Chidambaram thillai kali amman temple driver#
Paid Rs 150 to the auto driver for the to & fro charges from Chidambaram bus stand I took an autorickshaw and went there, as the road to this temple is small, narrow and in pretty bad shape.
There are no buses to this temple from Chidambaram bus stand. See all the 100 Photos given for this blog The temple,approach roads are hot, carry a cap or umbrella.Thillai Kali Temple, Chidambaram17th December But the temple has lot of powers and meditation provides the real vibrations. Powerful Goddess, devotees throng to see her, Fridays and holidays the rush is high, a small temple so have to be careful on holidays and week ends.
This unique pose of Lord Shiva with his left leg lifted up is the posture of famous Lord Nataraja who is inside the Natarajar Temple. Kali seem to have challenged Lord Shiva in dance and lost because Lord Shiva lifted his left leg as a dance posture which Goddess kali could not do and accepted the defeat and settled in this temple in the same kali roopa along with her original incarnation Thillai Amman. The Goddess is also stationed inside the temple in a Kali roopam offering power to every devotee. The Goddess is stationed there as Thillai amman like the Goddess in any Shiva temple. The temple is very small, but not the Goddess or her power. About a Kilo Meter walk from the northern gopuram, of the famous Nataraja temple in Chidambaram, the approach, the roads, surroundings are sort of OK.
