This is an unplanned trip of ours and I made the preparation in the last minute. We have visited lot of temples and hence I am posting them all in Individual posts with their name as the title of the temple.

நந்திபுர விண்ணகரம் - நாதன் கோயில் (கும்பகோணம்)

We reached Kumbakonam on the 27th Morning and got ready. Somewhere around 07:30 AM we started our trip. The Driver took us to " Nathan Koil" alias " Nandhi Pura Vinnagaram". this temple is under the control of Vanamaamalai Mutt. Directly we entered the sannathi of Moolavar. He is called as "Adhi Srinivasar", " Sri Jagannatha perumal", " Nandhi pura Nathan". etc. Bhattacharyar was explaining the importance of the preseiding deity. It seems that Lord Rama came here during the end of his Avatar to take Krishna Avatar, so if you worship this perumal it is as good as visiting both Rama & Krishna. Thirumangai Alwar has sung 20 songs where he had considered perumal as Rama in the first 10 songs and Krishna in the next 20 songs.

Moolavar is seated with Sri Devi & Bhumi Devi Thaayar. He looks pleasant as usual and he is seen with Prayoga Chakram and Sangam. He is twice as powerful as Lord Narasimha and his Ukram is also twice as Lord Narasimha. This Kshethram is also called as Shenbagaranya Kshetram. Thaayar is Shenbagavalli Thaayar and Sri Shuktha Homam is performed in this temple during every Sukla paksham.
