There are several noblest ideals are exposed in every action of Lord Shiva. This occasions links with Divine Moon (Chandra). The pleasant moon we see on the sky.

The story of Chandra is very interesting one. Chandra had twenty seven wives. His father-in-law who was the father of twenty seven girls cursed Chandra to loose all his strength and personality. The beauty of Chandra was such that attracted to marry all the twenty seven girls. The cause for the curse was that Chandra was in more love with ‘Rogini’ one among twenty seven. The other girls reported the matter to their father who then cursed Chandra to ruin.

Chandra prayed Lord Shiva who gave asylum to Chandra by giving place on his head. The curse will affect Chandra to loose all his brightness with in fourteen days. By the boon of Lord Shiva, Chandra will be gaining the brightness by another fourteen days. That is why we see the waxing moon an vanning moon with in twenty eight days. The twenty seven girls are twenty seven stars in Zodiac. Chandra to live one day in one star and move for next. Thus the justice maimed to live with all twenty seven girls in a cycle of month. The scientific explanation were of no use in those old ages and that the saints have told the subject in a way of a story.

All people who suffer with vibration and oscillation in taking decisions should pray Lord Chandra Sekara Moorthy.

Aalingana gives the meaning of embracing on the occasions of welcoming friends, guests and also when they depart. This traditional act is observed as mark of respect and gratitude. This connects to love and affection also.

Chandra Sekara Moorthy with his all grace and deep love appears here, with his sweet heart Uma Devi. The devotees are blessed with comprehensive possession of boons from this divinely appearance.

When we worship Chandra Sekara, our needs such as peaceful life with wife and family, will be the awards of prayers.

There is another incidence to be referred to the moon. The father in law of Moon. Punished Chandra (Name of moon) and that all his charm and strength began to reduce. Chandra prayed Lord Shiva and got the asylum on the head of Lord Shiva. So, in a month the moon will be diminishing for 14 days and the boon of Lord Shiva will be giving power to regain the strength in another 14 days. That is why the waxing and Vanning of moon occur in Zodiac. People who are in need of health, should pray Lord Shiva for an early recovery to continue a happy life.

Kaalai is “Nanthi” (Bull). Lord Shiva’s mount Nanthi Deva is a divine with a status to be worshiped. In all Shiva temples, the bull will be there in the entrance straight before ‘Karphagraha’ which describes the Sanctum sanatorium of Lord Shiva who is occupying the centralized chambers of temple.

Lord is busy and on duty to attend his routine. The idol describes the duty consciousness. The devotees are given lessons of their duties and activities. Time is precious and no one should discard it. These doctrines are merged in this appearance.

The youngsters, workers, job oriented persons and the investors are liable to follow their duties who expect their rewards on their duties of serving and earning. All the busy people who expect their gains on their service should worship this idol of Kaalai Vahana Moorthy and get His boons. The scene we find here is on journey. So, the people engaged in travel and transportation, should also to worship the Lord Kaalai Vahana Moorthy, with devotion.

“Rishab Dev” is another name to Lord with same meaning of Lord Shiva and Bull. The religions other than Hindu is also give more prominence to this idol all over the universe.

This is one of the dancing states of Lord Shiva. At the time of the creation of this universe, Lord Brahma created the creatures and all kind of beings on this universe. Then the Lord Brahma wanted Lord Shiva to give the phonetics, languages and their sounds. Then He started his dance. This is called as “cosmic dance”. He is having four hands. The first right hand is the blessing hand. The second right hand is adorned with the small musical drum which is called as “damarukam” or “udukkai”. The second left is perpendicular to the first right hand with the palm facing his left foot. He stand on one leg and lift the other leg with magnificent appearance. Those who pray Lord Shiva will the blessed with happiness. This posture indicates Lord Shiva is influencing the time, earth sky and space.

Just imagine, where a stage for her dance could be arranged. All over the shy and space the marvelous way of dances (Thandavam) He perform and create the sound, music, languages and ragas (tunes).

This image is mainly for proper worship to the people of education and arts.

Sandhyaa is the time to conclude day and to begin the night. This scene will be more attractive and meaningful. Mankind will start working on fields in the early morning and attend till to the dusk. They will do their job. Even for the animals, cattle’s and birds the system of living begin in the morning and end in the evening. Lord Shiva was the authority for the phenomena of sounds. The time referred here is neither day nor night. He commenced his sandhyaa thandavam (Dance) with the majestic movements, which led for the formation of languages, Rhythm and Music. His face was with the grace and magnanimity. The time was also very pleasant for the rhythm. The Lord’s exposures of signs assigned a great lot of meaning and words. Thus the earth had languages and grammars.

The devotees, very specifically show interest in education, art and inventions should do homage to Lord Sandhya Thandava Moorthy. Our temple is getting installed with this deity.

When evening comes, the time to take rest begins. In common the activities of going to theatre, films and music programmers are the usual routines of people. This time is engaged for artists. So, the musicians dancers and the people who are engaged in recreations should show much devotion to this Lord.

The story of river Ganges relates to Lord Shiva and Ganga Devi. In divine land, the Goddess Ganga Devi in the form of Ganga River was flowing.

Once the earth was facing intolerable drought. People were dieing without water. Here the idol is named as Neermali. The meaning of Neer is water. Bhagirtha by virtue of his penitential process prayed Lord Shiva to save the universe.

Lord Shiva was pleased with penance of Bhagiatha and allowed Ganga Devi to flow on the earth. Lord Shiva has given asylum to moon and Ganga Devi. Both of them were accommodated on the head of Lord.

This facet is presenting the Goddess Uma Devi and Ganga Devi. For the welfare of earth, people and all living beings Lord bestowed the River Ganga to earth. Shrungara gives a nature of sweetness in mood. Lord Shiva is in a such situation with Goddess Uma Devi

When any kind of need or any danger happens the saviour is Lord Shiva. All such graceful doings he do for the devotees and manhood. Continuous prayers will be giving fruitful results. Worshiping “Neermali Veniya Morthy” any specific needs will be materialized. Several people do not have a good family life, love, affection and passion. Lord Shiva teaches here to have the married life. That is one of the need in a stage of adult. Some person have desire to be either as bachelor or virgin and even to follow as saints. They can act according to the will of necessity and those who want to settle in married life lord Shiva grant His boon.

We have a peculiar presence of Lord in this idol. When the reformation of world took place Lord Shiva guided much to Lord Brahma to create sounds phonetics and rhymes through his dances. Dances with Navarasa Bhawas which will give nine kinds of sensations like anger, fear, boldness and singara. Singara gives the temptations and desire. The mankind should grow and the birth should occur till to the end of yuga. The earth has got certain age until faces the destruction. Enjoyment of sensuous pleasure is the nature. Mankind needs this as per basic theme of continuous generations. When the birth is looked after Lord Brahma, growth is cared by Lord Vishnu and the death is attended by Lord Shiva and that this routine continues.

