SWAMIMALAI-Tamil Nadu
It is situated on a small artificial hillock near Kumbakonam, Tanjore district. The six feet tall idol is known as Swaminatha, who is reputed to have initiated his father Siva into the power and meaning of OM the Pranava Mantra. The temple for Swaminatha, the son, is on a higher pedestal than that of the father(Siva).
ABOUT THE VEDA PARAYANAM PROGRAMME AT SWAMIMALAI
The eternal and sacred Vedas are the very basis or root of our Sanathana Dharma. Vedas are the sustaining divine force of the universe bestowing all round prosperity to the entire humanity. Vedic Studies, rendering Veda Parayanam and Veda Parayana Sravanam (i.e. attending Veda Parayanam), all these are the most effective means towards universal prosperity, one’s emancipation endowing ‘Parama Sreyas’.
His Holiness Jagadguru Sankaracharya Sri Chandrasekharendra Saraswathi Swamigal, the 68th Peetadhipathi of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam had taken upon Himself, with missionary zeal, the task of working for the preservation of Vedic tradition, culture, practice, and propagation of this vast Vedic treasure, in its pristine pure form, handed down to our generation by our scholarly ancestors. We are all indebted to the Sage of Kanchi, our Paramaacharya, as HH is popularly referred to, that but for His Holiness’s forethought, instinct and unstinted efforts, some of the rare sakhas like ‘Atharvana Sounaka’ would have been lost for ever.
With this background, Their Holiness Jagadguru Sri Jayendra Saraswathi Swamigal and Jagadguru Sri Sankara Vijayendra Sarawathi Swamiagl, the 69th & 70th Peetadhipathees of Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam directed that Nithya Veda Parayanam be organized at Swamimalai Sri SwaminathaSwamy Temple.
This apt selection of venue is significant that the “Poorvaasrama Kuladaivam” of HH MahaPeriava Sri Chandrasekharendra Sarawathi Swamigal is Swamimalai Sri SwaminathaSwamy; besides, Swamimalai is one of the six sacred Subramanya Kshetrams where the Divine Son Subramanya, assumed the name of Swaminathaswami and initiated “Pranavopadesam’ to Father Lord Siva.
