South Kasi Bhairava Temple in Tamil Nadu is the largest Bhairava Temple in Asia!
One of the largest Bhairava temples in the world is being built. Idols of 64 Bhairavas are kept in the same temple.
This Bhairava temple
Erode District is being built and developed at Rattaisuri Palayam near Awalpoonthurai on Gangeyam Road.
The world's largest 39-feet tall statue of Kalabhairava is formed at the entrance of the Rajagopuram.
You have to enter the temple through him.
It is believed that Bhairava is an avatar of Shiva. Bhairava's vehicle is a dog. Behind Kalabhairava is a gigantic dog figure.
When Vijay Sri Swamy, who is creating this world's largest Kalabhairava idol with the joint efforts of many people, says,
"I have been fond of dogs since I was a child. The dog is the vehicle of Bhairav. We had more than twenty dogs in our house. At such a young age, Bhairav filled me. The seed that fell in my mind seven years ago is now standing up as this grand temple for Bhairava. The dream that was budding in me has now come true. This is being accomplished only because of the love, joint efforts, cooperation and help of many people -
What fell as a small seed has grown into a temple and is now nearing completion. Everything was guided and guided by Kala Bhairav. It was possible because I followed the path shown by him. Accordingly, the restoration work of this Bhairava temple is now underway.
Nowhere else in the world is a 39-foot statue of Kalabhairava erected here. That's why it is in the world record book. Our South Kashi Bhairava Temple is the gateway to Asia's tallest 39 feet Kala Bhairava.
Usually in the temples there is a two feet tall idol of Bhairava on the south side. But it is noteworthy that this is where such a huge temple and a huge statue of Bhairava has been built. Our South Kashi Bhairava Temple is the gateway to Asia's tallest 39 feet Kala Bhairava.
The Mahakumbabishek ceremony of this temple called Thirkudamuzku will be held on March 13, 2023. It will be held after formal velvis and four periods of pujas.
Various events are taking place on the occasion of this Kumbabhishekam. The present time has become a period where people are looking back towards the tradition.
We are going to hold events like our traditional arts like Mayilattam and Waiilattam on a grand scale. From the 300-year-old Shiva temple in Awalpoonthurai village, two kilometers away, a thousand people bring the theertha for Kudamuzkuku.
Not only that, there will also be a Kummit festival. Hundreds of women are going to participate in this. Before the Kudamuzku which takes place on Monday morning at 10:15, there are various events on all three days, namely Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Another special feature of this temple is that there is a 650 kg gold Agarshan Bhairava idol. It is made entirely of gold. Those who worship it are getting benefits and resources. All people can anoint it with ghee while bathing.
Everyone can come and get blessings in this temple regardless of caste and religion. People can worship the statue of Bhairava inside the garbhagraham after tirukudamuz. People can perform all kinds of archans and abhishekams themselves. For this
There are no restrictions. In that way, it has become a temple for the general public, where everyone can worship regardless of caste, religion and ethnicity.
We are erecting idols for all 64 Bhairavas. 76,000 per idol and so far they have accepted the expenses for 28 idols. The rest of the expenses can be accepted by those who are able to help in this repair work. By doing this you can participate in the work of this Bhairava temple.
We have already done many things by setting up the Swarna Bhairava Peedam Foundation. Important among them are providing educational assistance to poor students, temple work, teaching yoga, helping patients with cancer etc. 12 doctors are helping us in this work.
The tirupani of this temple is like a village gathering and pulling a chariot. So those who want to lend a helping hand can take part in the spiritual work of Bhairava's temple work and receive Bhairava's grace," he said.