Here Lord teaches this theme with Goddess Uma Devi. He is with the gesture of love that is one among nine sensations. Nothing to hide he teaches the essentiality of a family person.

The youngsters who are at the age of marriage, it is the duty of parents to arrange marriage and permit the couple to live happily.

On this norms, the adults who are with desire to get married with a proper companion, they should worship Lord Singara Neermali Veniyan who will bless the devotees a happy wedded life.

Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma are the unity and trinity to do the routine of needs of worlds, stars and planets.

Lord shiva is sharing his part for destruction. In mythology, the notes are seen that two Damon kings were living with great powers. By the virtue of their severe penance they received the boons to hold metallic forts. The biggest in shape with big area. In such types there were three in numbers. Those forts were capable of flying upon an area and destroy the devotees. They were mercilessly doing the atrocities to the human beings. All the sages and devotees joined together and prayed for the help of Lord Shiva. Lord shiva with his tremendous powers fought with the demons and destroyed them. All the three forts were also demolished.

So, the devotees felt happy and continued their duties with out fear. For mankind, it is the grace of Lord Shiva, who bless one and all for a comfortable living. Those who are fearing to face big enemies and big powers are the persons to be examined here. First the profession and job circles will be facing the unjust action from the higher level. In family one could behave with all the sincerity, even than treated severely. All such sufferers should pray “THRIPURA ATHAKA MOORTHY” who will bless the devotee and rescue from trouble.

In this facet, we are able to see the wedding of Lord Shiva and Goddess Umadevi.

In a very sacred place near Mayuram in Tamil Nadu, India & notable village called Thirumananjeri attracts so many devotees even from foreign countries.

Long back Goddess umadevi and Lord Shiva were discussing about the earthly affairs. During the course of conversation, the subject of their marriage also intervened.

Goddess umadevi, was submitting her desire to look the event of their wedding again and prayed the Lord Shiva. As per the will of His Wife, He blessed such reoccurance at Thirumananjeri. “Gokilambal” was an another name of Goddess Parvathi. So the wedding of “Gokilambal-Sundara Moorthy” took place at Thirumanajeri.

As for as the devotees concerned, it is firm belief and real happenings that those who are at the age for marriage, they should pray the “Gokilambal Kalyana Sundara Moorthy” for their fulfillment of desires for marriage.

All castes and people from foreign land come here and await for the boon for their life mates.

Those who are married already also also worship Lord Shiva for their happiness in life. Marriage settlement is the main topic here. Even after the separations such as divorce and in want of marriage again also, pay homage to the Deities and get their lives settled peacefully

The devotees of Lord Shiva were of different natures. Once the Brigu Rishi came to Shivaloga and waiting for the Dharsan of “Lord Shiva”. The God was not alone. He was with His wife Goddess Uma Devi. The Rishi after waiting for long time could not be able to offer worship Lord Shiva.

Several people, they know only one but it is a firm thing. They do not know anything else. Giving importance to other is also not their habit. Being the deserving devotee to Lord Shiva, the Rishi changed himself as ‘Vandu’ (a insect like Bee) and flew around the head of the Lord shiva and worshipped. Goddess Uma Devi got angry and the entire blood and flesh of the Rishi was taken away as punishment of Uma Devi. The theory is this that in every one’s body Lord Shiva is in the form of bone, and the other like flesh and blood are of Uma Devi.

Knowing the pitiable state of Rishi, Lord Shiva gave him shelter with a stick and the peacock-feather. Being husband and wife Lord shiva and Goddess Parvathi merged in one form sharing right half to be of the Lord and the left half to be of Uma Devi. So, no one could separate them.

No one should ask any boon with out the help of Goddess Uma Devi. All devotees should pray Lord Shiva in this facet of UMAI YORU BAGA MOORTHY.

This exposes a dogma, which could never separate Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi. It is ascertained. So, the whole theory deepens the solidarity of SHAKTHI and SHIVA IN ONE FORM. That is the truth imposed in every heart of the devotees.

In several cases, the under officials, may not be obliging with the justful needs but one can deal with head of the department directly. Even if we get sanction, the under officials can create delay or spoil the whole thing. In such a calamity, the prayer to UMAI ORU BAGA MOORTHY will help them to get success.

Once upon a time there lived a demon called “GAJA ASURA”. The Demon was lawless. He was cruel to mankind and divines. So they were not at all treated well for the discipline, honesty and justice. The Gaja Asura in a form of Elephant entered all of sudden in the ‘Yagna Shala’ (The Sacred place to perform rituals before the fire-god). The atrocities like spoiling the Yagna as well as killing the devotees of Lord Shiva, were continued by him.

Lord Shiva, the savior with His great weapon “TRISHOOLAM” appeared at the spot and killed the Demon Gaja Asura after a big war. This incidence is defined in the idol which is presenting the victory of Lord Shiva who is holding the tusk of the elephant on the hand. The head of Elephant is lying at his feet.

YAANAI URTIHA MOORTHY is the name for Lord Shiva since he killed GAJA ASURA. Devotees, with several debacle, hindrances and hurdles in their noble tasks, should get success. So, this facet Yaanai Uritha Moorthy when prayed will relieve all kinds of troubles and give a successful life.

A Venomous arrow with snakehead called ‘Pasupathasthram’. This weapon latter helped Arjuna in Maha Barartha -war with Duriyothana who as per word, should hand over the country to Pandavas after the lapse of fourteen years. The war took place since they did not keep up the promise. Finally Pandavas won and secured back their country. In this idol Arjuna being the devotee praying Lord Shiva. He was granted with the weapon “Pasupathasthram”.

On noble cause, when we pray the Lord, he grants the weapon like Pasupatha. So, the people who are cheated by enemies and those who want justice to get back their lost properties they should worship Pasupahta Moorthy. Many people when they take the loan, the creditors will fix abnormal interest and get signature of debtor for the double value. But the money will be only half the time. So the debtor will be suffering a lot and they will loose the property also. Some greedy persons will do unjust to a noble man who will be facing lot of trouble. Such kind of sufferer should worship Lord Shiva in the facet of “Pasupatha Moorthy”.

Kankaalam gives the meaning skeleton. In ancient period sages and saints in Kailash survived in that most cold places only with the firm strength of bones. It will be a boon for devotees to visit the temple of holy places like Rishikesh, Badrinath and GethariNath. Long time back Rishi "Thathishi" gave all his bones and skeleton to divine Indhra Deva who made his "Vajrayutham" out of the bones (Divine Indra’s weapon). We have one more theme for reference. Lord Shiva is the authority for destruction also. He is in cremation ground the dead bodies will be burning in fire. The ground will be with bones scattered here and there. To possess a skeleton in hand is nothing unusual to Him.

In the facet of Kankala Moorthy Lord Shiva has given asylum to his devotee’s skeleton, which is covered with feather of peacock.

The first right hand and left hand are feeding grass to the pet animal Deer.

Worshipping the Lord Shiva all devotees will be blessed with good health and powerful structure and appearance.

