Hare Krishna !! Guruvayurappa !!

 

Just thought I might mention a few temples I know of,

which are situated close to Guruvayur temple.

 

i) Mammiyoor Siva temple - < 10 mins walk from

Guruvayur temple. Lord Siva has moved to this place to

give room for Sri Guruvayurappan. A visit to Guruvayur

is considered incomplete by many, without visiting

Mammiyoor and taking Lord Siva's blessings.

 

ii) Sri Parthasaarathi temple - sreekovil modelled

after a chariot - adjacent to Guruvayur Railway

Station - this is the place where Lord Krishna offered

darshan in His Vishva roopam to Narada Muni who is

said to have performed penance (tapas) there with that

objective in mind.

 

iii) Sree Venkatachalapathi (Balaji) Temple - also

known as Thiruvenkitam - locally. It is easy to reach

from Sri Parthasarathi temple or from Mammiyoor side

as well. Fascinating chatur bhuja (4 handed) deity of

the Lord.

 

Normally autorickshaws will take you around to all the

three temples (i, ii,iii) as a package - they used to

charge something around Rs 30 - but I reckon, now it

might even be Rs.50. It will take less than 1 hour

that way.

 

iv) Also, another beautiful ancient temple worth

seeing would be Chovvalloor Siva temple. This would be

approx. 4-5 kms from Guruvayur (towards Thrissur).

 

v) Hari kanyakaa temple - Ariyannoor - the deity is

said to be Mohini murti - but now-a-days worshipped as

Devi. (5-6 kms towards Thrissur). Temple is not in

very good condition and closes in the morning after

puja at 09:30 AM !!!! [it is one of the protected

monuments under Archaeology dept.]

 

Also, make it a point to visit Gajarajan Kesavan's

memorial with his life like statue - and Maraprabhu -

adjacent to that. In the Panchajanyam guest house

compound is a small memorial for Sri Manaveda Raja. A

visit to these places should kindle in us many many

memories of Sri Guruvayurappan's apaara leela !! A

visit to these places should be a meditation on the

wonderful past-times enacted by our Lord for the sake

of these wonderful devotees.

 

A visit to Naaraayanaalayam - the residence and

memorial of Thirunaamaacharyan Sri Anjam Madhavan

Namboodiri, and also darshan of Poonthanam's Krishna

deity installed there would be to your advantage.

 

I think this information would be sufficient for you

to plan out and execute a comprehensive pilgrimage of

Guruvayur and nearabouts in a very short time !!!

 

Please visit:

http://www.guruvayurdevaswom.org/accomo.shtml

for knowing more on Accommodation provided by

Guruvayur Devaswom guest houses. (This page is part of

the official website of Guruvayur Devaswom.) - The

accommodation provided by Devaswom is usually cheap

and best. You could choose Panchajanyam (on the South

Nada - very close to temple) or Kausthubham (East

Nada).

 

I know many of this forum members would be knowing

all this, but still, I feel I should mention here for

the benefit of those who dont know - even if that be 1

or 2 persons.

 

Hare Krishna !

 

-sriram
