Sri Mahalingeshwara #Temple situated at a small village called #Vayalathur, a small agricultural village which is 15 km south of #Kanchipuram (Kanchi- the spiritual capital of South India), #Tiruvannamalai Dist., TamilNadu
Sri Mahalingeshwarar is present along with His consort Sri Brigu Sundaragujambal. It is a 9th Century #Temple built during the Pallava Reign. Over the years, due to natural & human negligence the Temple got depleted & left in shambles. @almightykarthik @Itishree001 @pujari_anup
It was in 2015, a committee was formed with the help of local villagers and renovation work started to reconstruct the Temple structure. On 10.06.2016 the Maha Kumbabhishekham was performed in a grand manner and on 31.07.2016 Mandal Abhishekham was performed.
Temple has Dwarabalaka Vinayagar , Subramaniyar (Karthikeya Bhagwan), Koshta Gods (Nardhana Vinayakar (Dancing Ganapathi), Dakshinamoorthi, Maha Vishnu, Brahma, Durga are present around the Mahalingeshwarar Sanctum;
(Brahmi, Vaishnavi, Chamundi are present in the Ambal Sanctum) &
there are separate Praharas for Chandikeshwarar, Navagrahas & Kala Bhairav. #Sattology says during the reign of Pallavas in the 9th Century, then the new building of bricks was used to build this temple.
The reign of Pallava dynasty & then the Chola dynasty took over the reins of the Temple in the 11th century during which the construction of the Temple was completed. The Temple was took care by two merchants in the 11th century. @desi_thug1 @Jayalko1 @hathyogi31 @InfoVedic
This Temple is older than the Tanjore Brahadeeshwarer Temple. It seems that a heavy flood on the river Cheyyar has damaged the Temple then. Taking advantage of the situation, Samanites damaged the Temple further & ransacked its wealth leaving only Sri Mahalingeshwar Linga &
His Consort Sundaragujambal statue/idol behind.

After Modi's #Trichy youth conference, the next morning when police were clearing up their mini-control room, they found 5 strange boys who were roaming there with bags. When police enquired - "sir, we are frm Subramaniapuram in Trichy. Whatever political meeting or conference
is held in this ground, we come here on the same night or morning hours to collect the #Liquor bottles to sell in the scrap shop for 50 paisa to Re.1 per bottle & we used to earn Rs 200 to Rs 400 on each such event. Even in the last #DMK meeting the next day we collected around
1500 bottles. But for Modi's #BJP meeting, we could not find even a single bottle in the whole ground. We are coming round & around & not a single bottle in any corner of the ground in Trichy, we are much disappointed, sir!". #Police seem were stunned & pleasantly surprised

Which is the World’s oldest Tape Recorder? by Sri Kanchi Paramacharya Mahaswami
Once way back in 1940s/50s someone was conducting an interview with Kanchi Mahaperiyava. That gentleman recorded the interview in a Tape recorder.
@justRamvenkat @KanchiMatham
Periyava then posed a question:
“Does anyone know which is the oldest known #tape #recorder?”
Nobody was able to answer. Then Mahaperiyava asked another question:
“How did #Vishnu #Sahasranamam come to us?”
Everyone said Bhishma Pitamah gave it.
All agreed. @Itishree001
Then #Mahaperiyava posed another query:
