Little did I know that Lord would bestow us with such a blessed day, when i started on a trip to our native, Kodanagar, Cheyyar with my parents on Sunday. We had set on trip to visit our ancestral village to extend our support for the renovation work of our village temple which was recently damaged due to thunder strike.But there was a divine intervention & We were in for a sweet surprise.
Upon arriving @Kodanagar, we came to know from our neighbor that the Maha Samprokshanam of Injimedu Temple (my Husband's ancestral place) was to take place the next day (11.07.2016) & that His Holiness the 46th Azhagiyasingar has taken abode at Injimedu. Immediately we decided to take a detour & visit Injimedu. We were doubtful if the temple would be open as it was almost Noon & Injimedu being a remote village about 25 kms away from our Native. But then, we decided we make an attempt & to atleast see the yagasala if the temple was closed.
But to our pleasant surprise, Injimedu was brimming with activity when reached there around 1:30 pm. Not only we were bestowed with a lovely darshan of the prime deity & Thirumanjanam, but we were also able to meet privately His Holiness the 46th Srimad Azhagiya Singar of Sri Ahobila Mutt & get his Blessings. Incidentally we also had a spare set of Saree& Dhoti, Coconuts (mother had taken them for our native deity) which we were able to place at the Lotus Feet of the Lord of Injimedu temple.
When we had set out on our trip yday Morng, Injimedu wasn't even was on Itinerary. But with the divine Intervention, We could seek the blessings of the Lord & the Acharyan on such an auspicious occasion.
I would like to enlighten the readers about the History of Injimedu. Do read below :
Injimedu – Yagnamedu Injimedu which as known as "Yagnamedu", as the days progressed, this sthalam is called as "Injimedu". This sthalam is also called as "Yagna vedhikai", as lots of yagnams (Yagams / Homams) are performed in this sthalam for the world peace and for human community.
Sri Yagna Samrakshana Ramar: The Ramar, Lakshmana, Seetha, Garuder and Hanumar were sculpted 2000 years back. Then the purvikaas of this village, now known as Madabhushi Bharadwaja Gotras performed many yaagar round the year 365 days continuously.
In that process Sri Ramar along with Lakshmanar Seetha, Garuder and Hanumar appeared in the sky and blessed the villages who were conducting the yagnam, that he will stay in this village for the Yagna Samrakshanam. From then the Ramar was known as “Yagna Samrakshana Kalyana Ramar”. To symbolize this the Bow top head is molded with “Narasimhar’s face” (Lion face). This is unique in India, no where else the Sri Ramar and Lakshman’s bow top head is with “Lion’s face”. The Hanumar here is famous for solving the marriage problems, Puthra Bhagyam, etc.
Srimath Aadhivan Sadagopan Yatheendra Mahaadesikan and Injimedu: Srimath Ahobila mutt was started by Srimath Aadhivan Sadagopa yateendra mahaadesikan swamy, who was born almost 630 years back, has came forward in constructing lots of temples. In this aacharya parampara, Sri Sashta Parankusha yateendra mahaadesikan swamy, who was the sixth Azhagiyasingar has constructed and helped almost 60 temples and has put in lots of great scholars who are well versed in vedams to maintain those temples. Then at that time Sri Sashta Parankusha Yatheendra Maha Desikan who were doing their “Sancharam” visited this village. By knowing the history of this village, HH renovated and reconstructed this village and temple along with constructing “Sri Lakshmi Narasimhar Sannathi”, and gave another name as “Narasimha Puram”. After many rulers and lots of Invaders, these temples were destroyed and only the Ramar temple was left.
This is the birth place of two of the most important Jeeyars of Sri Ahobila Math: the 34th Pontiff Sri Satakopa Ramanuja Yatheendra Mahadesikan and the 42nd Pontiff Sri Sriranga Satakopa Yateendra Mahadesikan.
Later again HH 42nd Azhagiyasingar of Sri Ahobila Mutt, Sri SriRangaSadagopa Yatendra Mahadesikan renovated the existing temple by constructing new temple for Sri Perundevi Nayika Sameta Sri Varadarajar in 1950s.
With a contended heart & wondering about the mysteries of such Divine Interventions, we returned back home & enroute visited Thennangur temple & Uthiramerur Perumal Temple.