This kind of practice will guide every one, who is having the gratitude towards the philosophy. To attain an eternal status after the old age this facet will teach different lessons on meditation every day. The peace seekers, spiritual followers, and those who need knowledge should give great homage to the Lord Shiva.

A Poem in sanskrit defines
"SWAYAM MAHESHA SWASURO NAGESHA SAKA DHANESAHA SUTHO GANESHA THAVAAPI BIKSHADHANA SEVA SAMBO BAREE YASI KEVALAM EASWARA KHAHA".

Once, long back, there held a argument between the Rishis and their wives. Rishis were on firm faith on meditation and declared that the meditation was the best one. But the wives of Rishis and Brahmins strongly objected and expressed that it was chastity that alone could prove best among all. The chastity could be maintained with the base of discipline where one could find the neatness and chastity and that place would be full of Godliness. The chastity explained further, one should live with pure love with only one person as a husband or wife till to the end of life.

When the argument was going endless, there a “young beautiful man" appeared with all the charming. He was having a "Thiruvodu" a earthen vessel to collect food. All the wives of Brahmins and Rishis were attracted by his beauty and lost their chastity on the act of admiring a stranger. Purity in heart was spoiled since the thought of love with the stranger considered sinful.

The Brahmins and Rishis by virtue of their rituals, wanted to destroy the young man. They sent a venomous serpent to kill him. But the serpent did not do any harm to the young man who took the snake and garlanded himself on his neck. The young man was Lord Shiva the Almighty who taught the lessons to the Rishis and their wives. All of them fell at the feet of Lord Shiva and got the blessings. The meditation is the best for ever.

This facet is called "BIKSHADHANA MOORTHY”. Lord came as a man for Biksha (food) and gave the blessings to his devotees.

There prevailed a doubt among the devotees of Lord Shiva and the devotees of Lord Maha Vishnu, on the universe, the heaven and pathala-loga and everywhere. The doubt was relating to the leadership questioning the superiority between Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu. The sages then went to Lord Shiva and wanted to have their doubt cleared.

The beautiful sayings of Lord Shiva "SHIVASYA HRUDHAYAM VISHNU-VISHNOSCHA HRUDHAYAM SHIVA" this explains well that whom they think as Shiva is Vishnu and whom they believe as VISHNU is SHIVA. Two imperial powers that exist in unity. The Thathva is also same “Hari and Shiva are in one” looking to the affairs of universe and the zodiac, there occur the lot of problems and the remedies in which the two Deities are always involved for the welfare of earth, people, and divines.

This is the net result whenever the deities do either destructions or constructions either individually or jointly. The joint-responsibility safe guards mankind and all the worlds. This is the theory we can observe in all the happenings.

So Lord Shiva is honored as SANKARA NARAYANA. There is a sacred place so called as "SANKARAN KOVIL" in TAMILNADU. When we worship the facet Sankaranaryana the people can get all the blessings of Lord Shiva and Lord Vishnu and get fulfillment of needs and boons. All persons do the joint ventures, partnership dealings, and combined inventions, will have to devote time to worship Lord “Sankaranarayana Moorthy”.

"Anugraha paripalana" of Lord Shiva is endless. Lord is always helping to those who request Him their needs of lively hood. One time, the servant of Lord Shiva "Chandesa" worshipped the Lord and wanted to have His blessings. A servant who is along with Almighty always. That honour and prestige are considered to be the greatest to Chandesa and even then he wished the blessings of Lord Shiva.

The God, pleased to find Chandesa’s desire and devotion. He took His garland and Lord himself tied the same on the head of Chandesa. This act of benevolence is giving great astonishment to Chandesa.

Those who are awaiting to get their degrees in universities should have the habit to worship CHANDESA ANUGRAHA MOORTHY. The other people who need promotion and development in their profession will also be benefited. So many persons do not have money-power. They will be having the talent and ability. There are statusqua and ranks in society. In this mixed situations to achieve the aims we have to do the proper homage to Lord Shiva in the facet of “Chandesa Anugraha Moorthy”.

The title gives a pleasant atmosphere with the musical instrument "Veena". This is giving a relation to art. So, Lord Shiva is engaged in music. The story is this that Rishis Sanaka, Sananthara, Sanaactara, and Sanathkumara wanted to learn the music described in Sama vedha. They met Lord Shiva and expressed their desires. Lord Shiva asked them to be seated under a banyan tree. Lord Shiva sat in an meditating pose and taught them music. First thing He taught was silence; His first right hand and the first left hand were holding a Veena. Second left hand is holding a burning ball to give light. Knowledge is light. Ignorance is darkness. The burning ball is the symbol of knowledge “Veena Dhakshina Moorthy is the deity best for the students and teachers. Teachers by worshipping Lord Shiva will be blessed with good teaching capacity. Now a days not only the education is to be credited, all the arts, fine arts, handicraft and manufacturing of small products are all meritted. Lord Veena Dhakshina Moorthy will favour all of the artists, singers, dancers, television people, and computer persons and students. Praying Him will be blessed with best knowledge.

This idol of Lord Shiva varies from Bikshatana Moorthy and presents a new appearance. A dog is along with Him and this appearance is naked. The much regarded God, one among the trinity has no desire even to wear dress. The great meaning behind this will be compared with the vast blue sky. In the nighttime we can see the moon. Lord Shiva is called as Chandra Sekara. Lord has given asylum to the divine moon. All these importance permit to get obliged with the facet that Lord Shiva is in the form of sky & space. This is one of His five forms. Who can stich a dress for the sky?

We can understand the simplicity of the Lord here. He is attached to no desire, no passion but existed everywhere. His kindness and mercy are always for the welfare of human beings. Knowing this secret very many people should worship all the forms of Bhairava Moorthy. Big officials, investors, students, bachelors, virgins, teachers, and judicial people worship Lord Bhairava and maintain their status and prestige.

It is strange to see that Lord Shiva have happened to fight with divine ‘Yama’. When the destruction of the beings are in the schedule of Lord Shiva, Yama is the representative to attend it.

But one occasion, which was to be faced seriously by Lord Shiva. His devotee Markendeya was to be permitted to live on world upto sixteen years only. By virtue of boons to the parents of Markendeya, he lived for sixteen years with great knowledge and wisdom. As per boon, the parents will have to loose the son at this age. The God, was actually testing His devotees as well as ‘Yama’ the one who put an end to lives.

Understanding the crucial situation as well as the grief of parents, Markendeya worshipped Lord Shiva. By that time “Yama” came on a Buffellow and tried to take away the life of Markendeya. Lord Shiva in order to save his devotee entered in to war with ‘Yama’ and killed him. The rountines on earth were terribly changed and no one faced death and there prevailed disorders. The Divines and Sages and Markendeya prayed the Lord to give life to ‘Yama’. God blessed the Yama and told that Markendeya as per boon would live at the age of sixteen only and he would never grow older.

