Sree Thuluvannoorappan
Thuluvannur was one of the important Tulu Gramam in ancient Kerala.
Thuluvannur Sree Mahavishnu Temple was the Grama Kshethra of Thuluvannur
and Lord Mahavishnu was known as Thuluvannurappan. It is believed
that the temple was constructed in the Chozha regime centuries
by the Seevolli Namboothiris (Thulu desa Brahmins) who were strong
Vaishnavites.The Four Armed (Chaturbahu)
Idol of Lord Mahavishnu is the main prathishta in this temple.
The Sudarshana Chakra in the hand of the Lord idol can be found
as if it is ‘ready for use’. In this way this prathishta
is different from that of other Mahavishnu Temples with this special
characteristic of the idol. The important offering in this temple
is Vishnu Pooja. Many devotees from far and near visit the temple
to offer Vishnu Pooja to Thuluvannurappan for ‘Santhana
labdhi’ and ‘Abheeshta Sidhi’. |
