A very special and significant Hanuman Temple |
|
| |
|
|
| |
The alathiyoor Perumthrikovil Temple is special to its devotees for very many reasons. Sree Rama is the Presiding Deity here. The daily puja-rituals, offerings by devotees, and the spectacular annual Temple Festival – all are held in honour of the Presiding Deity, Sree Rama. However, the devotees popularly refer to this temple, the ‘Hanuman Kavu’ Temple. And, in a way, it symbolizes the triumph of the supreme strength of Bhakti of Sree Hanuman as an ideal, which overshadows the presiding deity, Lord Sree Rama. |

The Sree Kovil of Sree Rama at alathiyoor |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Here, Sree Rama is visualized as the Maryada-Purushothaman- he is separated from his beloved consort, Sita, by the mighty Ravana who has abducted her to Lanka. Sree Rama is seen entrusting Hanuman the possible task of locating the whereabouts of Sita. Sree Rama confides to Hanuman about how to look for Sita in Lanka. Hanuman, now, only has to cross the vast and formidable sea that separates Lanka from the main land. Thirty three Crore Gods have gathered to witness this significant Act. It is an act in which the Avatar-purush Sree Rama seeks the assistance of his bhakta, Hanuman. All the Gods bestow Hanuman with their enormous strength, so that he succeeds in his mission. For Hanuman, this is very significant moment. And hence, his pre-eminence at alathiyoor. |

Sree Kovil of Hanuman |

The temple of Sri Hanuman is adjacent to the main Temple of Sree Rama. Sree Hanuman stands leaning a little towards the left, to hear his master’s words. Sree Rama is confiding in Hanuman the cue-word ( Abhignana Vaakyam ) that would enable him to gain the confidence of Sita. Hanuman has a mace in his hand. The numerous Gods bestowed their enormous power on Sree Hanuman. He is all set to accomplish his mission, which is seeking the whereabouts of Sita. Here he is the personification of divine strength, confidence, concentration of purpose, Bhakti, and above all humility. He is the symbol of supreme self-sacrifice. He seems to be assuring Sree Rama: “Your wish is my command”. Devotees of Hanuman throng to this temple to make their wishes and be heard by the mighty Hanuman. |
