Veera Raghava Swami Temple (Thiruevvul), Thiruvallur
Veera Raghava
Swamy Temple is a Hindu Temple dedicated to Lord Vishnu located at Thiruvallur
Town near Chennai City in Thiruvallur District of Tamilnadu. This Temple is
also called as Thiruevvul. The temple has a five-tiered Rajagopuram (gateway
tower) and enshrined within a granite wall. The complex contains all the
shrines and the temple tank is located to the west of the temple. Amavasya days
are believed to be auspicious for visiting this temple.
Constructed
in Dravidian style of architecture, the temple is glorified in the Divya
Prabandha, the early medieval Tamil canon of the Azhwar saints from the 6th – 9th
centuries AD. Tiruvallur is one of the Prarthana Sthalams like Tirupati,
Oppiliappan Koil and Gunasekaram. It is counted as one among the 108 Divya
Desams dedicated to Vishnu. Vishnu is worshipped as
Veera Raghava Perumal and his consort Lakshmi as Kanakavalli Thayar.
The
temple is believed to be of significant antiquity and is believed to be
initiated by the Pallavas of the late 8th century AD, with later
contributions at different times from Thanjavur Nayaks. The temple has three inscriptions dating from the
Chola period. This temple is under the administration of Sri Ahobila Math,
presently presided over by Srimad 46th Azhagiyasingar Srimat Srivan Sadagopa
Sri Ranganatha Yatheentra Mahadesigan, as Hereditary Trustee.
