27th July 2014:
Sri Villiputhur Temple is an ancient heritage, over 2000-years old. It is the birthplace of two of the most important Saints - Periyazhvar and Sri Andal. Significantly the temple tower is used in the State Government's official seal. Many priests from this rural belt who migrated to Siam several centuries back are part of the coronation rituals of the Thai Royalty.
The annual CAR festival to mark Sri Andal’s birth celebration attracts numerous pilgrims, Vedic scholars and celebrated artists. They take an active part in the cultural fest spread over ten nights. The moments of meditation during the Celestial Nectar evening took the jam-packed audience into a state of deep silence and realm of joy.
