#Theerthamalai #Temple located in #Dharmapuri Dist. #TamilNadu
Also known as Theerthagireeswar (Theertha+Giri+Eswar)
Theertha = Holy Water
Giri = Hill
Eswar = Bhagwan Shiva.
There is a deep connection of this #Temple with #Ramayana
@sattology @Mahender_Chem @mamatarsingh

When Sri Ram killed Ravana – to nullify his Brahma Hatya Pataka Dosha on him he did Abhisheka to Shri Shiva. Unfortunately Sri Hanuman could not reach the Temple on time with #Ganga water, Thus, Sri Rama shot an arrow on a hill stone creating the Rama Theertha & @rightwingchora

completed the Pooja. Rama Theertha is a tiny water fall spring about 9 meters high. The force will be same thru out the year even in hot summer, & no one could identify the source of the tiny water fall coming from hill stone.
