Respected friends, I read the last line and I am forced to respond. Yes- I was taken to the temple by Mr Rajaram. As per the current procedures in the temple, he had to fill up the form, remit the money and stay in the previous night itself along with me. In the hurry, in the location name of the devotee, he wrote Rajaram Krishnamurthy.Name of the person attending on the devotee-R. Gopalakrishnan The procedures followed, in the anakottil all were assembled. The assistant priest called the names. The third name was Mr Rajaram Krishnamurthy. He resisted telling he was the attender, and Myself was the devotee. The priests could makeup who was attender and devotee from his behavior. They showed him the application filled. Chief priest ordered- It is common the devotees resisting telling they are assistants in the temple.
Some force made Mr Rajaram silent and he drank the theertham. I was following him as assistant. Since I could not cope up with his speed, in the 2nd round Mr Sharma joined as assistant. He could better control Mr Rajaram. All other devotees completed 2nd round , vomited the poisonous item, washed feet and face and took payasam, and started moving to home. But Mr Rajaram still continued 3rd round and finally vomited a small wooden piece in the shape of a person along with some food item, badly smelling in the 5th round. Finally, he was made to wash face and the priests waiting for him gave a small quantity of payasam left out. Mr Rajaram told me - he felt relief, that piece of item might be compelling him to write bad about others.All these things were witnessed by Mr Narayanaswamy along with me. A sudden voice heard Thadasthu Gopalakrishnan On Saturday, 15 June, 2024 at 08:35:49 pm IST, Rajaram Krishnamurthy <keyarinc...@gmail.com> wrote: Gopalakrishnan: “Tie up the mad man overnight.

Gopalakrishnan 15-6-2024 1 Introduction Thiruvizha temple is situated 40 km away from Ernakulam onthe Ernakulam –Cherthalai road. There is a Shiva temple which is consecrated ina pit where water keeps on ebbing. It is believed that people who are mental problemsor people who have been under the control evil effects set on them by blackmagicians get cured at this temple. The famous Nadaswara Vidhwan, ThiruvizhaJaya Shankar hails from this place. 2Legend There was a very dense forest in this area belonging toarakkal panikkars. There was a pond in the forest which had lot of tortoises. Agroup of hunters called Ulladaas used to catch these tortoises for theirliving. They would introduce a long sharp staff in to the pond and keep onhitting. Then the injured tortoises would come up. Then they would catch them. Once when a lady oftheir tribe was doing it, suddenly she saw blood ebbing out of the pond. Theentire pond became the colour of the blood. Then they started pumping out thewater of the pond. After threefull days of removing the water, they saw a stone in the bottom of the pondfrom which the blood was oozing out. On the fourth day, a great sage came and applied sacred ashon the wound. The blood immediately stopped. He told the people there to builda temple over the pond without removing the stone from that place. They filledup the pond, partially by sand. Even today, we can see the Linga only at thebottom of the pond, where water would be constantly oozing out. In rainy season, the idol will be covered by water and wewould not be able to see it. So in rainy season the pooja is performed only tothe Uthsava moorthi. 3 History Immediately after the temple was built a mad man belonging tothe Thalakkatt family ofnairs used to daily visit this temple. The devotees were afraid of himand prayed to the Lord to cure him. That day, one nair was instructed in hisdream “Tie up the mad man overnight. Next day, a new plant will appear near thetemple. Collect one hand full of leaves from this plant and hand it over to thepriest. He would take out the juice inside the temple, mix it with cow’s milkand do Pandeeradi pooja to the God, Then keep, three chakras (The coin ofTravancore) before the temple and take out the milk and make the mad man drinkit. (The mixture wouldfirst become blue, then become dark red and then black and later become yellowand then white.) One hour after he drinks the milk, give him tepid water todrink. Then that mad man would vomit a lot. Then in the noon make him eat themilk kheer (paal Payasam) offered to the Yakshi. He would become all right.” This was followed andthe man regained his sanity. People who were mad were then brought to the temple and the sametreatment followed. Most of them became all right. People who have mental issues, are brought to the temple inthe previous night itself. Then after the evening worship of the temple theyattend the saffron (kuruthi)worship to the “Bhootha kala Yakshi” which is outside the temple. Thennext day the treatment described above will be done at 9 Am. Most of thembecome absolutely all right. So large number of pilgrims bring the persons showing mentalissues from all over India to this temple. 4 Holy leaves The right to bring the holy medicinal leaves is forever withThalakkat family, to which the original mad man belonged. There is a custom of worshipping lord Shiva by abhisheka(anointing) of tender coconut water and milk, The abhisheka(ceremonialdrenching) with milk for 1001 times is special to this temple. 5 KanichukulangaraDevi. It is believed that the Goddess in Kanichukulangara temple inthe neighborhood of this temple is the daughter of Lord Shiva. So everyday noonthe Goddess is brought to this temple for an offering of Payasam along with herfather 6 Opening time The temple opens at 5 AM immediately there is Abhisheka and the god is adorned withsacred ash and sandalwood paste. Immediately puffed rice (Pori) is offered tothe god. At 8.15 Am,Pandeeradi pooja is done and later the medicinal milk is distributed to thepatients. At 11 am, Payasam is offered to Lord Vishnu who is having atemple in this complex itself. This also is given to the patients after theyvomit the milk taken by them. 7 Temple festival In March April, there is Arattu festival in this temple.There is a festival in the month of Dhanu (Margazhi-November –December), whichlasts for ten days. 8 Present procedures.