Person who have the fear of enemy and those who are suffering with sickness and those who are under medical treatment should begin to pay homage to “Kaaalanai Vendra Moorthy” for his blessings. The name kaalam denotes Yama. Since Lord Shiva, defeated Yama, the name Kaalanai Vendra Moorthy suited to Lord Shiva.

The appearance of Lord Shiva in Lingothbhava Moorthy
is an excellent explanation of many theories of existence of Almighty Shiva. There were difference of opinion between Lord Maha Vishnu and Lord Brhama. The superiority of the task and power was the cause for the dispute. They met Lord Shiva and explained the subject and wanted to render justice. Lord Shiva informed them that the head and feet of Him were the targets fixed for Lord Brahma and Lord Maha Vishnu respectively. They should go and find out. The first comer would be the winner. Head and feet neither had the beginning nor the ending. That is the Sivaism.

He is formless and beyond all the forms. The head was searched by “Lord Brahma” who flew to the sky and space as a bird and searched. Lord Maha Vishnu as a pig digged the earth and searched. For both of them it was of no use.

But Lord Brahma with help of "Thazhampoo" a flower told a lie to Lord Shiva as if He found out the head of the Lord. But Lord Maha Vishnu accepted his impossibility.

Lord Shiva is beyond pure and impure. He punished Lord Brahma and cursed there could be no worship in temples for "Lord Brahma”, Lord Maha Vishnu was honoured. Lingoth Bhava Moorhty is seen in the idol, which is partially with face and up to knee only. Lord Brahma is in the form of bird and Lord Maha Vishnu in the form of pig are seen.

The people in political, judicial and with the jobs of arbitrary grounds, they have to worship the Lord LINGOTHBHAVA MOORTHY for their success in life.

The "Nandhi" is the mount of Lord Shiva. Nandhi is a Bull. Vidai is the word in tamil for Bull. Lord Shiva and his wife Goddess Parvathi (Umadevi) are seated upon "Nandhi". This is the atmosphere of loga-paripalana. All the worlds, beings, and creations are looked, at a glance of magnanimity. The idol is a symbol of benevolence. The unlimited kindness is seen in the facet of Lord Shiva with the Goddess Umadevi.

The devotees when they happen to look this idol will be freed from all kinds of sorrow and depression. The pure devotion to Lord Shiva will lead to the success and prosperity.

This appearance is so called as Shakthi and Shiva. This unity is most helpful to those who are in the state of getting married. Suitable bride or bridegroom as partner in life will be settled for a happy future.

Vidai Meethamarntha Moorthy and the prayers to him will boost the life of devotees. "The Kalaiyaar Temple" in district Ramnad in Tamil Nadu is a significant spot for worship. Persons with involvement in family as well as the newly wedded couple should have the practice to meditate the Lord Shiva who is the savior for one and all.

Among the divines, Manmatha and Rathi as a couple is defined here. Manmatha possesses a bow with flower-arrow. The bow is in curved form of the plant "Sugar cane" The Lotus flower is used as arrow. This creates sweet feelings and ambition in the heart. In the depth of heart arise such a feelings of love to adults, and grown up persons. On an occasion, Manmatha wanted to test the Almighty Shiva. He aimed at the Lord and made his attack with Lotus Flower. Manmatha did a very bad job. Is it worthy? How could he test the Supreme power with playful mood that too, when he was in meditation?

The Lord Shiva's anger and the hatred came out from His third eye. The firey eye in the fore head of Lord Shiva destroyed Manmatha. This made Manmatha to ashes. So the name "Kamanai Azhithavar" was formed. Here the name Kaman denotees (Manmatha), Wife Rathi begged the Lord and cried for mercy. God Shiva consoled with her approach and pardoned Manmatha and gave back his life.

Worshiping "Kamanai Azhithavar”, will give a balance of mind in the matters of love. In certain cases ladies in family, in their terms with their life mates are not satisfactory and find controversial behavior. They should worship Lord Shiva in this facet and get his boon.

Idol of Lord Shiva with demon king Jalandhara is adoring with divinely status.There is a myth behind this idol. King Jalandhara by the virtue of boon he had, great powers, which permitted him to live for-ever. His nature was bad and he ill-treated all the divines and devotees of Lord Shiva. His habits of torturing were causing great danger to the universe. Fortunately, he had a good wife. According to boon, the goodness and chastity of his wife would provide him the mightiest of all. Some times where the intelligence have no scope, the voluntary interference of divine power will happen and the destruction of evil power would reach to an end. Lord Mahavishnu participated here. The war between Jalandhara and Lord Shiva ended in the destruction of Jalandhara. The justice and goodness then guarded by Lord Shiva. Jalandhara, when he met his end, he came to understand his cruelty and begged pardon. Lord Shiva graciously accepted and granted him with the heavenly abode.

Here, the character of wife is good and that of the husband is bad. There occur problems inside home and office. Justice has got its own merit and never permit the injustice to dominate. In common life, there comes certain circumstance to give agony and torture. All such influences will vanish when the worship to Jalandhara Hara Moorthy is commenced.

The title of the Lord Shiva's facet gives some thing extraordinary fear to heart. The word ‘Kapala’ that means “skull”. That too Lord Brahma's kapala means, it is unbelievable. Lord Brahma is the creator of all the beings. It was at the early stage, when Lord Brahma was having five faces. His Lordship was attending the creation of all beings such as man, animal, bird, fish etc. Looking to the greatness of the job, he had the self-opinionatedness. He thought for himself as the supreme power than Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva in his turn took this matter seriously and plucked one of the heads of Lord Brahma. After this incidence Lord Brahma had only four heads. So, the skull of Lord Brahma occupied in the left hand of Lord Shiva. In the two right hands of Lord Shiva, were adorned with spear and axe. The other two hands in left were with Trishoolam and the skull. So the name Brahma Kapala Dara Moorthy is given to Lord Shiva.

Seniors in rank, and deserving persons for a right job and the other categorical persons in professions should pray Lord Brahma Kapala Dara Moorthy for the early success in their attempts.

Once Dhakshan the father of "Uma devi" performed a grand yagna. (Ritual before fire) Though Dhakshan was the father in law of Lord Shiva, he refused to invite Lord Shiva to participate in that yagna. But Uma Devi wife of Lord Shiva longed to attend the yagna. It was against the will of her husband. She went to Dhakshan's yagna. She faced disrespect from her father, in the yagna function. She committed suicide at that yagna-sala itself. By knowing this matter Lord Shiva went to his father-in-law's palace in the shape of Veerabhadra and killed his father in law by cutting off his head. Then Lord Shiva with his super power gave life to his wife to come alive. At that time the other deities prayed Lord Shiva to give life to Dhakshan being his father-in-law. All the deities wanted the yagna to be completed. So Lord Shiva placed a goat's head to Dhakshan's body and gave life to him also. In this facet Lord Shiva appears with a big moustache in his face. He is in standing position.

By worshipping this idol the devotees will be blessed with progress in all fields of life. Because the efforts of Lord Shiva took place in a war and involved in a nature of enemity, the devotees in their life facing such troubles should follow worshiping "Veerabhathra Moorthy" for the suitable remedy.

