உழவாரப்பணி நாள்: 22.12.2013.  

We had  written about this seventh century  temple in our  earlier  post of March 17, 2013 HERE   The local villagers, with great efforts,  have been able to complete a major portion of the renovation work and the Kumbabishegam is to be held within the next two months. 

We had offered our services for doing the painting and white washing work.  The first batch of volunteers reached Perambakkam on the previous night itself along with all the requisite materials.  The owners of Meenakshi Ramakrishnan Kalyana Mandapam at Peramabakkam were kind enough to accommodate  our team for the overnight stay there.  Other team members  came directly to the temple next morning to join the uzhavarappani.

The work of our volunteers is better depicted by the photos uploaded here.  Incidentally, a young and energetic lady reporter from the Tamil Spiritual Magazine--Sakthi Vikatan joined us to have a first hand account of our group's activities.  After interacting with various members of our team and taking photographs, she happily joined us in our painting work.

 What we have done is only the primary coat of painting.  We will again visit this temple a week before the Kumbabishegam to give a final  finishing touch.

அருள்மிகு குழந்தைவல்லி சமேத கும்பேஸ்வரர் ஆலயம், சிற்றம்பாக்கம்

Chitrambakkam is a small village in the Kadambathur taluk of Thiruvallur district.  The local villagers have taken up the task of renovating a 7th century Sivan Temple which was in a dilapidated state. 

வினை தீர்த்த விநாயகர், வள்ளி தெய்வானை சமேத முருகப்பெருமான், கடாட்ச லிங்கம், தாயாருடன் உடனுறை லக்ஷ்மி நாராயண பெருமாள், சண்டிகேஸ்வரர் சூழ, குழந்தைவல்லி தாயாருடன் கும்பேஸ்வரப் பெருமான் அருளாட்சி நடத்தும் அற்புதத் திருத்தலமே திருச்சிற்றம்பாக்கம்.

Our group was approached by the renovation committee with a request  to explore the possibility of providing them at least 100 bags of cement.  Messages were sent through SMS to our volunteers during the beginning of this month.  Thanks to their overwhelming response, we have been successful in mobilising  an amount of Rs.33000/= within two weeks and the same was handed over to the members of the renovation committee last week.
