Adi Jagannatha Perumal Temple, Thirupullani – Chakra
Theertham
The
temple tank of Adi Jagannatha Perumal Temple, Thirupullani deserves special
mention. It is known as the Chakra theertham. It is also one of Theerthams
associated with Ramanathaswamy Temple, Rameswaram. In contrast to most temple
tanks of today, this tank is filled to the brim with clear water – a
heartwarming sight indeed.
According
to old-timers, about two decades back, this temple tank was almost dry, with
just a few puddles of wet mud here and there. Thanks to the efforts of Srimad
Andavan, this tank has been restored to its original glory. Even in the current
times, it is possible to preserve nature – if only man realizes the value of
this activity.
Adjacent
to the vast theertham, neatly maintained Sannidhi for Swami Desikan can be
seen.
