Introduction

Like the Rameshwaram worshiped by Ramabran, Ramanadeecharam was performed by Rama. The Sivalinga Thirumeni is also revered by the Jyotirlinga. If you worship the Lord of blessings at this level, you will get the blessings of the twelve Lord Jyotir Lingas in India.Build by Cholas

Puranic Significance

The killing of Ravana resulted in the Brahma-dhatshi dosha being given to Rama. Raman went to many places to get rid of that sin and came to this place as part of it.Nandi Devi overcame him when he came to see Ayyan, when he was bathing in the bush karani tirtha. ‘The sin that killed Ravana did not go away for you. So you shouldn’t go in, ‘he argues. But Ambika was shocked by the incident. Immediately he comes there and grabs Nandi by his side and lets Raman go in. Ramabran also goes in and worships the lingam. Thereafter he receives a curse. Eisen, who cursed Raman, became known as ‘Ramanadeswarar, Ramalingeswarar’. Because of Nandi’s disobedience, Raman came in and worshiped Lord Shiva, and this shrine became known as ‘Ramanandeswaram’. That’s exactly what Maruvi is now called ‘Ramanadeecharam’.
