Tirumullaivoyal Masilamaneeswarar Temple

Tirumullaivoyal near Ambatthur Chennai is on the way from Ambathur to Avadi, All buses from Ambathur to Avadi stop by Tirumullaivoyal bus stop. One has to travel from Main road via Pachai Amman temple to reach Tirumullaivoyal temple. The Google map location of Tirumullaivoyal Masilamaneeswarar temple is as follows,


Tirumullaivoyal Temple is unique in many ways. One is that the swayambu lingam is covered with sandalwood paste all through the year. Only on tamil month Chitirai, Sadayam Nakshatra day, the sandalwood paste is removed and a new sandawood paste is applied to the lingam.

Agasthair.org details that Masilamaneeswarar refers to the Shiva who symbolises the aspect of  flawless gem as seen in their weblink below. The darshan of the Lingam without sandalwood paste is said to be the darshan of the light of eternal truth as explained in their weblink below. Chitra Sadayam in 2018 is on May 10 2018. Having darshan of Masilamaneeswarar on May 10 2018 during sunrise is said to very auspiciousn since we would get the darshan amidst Rishis, Siddhas and angels.

Sri Agasthya Vijayam, the monthly spiritual magazine details that there used to be a sannidhi for Dwara Shakthi Amman in this temple before 1990s. One had to have darshan of the dwara shakthi devi only through a small hole. After 1990s, somehow the devi sannidhi has been removed in the temple by mistake. 

Dwara shakthi Ambika is the devi who blesses women with Sowbhagyam and good children. Our bodies are said to have 9 Dwarams including eyes, ears, nose, mouth, places where we urinate/excrete, navel etc.

The sloka to be recited during the 3 days has also been detailed in their magazine. Chanting the slokas during menstrual period days blesses women with Sowbhayam, good children and relief from in laws problems as per Sri Agasthya Vijayam.

  • Om Godhayi kulkarani devi: First day
  • Om Kulavi malakarani devi : Second day
  • Om Badhu bakshana karani devi : Third day

Sthala Puranam of Tirumullaivoyal

Once Thondaiman Chakravarthy king was returning from battle where he could not defeat asuras. On his way back, his battle elephant's leg got caught in mullai flower creeper. The king cut the creeper with his sword. The Swayambu Lingam under the mullai kodi got cut by the sword and blood oozed out of the creeper area.

The king tried to kill himself since he had tried to cut the lingam. Lord Shiva gave darshan to the king here and said he will remain without flaws despite having a cut in the lingam. Hence the name Masilamani eswarar. Shiva has a Gaja Brishta Vimanam or the vimanam in the shape of the back of the elephant.

Shiva sent his nandhi along with the king to fight the  battle with asuras again. The King won the battle the second time, The king constructed the temple here and Nandhi Deva is seen near the Sthala Vriksham, Mullai Creeper here. 

Nandhi does not face Shiva here and faces outside. This is because nandhi was sent to battle along with King to defeat negative forces. Hence he faces outside till date.

Mullai Kodi/Creeper is the Sthala Vrisham here


Vellerukku Thoon/Pillar

The king brought two vellerukku thoon or pillars from the asuras and installed in front of the Shiva Lingam here. 

The Velerukku thoon/pillars are home to many celestial angelic beings well versed in medicine and cure even incurable diseases. Agasthiar.org details that devotees should circle the pillars and donate sesame oil, coconut oil and shikakai powder to poor people here in order to get cured of their diseases here. Also ven pongal is to be donated here. The weblink given above in this post details the same.

Also this temple is the place where Indra got cured of his nervous problem and hence worship here solves ones nervous problems.

  1. When I was applying for a loan to purchase my building as a small business owner in a tough situation, conventional banks said they could not help me. Mr Pedro, a loan officer, sat down with me, heard my situation and decided that I was worth taking a chance on. Here we are 3 years later and I have just renewed my loan for another 7 years. I couldn’t have purchased my building without the help of Mr Pedro and will be forever indebted to them for giving me a chance when no one else would."
    I will recommend you to contact a loan officer Mr Pedro on the information below if you need any financial assistance.
