Sivan Malai = The hill of lord siva (Tamil: Siva(n)- Lord Shiva, Malai - a hill)

It is an ancient sapphire yielding site. A beautiful Temple dedicated to Lord Muruga near Kangaeyam. This lord is also known as Karthikeya, Skanda among other myraid names. He is the lord of war and victory. In mythology he is the son of Lord Shiva and Parvathi, but was born unconceived. The temple has the classic south indian (and Tamil) architecture. It is situated on top of the hill in a square walled complex. A lower -hip height- outer wall sourrounds a broad walkway around the temple that lets the 'car festival' happen as well allow devotes to perform the classic 'clockwise' walk around the temple. The path on the inner end is bounded by the tall temple walls. The entry to the temple is via the classic 'gopuram' (Tamil: Gopuram - tower). Inside you find another walk path surrounding the core temple (Tamil: Sanidhi - sanctum). The core temple houses the idol of the lord Muruga. An annual car festival occurs here. The car is a gopuram topped four wheeled platform that is pulled by devotees around the temple. This lets the lord preside over the outside of the temple in the fore mentioned walkway. This is a beautiful temple situated in a beautiful location.

  • Hi vino, With regard to your query on cancer treatment, I hope you may find the below info useful. 1. Dhanvantri is the Lord of Medicine. First chant 1008 dhanavantri moola mantra daily, till you get relief from the disease. (Affected person should do) 2. Try to do dhanavatri homam from a learned prohit, A correct homa may cost more than 30,000/-. Of simply you can do a small sankalpa at AVP coimbatore, DHANAVANTRI temple, In this temple you can pay 100 or so for doing homam. You can do a money order. 3. Try to have your horoscope read through a proper astrologer for any type of dosha. 4. If any pariharam is done as per vedic rule, one should get remedy in one mandalam or 48 days. That is If one does a homam for rain, then rain should come. This is the nature rule. Thus if you are doing homam, make sure you get result. If you are not getting result, that means the person who has done the homam, does not know how to do it. 5. Lastly for backup do a maha mrityunjaya homam at thirukadaiyur, kumbakkoanm(Lord shiva saved markandeya and slained Yama ). If you can do homam in your local temple it is also fine. Or simply chant maha mrityunjay mantra for more than 1008 times daily till you get relief. 6.Search for a correct ayurvedic heriditary physician, they can mostly be found in kerala, don't go for bams degree physicians, Or go for a correct siddha medicine. Don't get fooled by quacks who say that i can give you cure, medicine costs rupees 1000 per month, and if you pay him, He will promptly refuse saying pay me for complete 10 months, because i cannot prepare medicine for 1 month. 100% he is a fraud. 7. I have heared(Only heard) that kolli malai near salem is famous for siddars, I don't have more inputs regarding the same. BEST OF LUCK
