Danvantri Peedam Iyappan |
Vellore District Collector Dr.R.Nandha Gopal with Swamigal. |
‘Thiruvonam’ star is auspicious
for Lord Narayanan and is celebrated every month at the Sri Danvantri Arogya
Peedam, Walajapet, Vellore district. But the Onam festival falling on September
6th 2014 is considered more auspicious at the peedam as Onam is being
celebrated globally by Keralites irrespective of their religion or caste.
Peedam founder, Sri Muralidhara
Swamigal, has denoted this Thiruvonam star as a special day for curing ailments
by offering prayers to Lord Danvantri, the ruling deity of the peedam, who is
none other than Lord Narayanan himself.
It is a twin pleasure visiting
the Sri Danvantri Arogya Peedam as the Swamigal has installed a 7-foot-high
stone idol of Lord Danvantri (Aadhi Vaidhyar), and also a unique 3-foot-high
stone idol of Lord Danvantri (Pini Theerpavar) and Ganapathi (Vinai Theerpavar)
from a single stone and with their backs together. The remarkable idol was
carved by the famed Loganathan Sthapathy of Mahabalipuram.
A note from the peedam says that
the Danvantri idol which rests back-to-back with the Ganesha idol has Goddess
Lakshmi in his heart, symbolising a doctor with a heart of abundance.
The Swamigal has made
arrangements for thailabishekam (ritual oil bath), which is very special for
Lord Danvantri, followed by alankaram, aradhanai, archanai, homam and mass
prayer to invite Mahabali Chakravarthi. The Swamigal will be allowing devotees
to directly perform thailabishekam for Lord Vinayaka-Danvantri , Sabari malai Iyappan Maha Homam and Abisheagam. which will help
them “get their ailments cured and gain positive energy”
The note invites all devotees for
this unique celebration of Thiruvonam at the peedam and to receive the
boundless blessings of Danvantri Bhagawan.
