Marathurai Kathyayani
Compiled by
P.R.Ramachander
Marathurai
village is situated in the road
between Kumbhakonam and
Manalmedu, two km from Pandanallur.The presiding deity in the village temple is
Kathyayni.. This temple was also housed in a hut inside the
forest in early days and about 40 years back , it was built with stone.
Kathyayani is
supposed to be the daughter of sage Kathyanana . She is also called Kathayi in
Tamil nadu, which means , the mother who protects. On the southern side of the wall of the inner temple are Madurai Veeran, Bommi and Vellayammal who all are in the standing
pose. Also the mud statues of the seven Munis
Vaazhmuni, Chemmuni , Muthu
Muni , Jatamuni , Palakkattu muni , Veda Muni and Lada muni On the western side are three Statues of
Pachai Amman facing east and on the
northern side are SAngili Karuppan , Veeran, Madan and Nagar.On
the main entrance in south is Lord Ganapathi and near the mani entrance of north is Bala
Murugan.On the southern side path leading to the main temple are three mud
Statues of Pachai Amman and Pookurathi
and the north is Valli amman carrying a baby in her lap. In the next entrance
on the Southern side is is the
Ceremonial statue of Kathai Amman and on the northern side is the Pachayamman.
In the sanctum
sanctorum is Kathyayani Amman who holds
a Parrot and lotus flower in her hand,
folds her left leg and hangs down her
right leg.. A five hooded serpent is holding Umbrella over her head.
Kathyayani or Kathayi
is called by this name because
she protects her devotees. Some believe that she is Valli Amman because
she protected the fields of her father.
The idol of Valli Ammai is seen to hold
a baby child on her lap. Pachayamman, the Goddess Parvathi is supposed to do
penance at this temple, It seems the Gods of eight directions wanted to stop her penance. Then Val (Vaazh?) muni(Kuzhandai muni ) youngest of the Seven munis (sages) , who were the sons of Nambi Raja and brothers of Valli fought with those eight heads of directions
and brought back their eight heads. .He gave one head each to
his elder brothers and kept two heads
for himself. The idols of these
seven Munis are on the southern side of the temple. Each of the elder brothers are seen keeping
one head each below their right leg but
Val muni is seen keeping one head below his right arm and one head
below his right leg. Apart from the Seven Munis, the idols of
Madhurai veeran , Kanjamalai easwarar, Bommi, Vellayammal and Katteri karuppan are on the souther side of the temple
and Three Pachayamman statues
and that of Poonkurathi on the west
side and Changili Karuppan , Veeran, Madan
and Nagar on the northern side.
