Thiru Mudhu Kundram Temple

Vridhachalam also known as Thiru Mudhu Kundram is the abode of primordial Lord Shiva in Tamil nadu.


Praying Lord Shiva after taking a dip in the holy river ManiMuktha River one will be liberated from all the sins and be blessed with salvation.It is more than taking a dip in River Ganges at Varanasi. That is why this place is also known as VridhaKasi.


In this place is everything is in five numbers.


Even the during the days of Pralaya [Armageddon], this place does not get destroyed and the world comes back into existence again from this place.


Birth, Death, Living,Pray, or even Thought about this place will definitely take one towards Mukthi [Enlightenment].


The tree at this temple is more than 3000 years old.


In saiva tatva, there are twenty eight Agamams  that are considered very holy.Based on that there are twenty eight Shiva Lingas placed by Lord Muruga.
