Subject: SHRIMAN NARAYANA - THIRUNANGUR DIVYADESANGAL Get rid of 
your incurable diseases... Worship GajendraVaradhan at Thirumanikkudam 
Divyadesam 
                                
  SHRIMAN 
NARAYANAYA NAMAHA!   
The Thirumanikkudam 
Divyadesam is believed to cure incurable diseases. 
 It is 
said that Thakkan, had 27 daughters. All of them were married to 
Chandran(Moon) 
treat them 
equally. However, he was fond of Rohini and always stayed 
 
'with her, 
neglecting the others. All the 26 sisters of Rohini, complained  
to 
Thakkan about the ill treatment. Irked by the complaint, Thakkan cursed 
Chandran 
to suffer from incurable 
disease.             
Day by day, Chandran was loosing his shine and sheen. He was a 
worried  lot. To get out of the curse, Chandran visited Divyaddesams. 
He worshipped in Srirangam, Thiru Indalur, Thalachangadu and came to 
Thirumanikkudam and worshipped Perumal. Here Perumal appeared before him as 
Varadarajar and granted him boons. Chandran's disease and 
curse disappeared. He was very happy.   
As you enter 
the Thirumanikkudam Kovil, you will see Bali peetom and Garudazvar Sannadhi. 
There are Mahamandapam and Ardha Mandapam. In the Garbhagraha, Sri Varadaraja 
gives seva, facing east in standing posture. He has four hands. The rear 
hands have Chanku and Chakkaram and the front hands show Abhaya and  Ooru 
mudhras.To His right side, standing over a square shaped  lotus 
peetom, Sri Devi graces with a lotus on her left hand and right 
hand lowered downwards. Bhooma devi, is in the left side of Perumal, 
with a lotus flower in her right hand and left hand lowered downwards. Ursava 
moorthys are nearby. In the Ardha Mandapam, Nammazvars statue is seen in sitting 
posture.