There are several happenings which end only in war and destruction. Lord Shiva kill the enemies on the ground of justice.

In the Zodiac there is one star called Arudhra. The Almighty’s star is Arudra. The sages of good old ages have written this. Still the festival “Arudhra Dharshan” we celebrate during December. (Margzhali)

Rudhra is ‘Aasu gopi’ (sharp mood of anger) and he is having the “Thrishoolam” in his right hand. Feelings are observed with different qualities in different times such as fighting, touching, smelling, hearing and seeing. We are able to see the Lord Shiva in graceful states as well as frightening moods.

People are also of different varieties. The persons with fearful nature are quite common every where. From the category of students to merchants, many of them worried much for the situations.

Students may be with fear to get promotion. Marchants are worried with business and unsold stocks. Like wise almost all categories and sections of society will be with complicated problems.

Languages and grammars were created by Lord Shiva. Venom in English, Visham in Sanskrit and Vidam in Tamil, all the three words give the meaning Poison. The title gives the meaning of eating the poison.

Lord Shiva, is named as Vida Munda Kanda Moorthy” The Divines and Demons jointly entered in to a great job to obtain “Amirtha” (Sacred Nector to give deathless life). It was to be churned in depth of milky ocean. Demons and Divines concluded to share the Nector as and when the job completed.

A big mountain “Meru” was selected as churner. Long snake in place of rope was taken to encircle on the churner. Too big and great were the instruments. Mount Meru was in middle duty circled by snake. Head side of snake was operated by Demons and the tail side of snake was handled by Divines. The churning started. As expected ‘Amirtha’ did not come. The venom came first in huge quantity. Both Demons and Divines could not bear the destroying power of poison. They prayed Lord Shiva who appeared and took the venom and began to swallow it. Goddess Uma Devi, finding the dangerous act of her husband Lord Shiva. She caught the neck of Her husband by her hand and stopped the venom at the throat of her husband. The Almighty Shiva’s act of benevolence were praised and honored by Divines and Demons. Then they continued the job of acquiring the ‘Nectar’.

When any body calls Him for help, Lord Shiva will be the Saviour.

Before commencing big projects, construction and any of normal job it is essential to pay homage to Lord Vidamunda Kanda Moorthy. Hrudhayartha pooja (holy prayers) will be fortifying the tasks and ventures for a strong and sturdy completion.

Lord Maha Vishnu and Brahma are along with Lord Shiva. This form is called "Thiru Moorthy". One time Lord Maha Vishnu happened to be without any weapon to guard. He prayed Lord Shiva to bless him with a good weapon. Then Lord Shiva gave him a holy wheel that cannot be defeated by any power. The holy wheel is called Sudharsana chakra. "Su" gives the meaning vision. The holy wheel has the capacity to look the past, present and future. So it is called as "Sudharsana". So it will attach the enemies in which ever the state, they occupy.

In this facet Lord Shiva has four hands. The first right hand and left hand are giving the chakra (a flying wheel of destructions) to Maha Vishnu the second right hand is adorned with an axe. The second left hand is adorned with His pet deer.

Interesting myth about the God Vigneswara is to be known by all. Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi are treated by devotees as Father and Mother to all and that they named the couple as “Ammai Appan". Ammai Parvathi liked to have a child. She asked her husband to bless a child for her. Since the Lord is of the theory He have neither beginning nor the ending and exist everywhere, the importance of child did not rise. For the wishes of Ammai Parvathi, Lord Shiva blessed her a male child through his sweating (residue of body).

One day when Ammai Parvathi was bathing in a pool. She asked her son not to permit any body in. Lord Shiva met with an encounter with the boy. The boy was ferocious to attack Lord Shiva who then cut off the head of the boy. Ammai Parvathi came to the scene and begged the Lord to give life to the boy. Lord Shiva then annexed a head of the elephant to the body of the boy. He felt happy to see his boy with great strength. He was called as "VIGNESHWARA". He gave boon to Vigneshwara to be regarded as a first Deity in all the festivals of divine land and world. Thus we do the first homage to Lord Vigneshwar and commence the continuation of any ritual and poojas.

Three Gods namely Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma are the supreme powers to create the worlds, planets, and stars in the zodiac. The sages in the forest called "Dhuka Vanam" prayed Lord Shiva to see the form of unity of the three Gods. Further explanation to this word unity, we can find in epics the name called "MumMoorthy". The three major powers on the cause of creation, protection and destruction united together and appeared in one form. In the combined form Lord Brahma occupying the left side of Shiva, Here the Lord Shiva appears with one leg. His hands are with deer and axe. Lord Mahavishnu is with Sudharshana and Panchajennya occupying the right side. Sudharsana is the weapon of Lord Vishnu. That will destroy the enemies. The Panchajennya is a conch, which he used to operate at the Warfield. Lord Brahma is having Rudhraksha. (A chain of sacred nuts) and a small water pot. The name of Eka Paadha Moorthy is confined upon this reasons explained above. All the three powers are in one, and that the leg is one in this idol.

The world with peace, unity in the society, and cooperative nature are involved in this facet. So the devotees longing for marriage with status and willing to combine with strong partners should worship the Lord Eka Paadha Moorthy who will bless the devotees with good prospects.

Hiranya Kasibu, a notable demon king got several boons from Lord Brahma. Boon related to his life that no one could put an end to his life either as man or divine or by bird or animal or insect. Either in daytime or night, the death should not occur. He had composed for himself all the measures in the boon and wanted to live as a sole authority including Deva loga (Divine Land), Boologa (earth and all places). He had restricted everyone worshiping the Lord Shiva and Lord Maha Vishnu. He inducted his name "Hiranya" in Manthra. Instead of "Om Namo Narayana "he insisted to chant as "Om Hiranyaya Namaha". His atrocities were unbearable since he attacked the Indraloka also. Lord Mahavishnu wanted to put an end to him. Hiranya's son Prahalatha was chanting the manthra as "OM NAMO NARAYANA".This is the mantra to pray Lord Maha vishnu Hiranya got angry and asked his son "where is Narayana". Prahalatha showed a pillar and told Lord Narayana will be even in dust and in the pillar. Hiranya holding the strong of his weapon called "gatha" attacked the pillar. Lord Maha Vishnu having the face of a lion and the body as human came out of the pillar. The time was neither day nor night (Evening). All the principles were irrelevant to the capacity of the boon, which Hiranya had from Lord Brahma. Maha Vishnu in Narashimha Avathar (man and beast) took Hiranya and laid him upon his thigh and destroyed him by toring his stomach into pieces. After the war the ferocious trend of Lord Maha Vishnu spelled danger to earth. Divines and devotees who were feared too much with out knowing the out come. Lord Shiva with his capacity changed in a terrible form of a combination of man, divine, bird and animal. This facet is called "SARABA".

