Arulmighu Madhusoothanaperumal Kovil - Parakkai - Temple (Parakkai)

India / Tamil Nadu / Suchindram / Parakkai / Parakkai Road, Temple
Name of God :Mathusoothana perumal - Temple
WELCOME TO Arulmigu Mathusoothana perumal sevva sangam
OM NAMO NARAYANA,
The presiding deity, Lord Madhusudhana, in majestic splendour, with a serene countenance and four arms, is nearly five feet in height. Lord Vishnu appears in the form of Madhusudhana with four hands. While, two hands hold the disc and conch, the other right hand is held aloft in abaya hastha position and the left rests on the left thigh. He is seen with Goddesses Lakshmidevi and Bhoomadevi.

A noteworthy feature of the temple is the stone image of Garuda facing the deity. According to a legend, a sculptor who was an ardent devotee of the Lord etched an image of Garuda in wood while in Kanchipuram and as the bird was made according to Shilpa Shastras, it came to life and flew Southwards. After arriving at the Parakkai village, Garuda, it is said, had a dip in the tank in front of the temple and exclaimed "kandaen kulam", with joy. Immediately after, he hovered around the deity as though he was making a pradakshana and began to fly away.

An artisan, who was renovating a pillar at the temple, saw the bird and hurled a chisel at it. The bird fell down crying `Madhusudhana', much to the shock and disbelief of the man. As a result its right wing suffered a wound. A stone image was later carved at the spot where he fell.
