It is a true experience of the devotees that all our wishes are fulfilled by worshiping these Ashtams.The temple of "Thiruvannamalai Sri Annamaliyar", which can be thought of as a "fire of thought", can be seen here.


HISTORY



The Thiruvannamalai Temple is one of the oldest temples. Lord Shiva of this temple is called "Annamaliyil, Arunachaleswara" Ambal is also known as "Hunger Striker, Abidakujambal". Thiruvannamalai Agni is a fire place in the Panchabhutham. Many of the “Pallavas, Cholas, Hoysalas, Vijayanagara kings and Nayak kings” have rebuilt the shrine at various times and donated the temple's pooja.


According to legend, Lord Shiva, Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu were at the center of a debate about the origin and the outcome of Lord Shiva. He then incarnated to Lord Vishnu to see the bottom of Lord Shiva. Although Lord Brahma flew into the sky to see the ceiling of Lord Shiva with the image of an alien bird, he could not know the origin of Lord Shiva. Knowing this lie, Lord Shiva cursed Brahma as there is no temple anywhere in the world. The incident led to the lord calling the Lord Shiva "unbeatable."


"Aranam" means "fire in red." “Salem” means “mountain”. The mountain was named Arunachalam because it was a red burning mountain with a red burning fire. When Arunagirinathar, who was humiliated by the death of his father, jumped down from the tower of this sacred Thiruvannamalai temple, he was saved by Lord Muruga Peruman and was restored to a state of grace. He also composed the song "Thiruppukazhil", singing the praises of Lord Murugan.


RAMANASRAMAM


This is the site where one of the Tamil Siddhas of Thiruvannamalai, the "Medikadar", was buried. It is believed that the Siddhas are still living in different forms in this hill and in the forests surrounding the hill. The Thiruvannamalai temple has attracted many siddhas and saints since this time. At the foot of the hill is a samadhi and an ashram of the "Seshathiri Swamis" who lived a hundred years ago and benefited from the masses with his own deeds.


GIRIVALAM


Thiruvannamalai Girivalam comes on the day of "Chitra Pournami", and those who worship Annamaliyar and fasting will be removed. They say that all the options are sure to be fulfilled. The temple can be witnessed by millions of devotees that day.