At the sight of this peculiar creature, the killer of Hiranya (i.e., Lord Mahavishnu) came to the normalcy and attained the calm nature. This facet of Lord Shiva's is most important for those who are affected by the evil spirit or black magic of enemies. Prayer to Lord Saraba Moorthy will give great relief to the sufferers.

Here the appearance is exhibited with teeth which are projecting horribly in both side of mouth. At a glance, if any one happens to look, will feel great fear. He kills all the enemies who do harm to His devotees.

This atmosphere of destruction, He continue on account of putting an end to devils. Devils as demons described several times. But in the human heart itself there occur the injustice, unlawful desires, thoughts of killing, plans of stealing, ideas to possess the other person’s properties etc. These kinds of acts are also considered as devilish nature. The mankind should give importance and deserve them selves for a dignified life. All these doctrines are composed in this idol.

When a person happen to behave out of gears, the Lesson-Teller is Lord Shiva. So, one can attain peace first and proper development with prosperity will reach next.

At home sometimes children will behave with rough nature and rough tendencies. Even if the parents advice for the welfare of them, they will not obey. For such type of persons we should teach them to pray Lord Agora Rudhra Moorthy who will bring peace and pave prosperous way to life.

Fourth face, facing the western direction is called the “Vaama Deva Moorthy”. Lord Shiva is the author for Rig Vedha which is considered as a most important one to the human kind.

One could learn all the four Vedhas but to understand the absolute meanings more and more knowledge is needed. The man kind adopt just a preliminary way of approach.

Great saint ‘Vedha Viyasa’ describes the Vedhas are in shape of ‘cow’ and the Upanishads are in shape of ‘milk’ of the cow. The followers of Upanishads (Vedhic Theories) are very rare and the habits of the society are also changing to adversity.

The soul, the mind, and thoughts are to be focused in prayer. The people like pandits, vedhic teachers, professors, and those who are engaged in educational institution should devote regular time to worship the Lord Vaam Deva Moorthy. The programmes and developments will be bringing them the name and fame with prosperity.

In the facet of Lord Shiva, the face which is facing the north, is called Sadhyo Jaatha Moorthy. A mark of silence, and meditation are manifested. The sacred palm-leave on the hand shows, the Almighty is the grantor of chadur vedhas (four volumes of holy theories). In an other hand the garland of rudhraksha (sacred nuts) is occupying.

Here we happen to look the idol “VEERA” with a strengthy and brave nature. A big snake is around his neck. Big moustaches enhance the appearance to be fearful.

The blessings hand and the other one with trishoolam are with a nature of guarding his devotees.

Many people are still with fear for everything. When the mothers bring up the children they should teach lessons on the Heroes and Gods who come out successfully after the destruction of evils.

The pious nature and the obedience are essential but to behave always as slaves with lot of fear is not advisable. In travels and going alone in new places, the confidence in protection and safe guarding the things, they should posses certain braveness. The deity “Veera Moorthy” when worshipped with devotion the essential strength, confidence and the braveness will be granted.

For elderly persons also, we look in several families with so much of cowardly gestures. Even if they look a Scorpio, they will run away. These types of fear may lead to the status of unfitness to lead their families.

If the people with fearful nature begin to worship, ‘Lord Veera Moorthy’ they will become bold, step by step.

The deity Lord Shiva is seen in this facet with boldness and anger. The “Trishoolam” is the weapon he is holding in his right hand. The mankind will be suffering with so many tasks and troubles in their lives. Who else accept the God could relieve the sufferings.

Lord Shiva for the sake of divines and devotees met the Demons is several war fields and put the ends to the enemies of mankind.

The worshipping of “Rudhra Moorthy” every one should have the pure devotion. They should maintain neatness, honesty and good character. Lord Shiva is ‘Sathya Swarooba’ – entirety of justice. The people and the students community should take oaths before the idol and follow with the doctrines of truth, justice, and peace.

The remarkable improvements, good jobs, positions, status, and prosperity will reach them with out any difficulty. In Punjab (India) the River called Rudhra Prayag is on the name of Blissful God “Rudhra Moorthy”.

The Divine Yama is the authority for committing the ends to any life on the earth. On particular time, the death will come and yama will be taking away the life of living being by either sick or accident. When the births are occurring in one side the deaths are bound to occur on the other end. This is the specific job allotted to the divine Yama. It is his duty also.

Lord Shiva in an attempt to save his devotee Markandeya, considered yama as enemy and met him with a war and killed Yama.

This act, is being well manifested in the idol of ‘Kaalari Moorthy’.

Devotees when they worship the Lord they should note the theme of the action. This incidence is connected to safeguarding the life of Markandeya. In human life, the sicknes accident, old age and hospitalization are all common. The relevant cure and remedy are in the hands of doctors. The problem of life giving nature links to the attempt of Doctors. So it is beneficial to the profession-oriented doctors. This will be spiritual guidance for their Profession.

Superior position of braveness is defined as “Parakrama”. Lord Shiva will be having every yielding nature towards His devotees. His ardoned devotee Markandeya was in the clutches of Yama. It was the time of target as per the duties of Yama who should take away the life of Markandeya. Lord Shiva appeared with great anger to kill Yama. The “Linga” a common semicircle type of statue of Lord Shiva is seen all over. The arms and accoutrements like trishoolam give a great fear to look at. This exhibits the “Paraakrama” of Lord Shiva.

This idol will give more braveness to children who often face illness. Several people, they have the nature to have the fear while they go to bed. Many people cultivate the habit of extraordinary obedience and even to spell a word as reply they possess no guts. All such humble and pious nature should have a change to show their required boldness.

The society is having all kinds of people. So it is essential to be brave with strength. Lord Shiva in this facet will bless one and all with the essential boldness. Worshiping Paraakrama Shiva Moorthy will be blessed with fair and reasonable status in society.

Time factor on the name of fate is allowing all the lives to stay on this world for a particular period. This period is based according to birth time and the rendered good activities of the previous birth. Divine Yama is the authority to attend such account and deal with deaths of all.

Markandeya was an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva. His fate was ending at his age of sixteen. At the time, when Yama came to take the life of Markndeya, he was worshiping the Lord Shiva. But Yama’s duty was also to be executed. Yama was applying the rope upon Markandeya. The rope which will drag out and dislink the earthly affection of life. Lord Shiva was the grantor of such boon, which then came in to force. But Lord Shiva looking to the spell of danger to his ardent devotee fought with Yama and killed him. This was the nature of timely rescue of Lord Shiva. Later, the divines begged the ardent devotee Markandeya and explained that the routine of universal norms were disturbed and the maintenance of activities on earth were disturbed. Markandeya composed poems with great devotion on Lord Shiva. Then Lord was pleased very much and gave the life to Yama. This notable occurance predicts that Lord Shiva will be the protector when the danger comes. Fear for life and illness will be gracefully attended by Lord Shiva. The devotion to him should be kept in a high degree.

