MY 30TH POST IN THIS BLOG ON THE OCCASION OF '1OTH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATIONS OF PALAKKADWALKS BLOG' 🌷🌷🌷

RENOVATED SHREE SHANTHI DURGA PARAMESHWARI DEVI TEMPLE (KULA DEVI OF ELAPPULLY SHASTRIKAL FAMILY - ASHTASAHASRAM SECT OF IYER CASTE)

Temple is based on an Upanishadhic message Thamasoma Jyothirgamaya. Remove darkness from our minds by receiving light called knowledge. Mirror signifies self realisation and based on Advaitha principle ie, jeevathma and paramathma are not much different. If you abandon all loukika thrishnas created by maya/illusion such as kaama, krodha, moha your athma will join parabhrama after death (creator god)
