Aavani Month Special -

Vinayaka Chathurthi


Before starting any new things in our life, we pray towards Vinayakar who is also called as Ganapathy, Vigna Rajan, Pillayar, etc. The worship of Vinayakar as the main deity is called as "Ganapathyam". He is one among the son of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvathi. We find huge and small temples (even in small streets) for Pillayar in our country. This Aavani month, we celebrate "Vinayaka Chathurthi" festival towards Him.

Achchirapakkam - Sri Achchu Muritha Vinayakar

Achchirapakkam - Sri Achchu Muritha Vinayakar
Acharapakkam, also called as "Achirapakkam", is a small village in Kanchipuram District, Tamil Nadu. It is about 90 km from Chennai and the nearest well-known temple is Madhuranthakam, Melmaruvathoor. We can find "Achchu Muritha Vinayakar" sannadhi as soon as we enter towards Sri Aatshikondeeswarar Temple (one among 275 Paadal Petra Sthalam). It is said that Siva Peruman installed this Vinayakar before His passage to kill Tripura Asuras.