Sages and saints say that the Lord Shiva is the real grantor of boons in need. Sadha means, it is always. Having come to the earth as human beings, the nature of problems and sufferings are always with every one. Here we look the Lord with five faces and ten hands. The weapons on his hands are teaching lessons to the humanity and guides to maintain justice, peace, wealth and health. The ferocious weapon with different forms will be employed by the Lord on all evil forces. When we look the idol, our hearts get purified and possessed with hopes, confidence and success.

This idol, one can start worshiping from child hood. The appearance is very calm and desirable. The grace will flow from his majestic looks spontaneously. The prayer calling him as “Om Namashivaya” will be keeping the devotee in a satisfactory mood and will lead to a comfortable life.

Ashta buja, gives the meaning of eight hands. The deed and activities defined here, will be relating to the killing of Yama by Lord Shiva. The facets are in form of fighting and destructing are again and again explained here to come to a conclusion that there is a battle always between good and bad. If we examine the nature of demons, they lived a lawless life. They did not merit justice. So they were killed. Here the divine Yama a duty conscious authority is punished. The Lord Shiva, a supreme power of all the worlds, planets and space. in the case of Markandeya, He Himself framed the law that Markandeya should be permitted to live up to sixteen years. When the parents of Markandeya begged the boon the Lord gave them two options. Lord Shiva’s first option was that a son to live a long but without knowledge and wisdom. The second option was to bless a son who could live only a sixteen years but with profound knowledge. This boon at the final stage granted with the second option. Lord Shiva took the privilege to break his own law and saved Markandeya from Yama. At the same time he grants the boon to Markandeya to live upon this world always with the character of age of sixteen. Markandeya lives still. From this act we can find the diety Lord Shiva as most generous. This idol is having enormous power to bless the devotees who make their prayer to Ashta Buja Kaalari.

The earth and its age is connected to yuga. Yuga means a certain period in several lakhs of years that is named as Yuga. For example the kali Yuga is to survive for 4,32,000 years. When the Yuga gets the end, the destruction will occur. Then the reformation of world will be commenced. The new Yuga begins. This is history of earth. The destruction is the name for samhara as thandavam. The Lord Shiva is doing the great destruction. That is samhara (destroying) of all the lives on earth. The idol of Samhara Thandava Moorthy is in a form where the Lord Shiva keep his left leg on the evil spirit “Muyalakan”. Lord’s head is with crescent moon. His ten hands are with various instruments for the need of making a new universe. The dance is defined as Agora Thandava. Just a step with force, will create earth quake. If his fire pot in one hand just dazzle, the valcanos will burst. Fire with abnormal heat will leave not even the grass to live. All will become ashes. This fearful appearance is exposed in the idol of Samhara Thandava Moorthy.

Several people live with great patience and face all the troubles from enemies. Even then, the shrewd and heartless attitude will continue. In such unbearable situation, the prayer to Samhara Thandava Murthy is necessary to over come all the tortures and merciless attacks of enemies. This is most sacred matter and should be done only for the right causes with great devotion.

When Markandeya was given asylum by Lord Shiva, the divine Yama was constrained to face death. The ferocious attack by Lord Shiva created unbearable heat upon the universe. The divines and the devotees of Lord, begged Markandeya to console Lord Shiva. Markandeya being blessed with wisdom and great knowledge by Shiva, he started to sing the devotional lyrics on Shiva. The profound themes and melody were such, that provoked the feelings of Lord Shiva and resulted to the compromise. Lord Shiva observed the calm state and pardoned the Devine Yama. The earth had reached to the routine. The duty of Yama to rule upon lives on earth continued. The normalcy was reached. So the idol defined here is for reaching the calm state.

Every where, now a days more and more complications and confusions are prevailing. Several places, there occur conflicts and quarrels. The need of peace is a forgotten matter. So it is essential to worship Lord Abaya Lingeswara Moorthy who could well honor to the call of devotees to flourish with peace and prosperity.

Lord Shiva, in a war with Andhakasura, comes out victoriously after killing him. He was a demon king. He was blind. Even then he behaved as enemy to the divines and the devotees of Shiva. The troubles were unbearable and devotees at last, prayed Lord Shiva for their rescue. He appeared before demon with great anger. Andhakaasura with his skills of thantra fought with Lord Shiva.

The weapons he employed were of the, qualities of great destruction. Lord shiva did not permit and reattacked the demon with his Thirishoolam (sharp weapon with three edges) and killed him. Lord Shiva’s appearance with Andhakaasura is well exposed in this idol. The activity of curbing down the demon gave great relief to the divines and devotees.

The specific idol when prayed with devotion, the devotees are graced with progress and relief from the evil and troubles. In the human life several times they have to cross with enemies. The tortures of such kind will vanish. The good omen will intervene and thus the satisfaction and freedom will be reached to the devotees.

In general kaalan will give the meaning of time. Kallam + Avan. In one sense kalam represents age. When we deeply think it is the end, which will cut the earthly life and allow for next form. The temple of Lord Shree Kesava (Maha Vishnu) is at Thiruvattaaru. In this temple (deity) Lord Shiva is in dancing state. His feet are laid on the body of Yama who is the authority to put an end to every life. Lord Shiva’s face is with anger. His eyes are piercing on the neck of Yama. What could we understand from this position, is that the Lord Shiva always hears to the call of devotees and rescue them. As for as the divinely matters referred all the saints say that the Lord Shiva is always generous to give boons. To get boons from Lord Vishnu will be difficult. Here Lord Shiva shows his mercy. Even if one’s fate ends on particular time, he is giving shelter and rejects Yama’s interference. The said time of departure from world will be modified as per his powers. All the devotees are expected to understand about kalam and Kalaarreeswara. Prayers for Lord Kaalarreeswara will give long life with happiness. Those who are of good health and recovery from sickness Lord Shiva will bless long life.

Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma are the creations of Adhi Parashakthi. This comes from Parasakthi purana. Lord Brahma creates the life. Lord Vishnu protect the life and Lord Shiva destroy the life. The three happenings are fixed and the life on earth thus continues.Mruthyunjayar is Lord Shiva. The Yama bhaya (fear) will be there to all from the child hood to old age. The Yama is the killer. He puts an end to life by way of sickness, accident and old age. Mruthyunjayar will rescue the sufferers. He is seated on lotus. His face is with full of grace. In his Right hand he possess rope, which will tie the trouble. The other hand shows "Mudra"- blessing symbol of guidance. In his left hands a deer and Rudraksha are present. Rudhraksha is a small chain with sacred nuts. Yama, the killer is said to be obedient to Lord Shiva and that the name Thrayakshara Mruthyunjayar is suited to Lord Shiva.Devotees, those who are ill and facing serious operations, they should worship Lord Mruthyunjayar who will rescue the life and relieve the sufferings. We have in our Vedic process the Mruthyunjaya homa, to please the God Shiva and Yama. This is highly powerful for early ailments from sickness.

