there and pleased lord with his devotion and the Lord came back to his original form, and blessed his devotees. To prevent from further attacks, some power of Lord Shiva was also disposed in the idol, thus a concept of Lord Shankaranarayana also appeared. Even on special days associated with Lord Shiva, like Mahashivaratri, Pradosha vrata and Mondays, many people visit Thiruvilwamala Temple.
Saraswathikund, is the place where sage Amalaka is believed to have did his penance, is to the south of the fleet of steps on the west nada. The place got this name because there is a pit here with presence of Goddess Saraswati. Ramanchira, a small pond, is situated near the entrance to the west nada.
Outside the nalambalam, on the south-eastern side, is the shrine of Lord Hanuman. It is believed that after killing the asura who tried to destroy the temple, the remaining asuras came to Vilwadri, and began to attack the temple far away from it, as they could not approach the temple. Lord Rama sent Lord Hanuman to Vilwadri, and after preventing attacks, he resided there permanently for preventing further attacks. The idol is around 5 ft tall, and is in sitting posture.
