Tiruvannamalai: The Abode of Fire
Located approximately 185 km from Chennai, Tiruvannamalai is one of the Pancha Bhoota Sthalams (five elements temples), representing the element of fire (Agni).
- Arunachaleswarar Temple: A sprawling and ancient Shiva temple at the foot of Mount Arunachala, this is the spiritual heart of Tiruvannamalai. Its towering gopurams (gateway towers) and intricate carvings are a sight to behold.
- Mount Arunachala: Revered as Lord Shiva himself, many pilgrims undertake the ‘Girivalam’ (circumambulation) around the 14-km sacred hill, a profound spiritual experience believed to cleanse sins and bestow blessings.
- Ramanashram: The ashram of the revered saint Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, offering a serene environment for meditation and spiritual introspection.
Chidambaram: The Cosmic Dance
Situated about 220 km from Chennai, Chidambaram is another of the Pancha Bhoota Sthalams, representing the element of Aakash (Ether/Space).
- Thillai Nataraja Temple: This unique temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva in his dancing form as Nataraja, the Cosmic Dancer. It’s one of the rare temples where Shiva is worshipped in his anthropomorphic form rather than the conventional Lingam.
- Architectural Marvel: The temple complex is an architectural masterpiece, with intricate carvings depicting various dance forms, a golden roof, and a mystical “Chidambaram Rahasyam” (secret of Chidambaram) that symbolizes the void, or formless aspect of God.
- Significance: It’s a significant pilgrimage site for both Shaivites and Vaishnavites, as the complex also houses a Lord Vishnu shrine.
