NAVAGRAHA TEMPLE TOUR
SIGNIFICANCE OF NAVAGRAHAÂ
Celestial bodies, referred to as Grahas, are thought to influence human well-being. Graha, meaning ‘to attract,’ signifies their impact.
These nine planets traverse the celestial sphere around Nakshatra (Stars), twenty-seven of which repeat in the Hindu Calendar monthly.
The planets’ movements about Nakshatras are believed to shape one’s destiny, influencing thoughts, actions, status, and prosperity. Worshiping specific Grahas for distinct needs is believed to grant devotees their desired blessings.
THE LEGEND OF NAVAGRAHA TEMPLESÂ
In Hindu folklore, Sage Kalava, afflicted by severe ailments and leprosy, sought help from the Navagrahas, the nine planetary deities. Pleased by his devotion, the planets offered a cure.
However, Brahma, the god of creation, angered by their generosity, cursed the planets with leprosy. They descended to earth in Vellurukku Vanam, now known as Suryanar Kovil. To lift the curse, the planets prayed to Shiva, who granted them the area, instructing them to bless devotees.
Thus, Suryanar Kovil became a sacred place where the Navagrahas bestow their divine grace upon worshippers seeking relief and blessings.