We actually, feel the happiness when we look the facet ‘Maha Mrithyunjaya Moorthy’. He is in a seat of Lotus. We have seen Lord Shiva in several facets but this is one of the important idol. We know Diamond, the precious stone. When we get it from the earth it will be a crude one. No attraction or brightness could be found. The grinding and shaping on a carbonic process, the sides and facets are arranged for a grand and glittering forms. The God, we see and observe only in such way. On this facet we can see the “Ganges”. The Goddess Ganges comes out as spring from the Lord’s head. Lord is having two pots on two hands. He is adorning with grace.

The persons, who are afraid for health condition and longevity, they have to give much importance to this facet. Lord Shiva will grant the boon with his Amirtha Kalasa (Nectar which will give ever lasting life).

Upon this world, the aged person, sick persons and those who are taking medical treatments will be much benefited. The Famous ‘Myrthyunjaya’ Homa will be conducted to please the Lord “Maha Myrthyunjaya Moorthy”.

The crucial operations in medical treatment will be getting success. So, the patients as well as doctors, should worships this Deity who will be in support for successful ailments.

According to the Hindu saints and Rishis, the calculations, of four yugas are referred. Krutha Yuga, Dhiretha Yuga, Duwabara Yuga and Kaliyuga. Yuga means the earth has got the period of age. Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu and Lord Shiva attend the great tasks of creation, protection and destruction, respectively. So the age of the earth is countable for several thousand years. 'Kala' gives the meaning of time. When theYuga ends, Lord Shiva do the complete-destruction. Thrilling and with horrible ways of killing, the job will be attended.

This facet of Lord Siva is named as "Maha Kala Maha Rudhrar" which gives fear in the name itself. People upon this world are of different nature. The discipline and habits are the most important norms to be lawful to do their duties. Some people threaten the others and do many harmful jobs. So the victims of such actions, will have to give homage to Lord 'Maha Rudhrar' and get the power to protect all such attacks. Thus they can come out successful from the attack of enemies.

Those who are effected by mental agony and even by the affair of evil spirit and black magic, they are freed from trouble. The fear of any kind of evil spirit will also come to an end.

Lord Shiva is appearing with his hairs is a form of crown. Desire and passion towards the opposite sex, several times prove worse and curtail the prosperity of human beings. The controlling power is most essential. It is to be practiced from the child hood. A good character can be built with the base of discipline. Lord Shiva is the killer of Manmathan. The Devine Manmathan (cupid) provokes the feelings of passion. On one occasion, he met face to face with Lord Shiva, who is the Almighty and unreachable to any attempt of Manmatha. Lord Shiva burnt him to ashes. This action exposes his view of firmness and stability. His concentrations could never be diverted by any means. This is the lesson; Lord Shiva exhibits here the principle of concentration in engaged tasks.

So, the devotees with meditations and aims to reach a goal of wisdom could never be attracted by any gravitation of desire and passion. Manmatha (cupid) a beautiful divine with sugarcane as Bow and Lotus as arrow attack the youngsters and create passion and love in their Hearts. This will divert their attention in study.

In the walk of lives of human, every second is awaiting for divertion. So the concentration is disturbed in what the noble job they do. Aiming for success and promotion, Lord Shiva should be worshiped in this facet called ‘Kamantha Hara Moorthy’.

Godliness is teaching the lessons to control Kama and Krotha. 'Krotha' will be with basic feelings of vengeance and in the same time leads to do harm to others. Here the appearance of Krotha Rudra Moorthy, mainly connects to destroy the evils. That too, the forces which are troubling the mankind and other livings.

Lord Shiva with all his weapons like Gadha, Chakra, and Conch give darshan in this idol. Charka is a flying wheel, which destroys enemies in fraction of a second. Conch will be used as Trumpet triton at time of the war. "Gatha" could shake entire universe and kill the enemies. In such a ferocious manner Lord Shiva appear here.

There is an interesting myth behind this peculiar idol of Lord Shiva. The idol is unity of Lord Shiva and Lord Maha Vishnu .who is the brother of goddess Umadevi.

Nectar is a sacred liquid which offers immortality. Those who drink it, they will never face death. Divines longed to have it. The milky ocean was then churned. The churner used there was the mountain "MAHA MERU". Divines with the help of demons carried out the job of obtaining Nectar. The longest snake "VASUKI" was used as rope to churn. On the head-side of Vasuki the demons agreed to operate while the tail-side was for divines. When the nectar came out of the milky ocean, the divines prayed Maha Vishnu and exposed their fear. Nectar was to be shared and they had to give the half of it to demons who could attain immortality and cause danger to divines. In order to oblige the divines Lord Maha Vishnu came to the scene as a beautiful lady and took the pot of the nectar to distribute. The demons fell asleep as soon as they looked the appearance of the beautiful lady with Nectar. Lord Maha Vishnu obliged to the prayer of divines and distributed all the nectar to divines. The lord Shiva much attracted to the beautiful appearance of Maha Vishnu in female form and He wished the unity of power of beautiful appearance of Lord Vishnu, which resulted at once, and the deity Sree AYYAPPA came to the world as son of Lord Shiva and Lord Maha Vishnu. The unity of two incomparable powers solemnized and executed a potential divinity to the universe. That is Lord Shri Ayyappa who is being worshiped by crores and crores of devotees. Name Hari is for Lord Vishnu and Hara for Lord Shiva. This unity is named as “Hari Haran”

This is a most important facet of Lord Shiva. Shiva is with Shakthi. Shakthi means power. In a body, bone is there. Bone alone cannot move, serve and speak. Lord Shiva if considered as basic structure, the flesh, nerves, vision, life and sound, are empowered by Shakthi, who is no other than Goddess Umadevi, his wife. So the unity of both, prevails in every body and all kind of lives on earth. Saints and sages explain this great theme under the basic principles of life on earth.

Times will change. The equality as well as respectability will blossom in their life.This facet is seen with Goddess Uma Devi. She is sharing the half of the Body of lord shiva.

Lord Sundereshwarar was coming with his regiment to invade the country of king Malayathwaja. Daughter of the king, princess Parvathy with her army met Lord Sundereshwara at the battle field.

She fell in love with the Lord and thus the marriage took place. Young persons and those who are in the state for marriage, they should begin to worship this idol KALYANA SUNDARESWARA MOORTHY.

Man is created by God. God is existing in every human and other being. So the quality of sensation will also subject to the existence. When Lord Shiva killed his father in law the ferocious movement and tensions could not be subsided even after putting an end to his father-in-law.

Dhakshan the father of Goddess Uma Devi, did not invite his son in law Lord Shiva for a function “great yagna”. Goddess Uma Devi wanted to attend the function and went. But she was not respected by her father. She committed suicide at the yagna sala. (pedestal of sacred fire) After knowing the happenings, Lord Shiva came to the spot as “Veerabadra”. It was a form of great warrior and killed His father in law. Lord “Veerabadra” could not control himself and his anger was causing danger. Sages and divines begged the Lord to come down to the normalcy. Lord gave the presence of peacefulness “Shantham”.
