2. Prominence of the Shrine : This is yet another spectacular Dravidian #architectural marvel, the Brahmapureeswar Temple. Not known to many, this temple is tucked away on the outskirts of the #Trichy city at a serene village near #Tirupattur.

3. An Early morning visit is recommended for a great #spiritual ambience. The main deity worshiped here is Bhagwan Brahmapureeswarar, an avatar of Mahadev Shiva.
Shri Brahma, the creator among the Trimurtis [Trident- Brahma, Vishnu & Mahesh] appears

4. to worship Mahadev Brahmeeswarar here. Thursday is considered auspicious for worshiping Brahma. Devotees believe that if they worship at this temple, they can change what is written on one’s head (fate – as per Sanatana Dharma all the good & bad events
@VipashaRanjan @sfeksk

5. in one's life are already written on your head at the time of birth). Also it is believed that, only if it is written in your #destiny, you will end up visiting this temple. At #Thirupattur only Bhagwan Brahma is having a dedicated Sannidhi.

6. Where Mahadev Shiva blessed Brahma is what is known as Brahmapureeswar. It is believed that Bhagwan Brahma at Thirupattur is so powerful the he can change the fate his devotees. As per #Sattology #Brahma is the creator of living beings. @Maha_periyava_ @rightwingchora

7. Once He had the egoistic thought that Him & Shiva both have five heads, so both must be equals. Mahadev decided to teach Brahma a lesson. He removed Brahma's fifth head which gives Brahma the power of creation.

8. Mahadev asked him to take birth on #Earth as a human & travel all across the world doing rituals in favor of him. Brahma did the same & reached #Tirupattur. He made 12 Shiva Lingas out of sand & worshiped Shiva. Pleased by Brahma, He & Mata Parvati appeared
@Aravindh_partha

9. gave Him darshan under the #Magizha tree & liberated Him from His curse & gave back his creation rights. Hence Mahadev is called Sri Brahmapureeswarar here. Also Devi Parvathi gave back Shri Brahma all His sheen & that’s why Devi called Brahma Sampath Gowri. @Mahender_Chem

10. He also gave the power to change the fate of devotees who worship here. Hence Brahma here is considered to be the one who can change what is written one’s fate. If devotees #worship at this temple they are believed to get relief from all kinds of Dosha. @artist_rama

11. First they need to worship Shiva, Brahma & then Devi Brahmanayagi. Now, speaking about the Temple #architecture, it is a 2000-year-old #Temple which reflects the Chola style of architecture. There are separate shrines for Shri Brahmapureeswarar & Devi Brahmanayaki.

12. A huge 6.3 feet long statue of Shri Brahma can be seen by the side of the Mahadev shrine. He appears to be in his Padmasana pose on a Lotus flower. The 12 Shiva Lingas worshiped by Shri Brahma is also kept intact in this temple. @artist_rama @ramapriya1989 @csranga

13. The most interesting aspect of this temple #architecture is that it is constructed in such a way that the sunlight falls directly on the main Moorthy of Mahadev every year exactly during the 15, 16 & 17th day of the Panguni month in Tamil calender (March 15th to April 13th).

14. The most auspicious occasion to visit temple is during the 10 day festival during the Panguni month which comes during March- April every year. It is believed people who experience hurdles in their life can get their fate rewritten by making a visit to the temple @desi_thug1

15. #TamilNadu , being the land of temples and pure spiritual energy, I wonder why this temple is often missed by travelers especially the #SPIRITUAL seekers. The very reason that Brahma temples are very rare adds more significance to the #Brahmapureeswarar @LostTemple7

16. Temple & makes it a must visit in while you head out to Tamil Nadu. There are 12 Shiva Lingams in Temple complex, which includes the garden adjacent to the temple. These Shiva Lingams were installed & worshipped by Shri Brahma. @InfoVedic @Lost_History1 @shreekanth2020

17. Most of these Shiv Lingams are housed in separate shrines, which are situated around the Brahma Theertham. Brahma Theertham is pond from which Shri Brahma took water for performing puja to Mahadev. These 12 shrines of Mahadev which comprise the Bramhapureeswarar @AnkitaBnsl
