Sri Azhaghiya Manavala Perumal Amman: Sri Kamalavalli Thayar

Introduction

Erivoy Village is located at a distance of about 1 km from Ayyanpettai village on the Walajabad-Kanchipuram road. The condition of Sri Kamalavalli Mother Sameda Sri Azhaghiya Manavala Perumal Temple located in Erivai village near Kanchipuram is in very bad condition. The temple is in a state of disrepair amidst fields that look like green mosaics. The ruined front door Beyond that, here is the status of many neglected village temples in Tamil Nadu. Completely crumbling walls, spreading wild thorn plants. Entering inside, there is a front hall of about 300 square feet. Roof made of black stone. Fortunately, there was no such damage by Lord Perumal in the sanctum sanctorum and Arthamandapam.

Puranic Significance

To his right is Sri Kamalavalli’s Thayar. Many locals said that this saint is like Sri Alagiya Manavalap Perumal who bestows blessings from here in Trichy Uraiyur. We know that this temple comes under the control of the Treasury. But no arrangement was made by them for any eternal worship or maintenance. At the initiative of the people of Erivai village, a college student named Rajesh from the village is currently performing pooja by lighting two lamps in the temple. A well-grown palm tree on the roof of the temple. Its tentacles are well spread on the outer walls of the sanctuary. A few years ago the villagers cut down the tree as much as possible by their own efforts and partially preserved the temple. “Taken from the records of the Annamalaiyar Charitable Trust”.
